Elite speed and ultimate athleticism is a rare combination

Brandon Logan is a three-star football prospect according to 247 sports. He had a terrific last year on this gridiron culminating in a state championship while contributing 95 tackles and 6 interceptions to the cause at the safety position.

Logan's speed is exceptional, often listed in the 4.4 range and he's a well-rounded enough athlete to garner scholarships in multiple D1 sports. This is most definitely a player the Notre Dame football staff can turn into a major asset.

Why am I so sure? Speed and athleticism cannot be taught. And Logan has both in spades.
