2018 OT John Campbell (Commits!)

Advertisement
If this last class of OL tells us anything, Searels, Brown and Richt know how to evaluate OL. Plus, Scaife and Reed are pancaking 4/5-star DL at invitational camps. So if our coaches like J Campbell, he's the goods.

You can say what you want about one on ones with Campbell but he looked far more impressive this spring than top 100 guard prospect William Barnes by far.... watch how Barnes got whipped in the spring game and observers have said he didn't look good at spring practice either at apopka.

campbell will be a good get for Miami. He has a lot of tools just has to work towards being more consistent. In these highlights Barnes was getting whipped by an unranked dlineman from lingards school
Apopka High School - Trevor Gregory highlights - Hudl

Campbell looks like he's still 15 years old. Good sign for future growth. OL prospects are a freakin' crapshoot.
 
He looked ok at the Rivals 5 star challenge. Scaife looked more powerful playing tackle than JC did playing tackle. I would take the commit, but I think he is maybe 3 years away. Should see significant time by his RS SO year.

I agree with tis. He's a kid with potential, but not a game ready guy.
 
Most lineman aren't game ready. Only the elite can come in and play day one. Those aren't abundant. He still has his senior year plus a redshirt year before he would ever need to see the field at Miami. He would be a solid take.

I agree with this. Maybe 2 years away. But, the thing is he has the feet that can't be taught and clearly has the frame to add significant size and power without losing his athleticism. The result 2 years from now could be a very good starting LT

Just a quick tid bit of information I received from a friend. My friend's son will be a freshman at DP this year. The football team is working out in the mornings. I was told his son overheard Campbell talking about his recruitment and trip to Miami. He said Florida is leading right now. We will see what camp he goes to when July comes. Nick Smith from DP chose Florida last year and he is tight with Campbell so we will see if that has any affect.

Highly doubtful sir
 
Brad Cecil is not only good , he's MEAN./ Make no doubt he should be working at the I-Hop with all the pancakes he makes...After he cakes a player then he tops it of with every pound of his body...Just MEAN.. It's what's missing with our current O-linemen
