3-Star Edge Rusher Cole McConathy Commits to Miami

[BeastMode]

It depends on what his role is going to be.

If he's setting the edge, diagnosing plays, using his hands to create havoc... He'll be great here.

If he's being asked to rush the passer, disrupt with quickness... He will struggle here.

He does a good job of diagnosing plays and actually changes direction better than expected. His height and weight are solid for a kid coming in. If he's allowed to grow into the position of a SDE, then this is a very good pickup. He plays with effort and intensity, he's ok coming off the ball, but the overall burst is missing.

He is a SDE all the way in my opinion. With a RS year and the weight room he could be 260lbs I would think.

Nice recruiting job flipping him from a Top 10 team just before we play them

I told my wife we flipped a bad dude the very week we play Louisville, and she was like, holy smokes!!? But seeing as how he is now a Cane, he'll be a one star in 2 weeks.

does this mean no way armondo coming?

I actually like the kid compared to all the other 3 stars we currently have. Good frame with great production. Not sure on competition. Has to get a boost in rankings at some point.

Not sure what you’re looking at, but he’s got an explosive first step and some lateral agility for someone that big.

He does need to learn some pass rush moves, but that’s what Taylor is here for.

Also glad someone is doing their job in recruiting unlike some other coaches

Phillip Rivers?

Phillip Rivers coached against him this year. After the game Rivers called Todd Stroud who he knew from NC State days. Miami evaluated him and offered.

But Trumpys question about being one of his 20 kids is also a possibility.

Value production over projection.

Bain - massive production equals instant impact

Colin McConathy - highest sack total in Alabama = I love where it's going

Hold on here…

Bain is an incredible athlete.

This guy appears to be a good athlete as well.

One thing I don’t want people to think is that these are some Glenn Cook type players.
