| Biography: |
Outstanding speed player who puts great pressure on defenses with his ability to run. Could be one of the top players in the country as a senior.
Alexander played quarterback as a junior and finished the year with over 1000 yards rushing and 14 touchdowns. Passing, he had another 400 yards with four scores.
He benches 280 pounds, squats 410 and has a 42 inch vertical jump. Alexander also runs track (10.5-100m, 21.5-200m), but will only play football in college. "I don't even read the letters I get for track," he admitted.
Final senior (8-3) stats: 1,000+ yards rushing and 23 touchdowns; 400+ yards receiving with six more touchdowns; two kicks returns for scores; Alexander also threw for 100 yards and one touchdown.
Alexander reports a 3.2 core GPA and an 830 SAT.
Alexander: "I have great speed (claims a 4.3 forty). I'm fast and move well. Once I'm in the open field I'm gone. Also, I'm great one-on-one and can usually beat anyone. Everybody wants me for offense and a lot of schools are saying they'll use me like Reggie Bush. I've played running back most of my life and would like to play that in college.
"I still want to improve my route running and my hands catching the ball," Alexander said. "I need to get stronger."
He benches 280 pounds, squats 410 and has a 42 inch vertical jump. Alexander also runs track (10.5-100m, 21.5-200m), but will only play football in college. "I don't even read the letters I get for track," he admitted.
