Good article about Kevin Norwood

Norwood did what he's done almost his entire career at Alabama: he made the catch that needed to be made in the exact moment it needed to happen. Down two touchdowns and on the ropes against Texas A&M, Norwood skied over the defensive back, caught the ball at its highest point and twisted around to get his feet just inside the pylon for a 22-yard touchdown. The moment will be forever memorialized in photos and painting as the point Alabama turned the corner and put itself in position to win an instant classic against the Aggies.

For Norwood, it was just another game. He's not the tallest, the fastest or the most athletic receiver on Alabama's roster. He's battled a number of injuries in recent years that have kept him from piling up the kind of statistics that would get him noticed nationally. But he's always found a way to be there on the biggest stage and in the biggest moments when his team has needed him. It wasn't just Kentucky or Texas A&M. You'll do well to remember Alabama's trip to LSU last year when quarterback AJ McCarron, down three points with a championship berth on the line, found Norwood on three consecutive passes. All three went for first downs, the final reception setting up a screen pass to T.J. Yeldon for the come-from-behind win.

Mr. Clutch, indeed!

I was told by an ex-coach of his after his freshman year that he had the best hands of all the receivers, that coach sure knew what he was talking about. I'm thinking he will get a chance at the next level and he'll be a steal for some team because he probably won't go very high in the draft.

I would also like to agree and add that Praise God he has not had any issues that I know of, other than CNS may have gotten upset with him. This sounds like a character of a good man. RTR!

I'm sure some pro scout has noticed him at workouts if not game film. He ends up as a 5th round or later pick in my opinion and will be a steal. He has the hands and moxie to be that 3rd down receiver teams are looking for.
