They all do it. They all tend to exaggerate a little here with height, and a little there with weight, always making the players out to be a little larger than the player actually is.
It’s constantly done at the college and high school level.
With Georgia defensive tackle Jordan Davis, that may be the opposite. He’s list at 6-foot-6, 340 pounds, but in person, he looks much, much larger than that—the size of a human battleship.
On Friday night in Atlantic City, N.J., Davis was the recipient of the prestigious Maxwell Football Club’s Chuck Bednarik Award as the Collegiate Defensive Player of the Year along with winning the Outland Trophy earlier this year.
