South Carolina WR/KR Deebo Samuel is fast.
The sophomore proved that on Saturday with an incredible 100-yard kickoff return touchdown against Western Carolina in Columbia.
The sophomore quickly gets to full speed and doesn’t slow down, racing through would-be tacklers and blowing by other defenders on his long sprint to the end zone:
