"He's an explosive player. He's fast, but he's also explosive."
"Antonio has run a 10.2 100 meters and he won the state in the 100 and 200."
"Wisconsin offered and Nebraska, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, and Michigan were some of the other ones who were showing interest."
"And Tennessee, Texas A&M, and Florida for track. But he wanted to stay home."
