Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Kendrick Van Ackeren

[HWNBRN]

this kid looks like a baller... i like it.

[homes808]

He will be a huge playmaker for us. To me he will pan out to be a better Aaron Brown.

[Flyin_Hayn]

Hmm he's listed as a linebacker & weighs about 200 pounds?? He's gonna need to hit the weights & pack about 20-30 pounds more. But could end up being a beast for us in the near future

[H20]

Well there's no way he stays 200 lbs., he JUST graduated HS a couple months ago. He and the trainers have over a year to get him to where he needs to be, and even then he'll still be a RSf and has plenty of time.
