UCLA Times: Receiver Taylor Embree shows quick hands

Wide receiver Taylor Embree remembers the tennis balls coming at him and that split second it took to identify the small colored dots on them.

That is how he and his father, Kansas City Chiefs assistant Jon Embree, would play catch.

It explains a lot.

"He catches everything," said Bruin quarterback Kevin Craft.

Taylor Embree, a freshman, acquired that skill through "catch" sessions with his father, a former UCLA assistant.

"He'd throw the ball and I'd have to say the color, like 'black' or 'red' before you caught it," Taylor Embree said. "And he'd throw pretty hard too. You'd have to look at them and catch one-handed."
