WR Marquez North is "a whole different animal"

Posted Aug 18, 2012
Besides his rare strength and speed, North has large hands that seem built to catch footballs with ease. Recruiting analysts like what they see. “He’s the top receiver in the Southeast,” said Rivals.com recruiting expert Mike Farrell. “He’s very difficult to check and he’s very well thought of nationally. He’s expected to be a star at the next level and move onto the NFL with that kind of talent, to be honest.” (Charlotte Observer)
