They’re still hunting at safety
Me neither . That makes no sense.Yeah nah, lol. I don’t believe that.
Are we seriously going the let’s not hurt the kids feelings route man
Didn't know that. That's interesting. Oh, it was an instant classic. Schmitt's. Just typing it literally makes me LOL.
I'm going through and watching the portal guys to write them up. His tv copy you can see isn't perfect by any means.
That said, CB is very much a tools position. Miami is lacking in players with tools in that room. You take every 6-3 fluid mover with speed and ball skills you can get.
If nothing else, you're getting a depth guy who can play specials and has outcomes possible that almost no one else in the room does.
He certainly isn't being penciled in as a starter already.

Music to my ears. Now playing Elton John someone save my life tonight!!!
Welcome to the U young fella. Lotta noise out there about you - prove it to be just, nothing but noise….as we’re all unquestionably rooting for you to represent your brand and this U the right way!!!
Sorry if you've already posted this elsewhere but what did u see on film that made him so bad? Bad coverage, bad tackling? Slow? Lots of penalties?
To me, this take all depends on who else we get.
Hes a freshman and young.
If we get O'Connor and Lucas, then Karnley is a great take as he'd be coming in as a depth and developmental player to replace our recruiting miscues.
If he comes in as a player we are depending on, dont like it.

Kinda my thinking too. Like are we hedging all our bets on this kid? No. Gotta flip the room. Not every CB room can be like the early 2000s here. Also have the spring portal coming too. My thinking is why not take 4-5 guys in the winter. See how spring practice goes and then reevaluate from there. Mario did the opposite last year and we see how it worked.
Oh I agree lol…let’s move arguable a top 5 outside corner in cfb to nickel. I don’t see it either
Do you like Brantley? Yes. If healthy, this guy is easily our top corner (and a top DB in all CFB) based upon production and can do multiple things if asked.
Poyser? Yes. Was big part of defense’s success.
Do you like O'Conner? Yes. Young but had some excellent moments for Wassau
Do you like Xavier Lucas? Yes. Young but played key role for UW defense
Again, every DB gets beat but the key is battling and being in the right spot more often than not to make a play. The potential with these guys can actually be seen on tape. I don’t believe Cuse walks up and down the field on us with these guys playing in our secondary, scheme notwithstanding.

It kinda does. He has the skill set for it. And they are still going after cbs. It probably all depends on who they land

So is this the time we all bash our commits no matter what and the crew of wanna be talent scouts, street agents and high school coaches show up and criticize the kid? Just checking! He sucks!
I wouldn't go quite that far.
I respect @JayCane20 because he watches film and gives his honest assessment. I can agree with him on "hip stiffness", that could be an issue. I can disagree with him (a bit) on foot speed, because I've seen guys in their first year of position-change "think too much" and "play too slow" compared to later years. I cited Sam Shields because he got better each year he played CB. Now, if Karnley is still slow with his feet a year from now, then let's cut bait and move on.
We also have a lot of posters who just chime-in to whatever their favorite poster says, though they have not watched film.
I tend to look at the big picture. You have a tall, rangy kid with speed who is switching from WR to CB. Pressure bursts pipes, so if he improves in the next year, great, and if he doesn't improve in the next year, recruit over him.
No IC rules any longer. 105 total scholarships. Throw numbers at the problem and see who sticks. It's not like we are passing over a bunch of guys who want to be Hurricanes.
Top 5 is a big reach. Brantley is a good cb but he ain’t elite. If they get O’Connor who is a outside guy then somebody has to play nickel with oj already outside at 1 spot
First time he gets smoked..."it was the fans doubtin me"

6'3" corner plays at every level.
Most 6'3" corners get toasted more than you like...but that comes with the package.

... I'm just seeing if Karnley being DB # 4 or 5 would be good enough for CIS to stop with the "staff has learned nothing" rhetoric you finished your post with...
If this kid playing Nickel is French for "we're moving Damari to safety"......then I'm good with this signing.
I’m shocked you know that song. You’ve got Lil Uzi Vert written all over you.
