Miami University?!?!?! Yeah not so much my friend!!! Don’t want

We’re taking two RB’s this class & the staff has to always do their due diligence.

This offer has no bearing on where they stand with Young, Fletcher or any other RB locally.

It’s simply crossing every t & dotting every i; you have to establish relationships early so that when Dec-Feb crootin’ season comes kids can’t say, “I haven’t heard from Miami in like 6 months”, always good to recruit every prospect on your board & let the chips fall where they may.

Plus, Miami is going to load up on RB’s for the future.

This is grown man planning of a real cfb program. Something the last staffs lacked......being left hanging on nsd no more.

Completely agree @Dwinstitles. We’re out big boy hunting these days. Gone are the Plan C/D kids we had to jump on when we whiffed on higher talent. Reallly liked this young man’s HUDL highlights, it’s nice to see us cast a wide net for talent across the country.

Love this kids cutting. Definitely deserving of a fourth star

 

[westcoastcanes]

You forgot to add to your breakdown pants above the knees. Now if we could get him wearing black socks, I think we would all be a little more on board.

 

[JHallCanes]

3 stars from Denton are like 5 stars in the rest of the country

 

[Dan E. Dangerously]

Pretty decent stiff-arm on display in some of those runs.

He’ll definitely get bumped up to a 4-star once the camp circuit heats up over the summer.

And 247 does the updated evals.

If this increases our chance of getting Anthony Hill on a couple visits, I’m all for it.

I don’t know why that 11.6 is in that description. That’s slow Af lol

Miami University!!!!!????? Jesus Christ

 

[TexasCane90]

Great film at a powerhouse school…. This is the plan C kid you keep

Love us recruiting Texas kids

 

[amanan28]

Love his film, this is a good offer.

 

[supacane]

Oh he friends with Anthony Hill, ok lets offer him. Maybe they saw him while watching film on Hill. He doesn't have elite speed but he has good vision, cutting ability and ability to break tackles. If he was faster he would be a 5 star probably. He has all the attributes to be not only a good college RB but maybe a solid pro career.

I think Hicks and the NC back Smothers are both crazy underrated

I wasn't quite as impressed with the back from the NW they "offered"...Linmar I think is his name.

Hicks has basically everything you want except top end speed...It's not terrible, but it just doesn't look there... But he will carry 210 with excellent vision and cutting ability.
