No disrespect to Malcolm, but he's basically Malcolm squared. At the same point in their development, Snelson is stronger, faster, and more explosive than Malc.

Kinda reminds me of a smaller Dez Bryant.

Looks like he's going to be hard as **** to bring down in the open field.

That's the first I heard of Dez Bryant comparison. And you know what? I like it. Dez was about 6'1" coming out of high school 6'2" now and went through college and nfl weight programs. Snelson is 6'0" now and only a junior, could grow an inch or two by college. And already 195.

Malcolm a stud himself but Snelson more advanced at the same stages of their career when both were juniors in high school. Snelson is elite.

And you sure as **** know that 5 star is coming for Snelson.

Bruce and Snelson could both possibly end up 5 stars according to their rankings on sites and possibility of moving up more.

I view Mullins, Pinder and Ahmmon to be high 4 stars.

Newbold I see end up being a high 4 as well, probably won't reach a 5 cause he still under the radar for the moment and he will get his huge bump after the season.

But that 2016 WR group is going to be insane.

Weird that a cane legacy like Brandon Johnson from AH might get left behind too.

Don't see Salomon or Craig coming here.

Victor I have big doubts on him for now on how serious he would be of becoming a Cane for now, seems to like Bama and Clemson as well as the Canes.

Cavin Ridley is more of a RB than WR right now, we'll see after the season.

And **** makes you wonder, will staff pass on Dymond Lee, Kaayas target from high school in 2016?

That's how deep 2016 is. Some peeps gonna get their feelings hurt.

Jerzey spot on with that Dez Bryant comparison for Snelson. Great speed, physical, great hands.

Heard Snelson draw Reggie Wayne comparisons before but I see more Dez than anything. Snelson in the Dez mold.

Reggie is a chain mover, red zone threat, with great hands and good speed and great ability to adjust to the ball.

Dez, more of the big play with great hands and great speed and very physical.

No knock on Reggie at all. Both Reggie and Dez all pro receivers. Just different styles and Snelson game looks more like Dez.

For 2015. Man just get Peete and Callaway on board and just a find a way to get Calvin Ridley on board. And figure out which one or two you keep out of Gossier, Spence and Chatman.

I must admit i was kinda trapped in my thoughts on what happens with that last wide receiver spot for personal reason, because i know pinder is a must then it comes down to cane legacy or lil steve, but its a good problem to have for the U.

Johnson's a good player obviously, but if it comes down to those two for one spot I'd take Newbold and wouldn't think twice.

Some may disagree since Johnson is a four-star recruit and a legacy, but his lack of speed is a major question mark, IMO. Those who have seen Newbold live have raved about his athleticism, speed, and big play ability.

We have a long ways to go to sort it out and it'll be very interesting to see how it unfolds.

Steve.

I'm telling you, we all know. Well at least me and the others who have seen him. Steve is a stud, some peeps maybe even a lot now, including Me, Pete and some others have him as #1 in our eyes for 2016.

No knock on Brandon Johnson, not same caliber recruit as the other 6(2 ATH's) I project for 2016, he's good, but not as good as my projected 6.

Irvin Jr a legacy as well, but it's been noted that he's being looked at as a tight end. And I like Irvin better as a prospect than Johnson, Irvin dominates and is physical.

Irvin gets the legacy take way before Johnson. It's a different case how both of their legacies are.

Will get interesting with Dymond Lee though, we'll see.

I'll still stand my ground. Expecting Newbold and Pinder to be the final 2 added.

Don't take this wrong way either, after what Snelson did yesterday. I put him up there almost to how much I like Newbold as my favorite and that's a big deal.

Either way. Bruce, Mullins, Newbold, Pinder, Richards and Snelson are all studs, those guys are gonna be Allison's weapons.

i've uploaded Snelson's plays to Youtube for those interested

So why don't people think Gibson can play QB again? Because they thought he was going to OSU?

I don't know. He looks like he can play QB to me.

He mostly throws bubble screens and deep balls. Terrible feet and mechanics. One read guy. Bad accuracy issues, even in shorts. Long wind up and release point is low. People drool because 1. he has a cannon and 2. he's really really athletic. He's flashy. But the guy will have trouble at the next level unless he throws bubble screens and deep balls. He doesn't project well. Terrific athlete though. Would love him at WR. That's what I see on tape, including the one you just posted. I watched the whole game and that's pretty much what he is.

After the first clip I was hoping he wasn't just running verticals and out running dudes.. the next two clips shut me up!

Finally some creativity, this is what I meant when I always posted about the staff needing to be more creative. Now I hope the creativity translates on the official visits.
