As a bonus, thanks to Kevin for this link to a GREAT article on Calvin Johnson.
Sitting in a room full of the best players in the ACC, Johnson still stuck out. Boston College safety Ryan Glasper had watched Johnson play several times, but never met him up close.
"When I saw him in person -- oh, my God," Glasper said. "That's a specimen."
Said Boston College Coach Tom O'Brien: "He's a giant. Thank God we don't have to play him."
