On a June afternoon in 2014, University of Tennessee receivers coach Zach Azzanni put a group of high school players through drills at a Volunteers football camp. Like every college team, the Vols were evaluating which players should rise or fall on their recruiting board.
That was when Azzanni saw Jerry Jeudy run around for the first time.
Jeudy was 15 years old and entering his sophomore year in high school in south Florida and weighed maybe 150 pounds. Azzanni, though, didn’t care.
“Absolutely, I remember like it was yesterday,” he said.
