Jimmy Chitwood
Hall of Famer
i know i've listed him in my receivers threads for a while now, but after his big performance in Air Force's bowl game, i thought it was time to make a thread for him.
Jonathan Warzeka can fly, so perhaps it's fitting that he's an Air Force Falcon. somehow, though, i doubt that former AFA head coach Fischer DeBerry was talking about players who look like Warzeka when he said "We need to sign more affletes."
more "strangely," i wonder how a guy with 10.68 speed in the 100 meters ended up at a service academy? of course,he's just another examplethat proves even if a White kid dominates at a SPARQ Nike combine it doesn't matter ... because he's White. and that means he's not a "real" athlete.
Warzeka dominated in high school as an all-purpose threat, and things are looking bright for his collegiate future as an all-purpose back, as well.
in Air Force's bowl game blowout victory over Houston, Warzeka had 6 carries for 35 yards, 3 catches for 45 yards, and 5 kickoff returns for 175 yards ... including a 100-yarder for a touchdown, Air Force's first kick return for a touchdown since 1985.
for the year, Warzeka had 48 carries for an average of 5.6 yards-per, was second on the team with 18 catches (13.7 per), threw a touchdown pass, and averaged 27.9 yards on 12 kickoff returns. in his limited touches, he accounted for 5 touchdowns.
he's a big-play guy with a big upside. he's one to keep our eye on.
