There are times when you watch a smaller-school player’s tape, and you immediately wonder, “How in hell did the bigger programs miss this guy?” For me, that was the case when I got into Troy running back Kimani Vidal as the NFL season ended. In Vidal’s case, he did get offers from LSU and South Carolina out of Marietta High School in Marietta, Georgia (one of his teammates was Cardinals edge-rusher BJ Ojulari), but he felt more of a connection with Troy’s coaching staff, so that’s where he went.
