I saw a few mentions in the depth chart thread, but not sure how much he's been discussed on the board.

I watched his Hudl film last night and must say I'm impressed. College and Magnolia has a great article on him, including the Hudl film.

Also saw on Twitter someone asked the owner and publisher of Arkansas Varsity and Red Wolf Report (part of the Rivals network) about Hastings and this is his response:

@LukeMatheson wanted to get your thoughts on former Pulaski Acd. WR Will Hastings showing up as a #2 WR on Auburn's depth chart.

Does that mean Hastings has bumped Ricardo from the All Time Leader spot in the 10 yard?

It looks like he bumped 3 people off the all time list.

Just read over at AUFamily that a supposed "insider" says giving Hadtings reps will be a waste.

And if he knows how to run a damn route or doesn't just jog when the ball is not coming his way

No clue. To me, Hastings seems like a safety valve. He is reported to have super glue hands and extends the ball for yardage. If he can catch the ball, then he should play.

also just realized from his twitter that he was the one who actually kicked the ball in the Daniel Carlson kicking at the lake house video. Carlson caught the ball. Hastings is a great kid and I hope he blows up this year.

Truth, he really is a baller. I was a bit worried yesterday but after watching his HUDL film, I'm not worried in the least.

Obviously the numbers are inflated and not as good as clocked, but he's still an awesome athlete and he's putting up numbers compared to some of Auburn's best players from recent memory.

Yeah. they're bullsheet. I don't know how AU is timing these things, but I don't like it. I doubt there is a single guy running a legit 4.2x on the team. Probably a 4.3 guy or two, and several 4.4's.
