2018 WR Austin forming relationship with Dugans

View as article
This is the kind of athlete I'd take a flyer on as a project. If we are able to land Xavier, pope, Wiggins and one other baller in the Hightower/Thompson/Copeland mold, you can afford to take a chance on this kid as long as he impresses at the camps and turns in a 10.7ish time. If he's still at the 11s mark and has meh camps, then pass.

Man, a lot of punches being thrown in this thread. I need to check back on this one more often.

We should absolutely be signing 4 WR's at the minimum and a 5th if someone else wants in. This group is too good. If we have room to sign another 25 or so class there is enough room.

Omg this kid has some great film. He's 6'3 and runs effortlessly.

Definite take imo

Changes direction so fluidly too. Stud. Plus, he goes up and snatches the ball away from everyone. I don´t remember a WR class that was even close to this one.

All this talk about his level of competition is mute. Just stop it. Only you's guys care about that ****. College coaches could give 2 fvcks and they get paid a lot more than we do to make these decisions. I'd say the coaches at Ohio State, Michigan State, Florida, Miami, Michigan, etc...know a thing or two about what legit college football players look like. They definitely know more than the people on this message board. I've seen plenty of strike-outs on here.

I totally agree Macho! Some of these guys look at at 2 min clip and conjure up all these opinions about kids the staff is obviously interested in. They have no respect for the fact that the staff members are more knowledgeable and interactive with the recruiting process than any of us posters will ever be. Plus they don't know where a kids falls on the teams board for his position. In all honesty we are touting and should our 2016 WR class, but the reality is those were not the primary WR prospects the staff targeted.
 
These coaches are NOT freshmen in the game. They know how to evaluate a prospect. this kid isn't a NLOI Day, Al Folden reach. This is a kid they targeted early in the process. Will he be a star? I don't know, but I know that this isn't CMR's first rodeo.

If he's announcing soon sounds like it won't be us. I really like this kid. He proved he isn't a scam by coming to the camps and showing he can dominate against big time comp. Shame we didn't have room for him.
