look all I care about is getting Tyson Campbell. If we don't get him then I think getting Bethel would be okay. But If we get Campbell, I don't give a **** what happens with Bethel.
 
What were this dynamic WR’s numbers at WR? He wasn’t as good as Northwestern’s CBs, but was allegedly a top WR. What did he actually produce at that position?

I’m all for great QBs and great WRs transitioning to CB, but don’t give me some dude who couldn’t do anything at WR and couldn’t play CB. At some point, football becomes a game of making football plays and not just a game of good 100m track times.

Definitely plays on his film as a WR...And the occasional play at CB including a pick.

Highlight clips tend to always contain a few highlight plays. What were his numbers over the course of the season?

Good luck finding accurate high school stats for him, but in the three Northwestern games I saw (Central and Carol City X2) he was making plays. You didn't have to look to find him.

Too many pelvic height holes in the walls of that “office” of his.

Would love to know his actual production. It’s odd how much actual stats have gone out the window in this day of camps and non-football evaluations. Stats aren’t everything by any means, but I always like to see if a football player has made plays or just looks the part.
 
I look at Bethel as a high school Jhavonte Dean. Near identical profile to Dean coming out of South Dade.

Dean was a JUCO four-star who blew our coaches away early in camp but didn’t get over the hump mentally. Is he just one of those guys? Will he blossom into a draftable corner as a senior? Would he have been further along if he went straight to Miami instead of JUCO?

I like how we’re playing it. Stay in contact, get him on campus late and make a decision then.
 
It all comes down to Campbell, anyway. If he comes, everyone will be beyond thrilled regardless of whether Bethel is allowed to commit. If he doesn't and Bethel's the only DB we add between now and NSD, that's an entirely different story.

Yeah, we need Campbell. Although I wrote Campbell up as a corner, people keep telling me to watch him as a potential safety.

Here are Bethel's senior highlights. Atwell cost him a few long touchdowns on overthrows.

Curious to see what he runs in track this year. He still has a PR of 10.78 from his sophomore year. If he improves as a senior, he'll probably surpass Jhavonte Dean (10.73) and be the fastest corner on our team Day 1.

He had 4rec 61yds vs CC back in October
1rec 52yds & 1TD vs Central
3rec 90yds vs Norland
4rec 72yds vs CC in the playoffs

He was used primarily as a Deep ball WR to stretch the field & take the top off the Defense in a QB run first offense with Tutu.

He's a versatile athlete with good speed, good feet & hips, he's not just some bum that's a 25th hour add. He's a take imo.

For a comparison I would say he's a taller Kayvon Webster with similar speed.

Bethel is nothing special and isn’t anything that doesn’t come through South Florida EVERY year . Pass

Those the gamed I watched and he did his thing. He really stuck out. Don't consider this a golden special seeing as they offered him a while ago.
 
Really can’t say about Bethel.

But I’m passing on the scouting acumen of a skinny-jean-wearing ambiguously metrosexual fruitpop in suburban Atlanta.

But that’s just me.

Have another Cosmo, Broke. The night is young.
