Terrance McGee is rated prospect no.172 but there isn't anything on him cuz he's from a small school.


Sam Aiken on the other hand. ..

Analysis

Positives: Quick-twitch type with deceptive speed and good strength...Has a very good knowledge of the offensive game plan...Competitive enough to fight for extra yardage after the catch...Shows functional acceleration off the line...Runs crisp routes, coing in and out of his breaks sharply...Fluid in his stride...Does a nice job of tracking the ball in and makes proper body adjustments going for the pigskin in traffic...Has the natural hands needed to make all the catches...Strong runner who is very tough to bring down in isolated coverage...Makes a good effort as a blocker...Quick to spot when the quarterback is in trouble, coming back to make the underneath catch...Fearless over the middle, making the acrobatic catches seem routine...Maintains body control, balance and agility when knifing through traffic.
Negatives: Lack of sustained quickness results in him being taken down from behind too often...Does not explode coming out of his cuts, needing to gather before heading upfield...Can catch the ball away from his body, but tends to lose concentration with the defender in front of him...Appears sluggish on his initial burst and has to do a better job of using his hands to get a push off the defender to defeat the press.

Career Notes

Blossomed into one of UNC's most consistent threats as a junior...Has the ability to go across the middle, make the difficult catch and take a hit...He is also a dangerous deep threat who earned "Super Ram" status in the weight room and is a member of the strength and conditioning honor roll...Finished his career with 146 receptions for 2205 yards (15.1 avg) and 15 touchdowns...Only Leon Johnson (151, 1993-96), Corey Holliday (155, 1989-93) and Na Brown (165, 1995-98) caught more passes in Tar Heel history...His 2205 yards are topped only by Octavus Barnes (2398, 1994-97) and Holliday (2447) on the school's career-record list...His 15 scoring grabs rank behind Art Weiner (18, 1946-49) and Barnes (19) in school annals.

2002 Season
All-Atlantic Coast Conference second-team choice...Winner of the E. Carrington Smith Award (team MVP-offense) and Art Weiner Award (most outstanding receiver)...Set school season-records as he hauled in 68 passes for 990 yards (14.6 avg) and four touchdowns, topping the previous marks of 55 catches by Na Brown (in both 1997 and '98) and 970 yards by Octavus Barnes (1995)...Added 18 yards on a kickoff return and 5 yards on a pair of punt returns (2.5 avg)...Averaged 84.4 all-purpose yards per game.
