Brady Earnhardt - RB - 2010

[Jack Lambert]

Found this kid on scout. He had 1,286 yards rushing, 11 touchdowns, 58 tackles and two sacks on Defense. Hopefully his production will pick up this year some. He is only 5-8. 185 lbs., but does run a 4.48. I gues that is way too small for a HB.

Black RBs his size would already have offers from negro lovers at Florida and Tennessee.

He has the interest of 7 schools. Castewhores like Mack Brown, Urban Meyer, and probably Lane Kiffen, would never offer this man. I guess Sherman offered Ryan Swope, so maybe he will offer Earnhardt. Tech maybe. His best shot at an offer right now looks to be Vanderbilt. If he has any hope of another offer, he might need to get a little bigger.

Here is his scout profile

Thanks for finding all these guys Lambert.

I was looking at Scout.com and they have ZERO white tailbacks ranked out of the 50 or so so far. Things are still very nauseating. What have these sites got to lose by ranking even a few white RBs somewhat fairly. They are so spineless that they are afraid to even give an inch of effort. I give Mr. Tom Lemming just a little bit of credit for growing- lets say- maybe one vertebrae in his spine the last couple years, the rest of these "recruiting services" are run by utter weasels.

185lbs at 5'8 as a H.S Junior is absolutely fine size.
Any videos of him on Youtube so I can judge his talents?

 

[Jack Lambert]

Yeah 5'8 is a great size. But, since he is white most scouts think it is "too small."

Anyways Tough, I found one video on him. From what I saw, he is a power runner, with nice speed. I am not theanalyst you are, Tough, I'd like to see what you think of him. He is also one heck of a defensive play as well.

I'll check out the highlights sometime soon and tell you what I think. 5'8/ 185lbs is big enough for the FBS. In fact that is a pretty full frame for 5'8 and may even be bulky enough for the NFL too (he is already 5 lbs. heavier than Noel Devine at that height). Earnhardt is only a H.S Jr. as well. You are right that whites are either forced to play FB or are labeled too small.Edited by: ToughJ.Riggins

Mr. Lambert,


I personally watched Earnhardt at the National Underclassmen Combine in Nashville, Tn. (4/5/09). This kid is absolutely amazing! Best high school athlete I've ever seen. (I was there to see my nephew). He ran a 4.35 40, 35" vertical & 28 reps X 185 lbs. His post interview w/ media said he had one of the top combine performances in the country. Believe me, this kid is for real and could play anywhere. I looked on Rivals for more info, but he's not listed as a prospect?

I watched Earnhardt at the PrepChamps Elite Combine at D1 Sports complex in Brentwood, TN. He was by far the best athlete there. Checkoutthese stats: http://blog.prepchamps.com/blog/nashville22809/


You can key in his name on Rivals.com and some stats are posted. No photo or any other info listed? He is 5'8" - 5'9" but looks like a beast! Kid is very strong, fast, quick and has great skills. White or black, I agree with ET, he can play wherever he wants.

 

[EveretT]

Hey Cook,


I just joined this site. Your listed as a Newbie also? Where you from in TN?


Word around Lebanon (close to Mt. Juliet) is taht Earnhardt is the best RB in TN. for sure. Made varsity as a freshman football & track. High school team is a little better than avarage. He's certainally not getting the national attention he deserves. Again, I've not seen anyone that fast and strong in H.S. At the NUC combine, the entire camp stopped to watch him run his second 40. Had probably 8-9 coaches timing him.

 

[MikeCook]

Brentwood area, Ravenwood H.S. ties.


Murphyfair.com has Earnhardt listed as a "TopProspect" in Tennessee. Rivals does list some of the most impressive stats I've read for any propspect. No stars, no photo, no video's, etc...?

 

[EveretT]

Don't know about the stars, photo, etc.either. Very impressive stats however!

 

[MikeCook]

Is there anyone else that has any info? Thanks

 

[ToughJ.Riggins]

Welcome to Castefootball guys! Thanks for all this info on Earnhardt. I just saw his Youtube video and he looks like a legit FBS talent, but being a little on the smaller side and white he has quite an uphill battle to get an FBS offer (even Tony Dungy and Tom Lemming have admitted as such, that whites have to do more to earn the same respect at tailback).

After all, Danny Woodhead is one of the most talented RBs period, who has played football in the last decade and he had to go the small school route. I hope you guys stick around to give us info on any of these underdog white skill players in Tennessee, this is my favorite forum on the site.

 

[EveretT]

Thanks Mr. Riggins for finding and posting on Earnhardt. Lebanon and Mt. Julietare in the same football region. I'll definitely be watching him next season. Additionally, I'm a Vol fan. Maybe Kiffin will look at him. Would love to see this kid in Orange.

Here ya go gentlemen. I sent an e-mail to National Underclassman, re: Brady Earnhardt and received this prompt reply.

Michael,
Thanks for the positive feedback. Brady still has his senior season to really expand on his recruiting opportunities. He just ran a 10.5 100 meters in his
latest track meet. We actually had two watches on him as he ran his 40 yard dash. He is a very explosive athlete and displayed great character and was
encouraging to other athletes throughout the day.

Thanks Everet for posting it for me. I can get back on the site now.

No problem. Good stuff.

Brady Earnhardt is at Army now, with the Black Knights being the only Div. 1 team giving Brady a scholarship.

A 5-8.5 guy that has 4.35 speed and a 35 in. vertical could be a good scatback at a big college, were he black of course.

 

[dwid]

at 5'7 165 pounds (I can't confirm his real height, anywhere from 5'6 to 5'8) Ole Miss didn't think Dexter McCluster was too small and he was timed at 4.5 out of high school. Sucks that Army was the only D1 team willing to give Brady a scholarship. 165 is a big dropoff from 185 and McCluster didn't have a problem succeeding on the D1 level. D1 teams will use any excuse not to recruit a White athlete at a skill position.Edited by: dwid
