FSU football: Impact of Corey Wren commitment to Noles
By Kelvin Hunt
Versatility
Corey Wren is the true definition of the term athlete or recruit without a set position. He seems like he might be too slight of build to be a every down running back at 5’9″ 170 pounds.
However, he’s one of the fastest players in the entire 2020 recruiting class and someone Mike Norvell would label a playmaker.
Wren could be a player Norvell can line up in the backfield as a running back. He could put him in space against linebackers which would be a mismatch.
Wren could be used on jet sweeps or simply line him up in the slot as a traditional wide receiver. Either way, he’s a player that should receive multiple opportunities to stress the defense with his elite speed.
Wren has legit track speed with a 10.41 100 meter personal best as a high school junior. He can be a factor on special teams on kickoff/punt return and would likely be the fastest player since Kermit Whitfield in that role.
