A late addition, who was only offered a few days ago. Nonetheless, he looks like a good one. A taller WR with speed and good hands. Lists his 40 time as 4.43. If that's true, he likely would be the fastest player on the team. May get a shot early returning kicks.
Congrats, Joey...you made a great choice.

Besides what FlyerIllini mentioned about Joey, I like his upright running where his balance is so good that a fingernail tackle doesn't trip him up; he needs to be really tackled.
With that height & speed I wonder two things: is he deeply involved in basketball now or was he trying for a bigger program and could not land what he wanted? Either of those could have caused Joey to chose UD late. We'll take him!
