“His footwork is like Chicka Ferguson,”
Ellery Hanley
“You need really quick footwork, really precise turns to get the job done and be fast. So it really kind of plays into my strengths.”
Seth Wescott
“Just little things like footwork, just keeping my feet moving. I have a tendency of being flat-footed when I catch the ball. Keeping my feet moving. And that's what I've been working on.”
B.J. Upton
“It's all starts with footwork. Both backs taking angles, the linemen taking angles and getting defensive linemen and linebackers to flow. Even we don't know where the ball may end up at. It may go front side, it may come all the way back.”
Justin Griffith
“It's completely different [than shortstop]. Your back is to the runner, and the footwork is almost the exact opposite.”
Brian Butterfield
“He's the real thing. His footwork is the best I have seen in a long time, and he has great hands and instincts. Every team needs somebody [good] to play shortstop and he's the guy here. The way he played for us last year was outstanding.”
Carlos Garcia
“His offensive footwork in the post has gotten so much better. He's quicker and he's understanding how to move, reverse pivots, drop steps, Tim Duncan-like stuff. The thing he's doing best is pick and pop, where he sets a screen, gets the ball back and hits a 15-17 foot jumper.”
