Jarrod James uses passion play
Posted Jul 18, 2010
You probably can bench press more weight than UNC recruit Jarrod James, a 6-foot-4, 287-pound offensive lineman at Pikeville Aycock who is ranked by rivals.com among the top three guard prospects in the country. Many high school linemen can lie on their backs and push up 300 pounds or more during a bench press, but James can't lift the bar off the rack. In fact, he can't raise his right hand higher than his ear. James might not be able to bench press 300 pounds, but he can push around 300-pound defensive linemen.
