is a dynamic playmaker itching to make his debut under those Friday night lights in the fall. Without question, the name of the game with Cox is quickness and speed. A very agile kid, he’s the type of player you do whatever you can to create space for. Whether it be pre-snap motion, running “pick plays”, crossing routes, rolling the quarterback out, etc.–anything to give Cox just a crease. Before all else, he could make his biggest initial impact in the kick or punt return game. On the smaller/thinner side right now, but hopefully the Lexington Minutemen’s reigning Athlete of the Year will pack on some needed-muscle this off-season.
