Lincoln Acree brings verified speed and all-purpose explosiveness to Southern Illinois
Acree enters Southern Illinois as a freshman wideout with real separator traits: he posted a 4.507 laser-timed 40 at a Rivals Atlanta combine, plus strong shuttle, three-cone, and broad-jump marks that point to quickness and burst, not just straight-line speed. In high school, he piled up 1,701 receiving yards and 23 touchdowns, while also adding punt and kick return scores, so he fits as a multi-phase playmaker who can create after the catch and help on special teams. His upside is tied to speed, versatility, and captain-level competitiveness.
