4-star TE Zipperer feeling like a priority to the Canes

View as article
If I were on another site, I'd feel like The U has just as good a shot as any other team. He was not dismissive and sounded positive.

Physically he is a stud, but I think Hodges film is much better than his. He is not nearly the level of the 2 guys we got this year!

Fair enough. At some point, though, we have to acknowledge the truth. It is different here. Unless we out of the blue have a massive bag game, we’re not going to start picking up 6-7 blue chips on signing day that other schools led for up until a week before. Building our classes really is all about relationships and we need guys to be on board and be vocal about it, or else it becomes clear that they want illegal incentives that we can’t provide. When you read comments like what Zip just said, and don’t understand that there is a very low chance he is coming here given what he is “looking for in a school”, you either understand it or you don’t. There is no emotion here, it just is what it is.

Exactly! Some of them don't read between the lines.

That's the other bit. I'm not so sure he's worth the trouble. If he's going to sign in December, or wanted to commit over the summer, ok, let's take him. But for a guy who insists he's not going to decide until signing day, I mean keep recruiting him, but let's find someone else for that spot if we can find someone who's as good or better and will commit before the season.

I don't think he's going to be a Cane either. Just 2 days ago, SB Nation quotes him saying Alabama and Oklahoma are the finalists with Florida lurking.

I think he sees the talent here and doesn't want to sit for 2 years. However, competition would make him a better player. Isn't that what Saban sells?

A quote from the article:

Zipperer doesn’t have a Top-5, but says that Alabama and Oklahoma will for sure be in it until the end for him.
“Those two schools, I know for sure they’re going to be hats on my table when I commit. I’m close with them.”
Zipperer says he already knows where he wants to go, but just isn’t saying it yet. Instead, he is “just making sure his gut is right” by taking more visits.

4-star tight end Keon Zipperer says Alabama, Oklahoma will be finalists

I'm as positive as anyone out there, but...

We already talked about this on here. Bud Elliot wrote that post. If your not familiar with his history with Miami do some research.

Funny...
I know his history with Miami, so, no need for research.
I was 100% positive he was ours in the spring.
Now I'm 50.83% positive.
You seem to have that (close to) 100% feel.
Nice.
I hope he's ours on "hats on my table" day.
 
Zipp looks like a beast to me. He had the top SPARQ at the Orlando combine, he's produced at Lakeland and he loves to block.

If we want to play more power, a versatile athlete like Zipp fits right in.

Link to the sparq results? He doesn't look very athletic on film. Lumbering and stiff.

Alabama just got a tight end commit (Jahleel Billingsley from Phillips in Chicago). They may try and go for two at that position but that could help Miami. Just wanted to throw that in there.

Saban getting everbody he wants this year, still ****ed about finishing 7th last year.

We have a 2 set TE offense. He has the talent to be 3rd in the rotation next year.

With an accurate QB, a two tight end set can cause defenses to have nighmares. What we show - we may not do. What we don't show - that's the backbreaker!

Just looking through their threads - looks like this kid was their guy. don't see anything about a 2nd TE. They also got one of their top target WR tonight too.
 
As long as they are getting kids that we arent going after and its helping us then I dont mind at all. Its nice that florida thought they had this guy also. Now when they come into our backyard with a helli and start stealing croots its a problem. Gonna need to drop a bag on an rpg to stop that bs
