I actually like this kid and think, with his size and speed, he has POTENTIAL to develop into a good player.
But there's no reason to take his commitment right now. None. There's a reason he has very few offers, and that reason is he projects as a defensive player at the next level, but has no defensive body of work. Playing DB is very instinctual. Does the kid have a single instinct? Can he actually play DB? Nobody knows, but IMO it's perfectly fine to offer, bring to camps, bring to Paradise, and see how he does this fall (he said he's going to be playing more defense) before you accept his commitment. This is not a make or break type kid, and even if you do wait and he winds up going elsewhere down the road, it's not the end of the world.
This just screams to me that, as usual, the staff is not very confident on much of the higher ranked DBs. If you think you have a shred of flipping Dent, getting Steele, Elam, Stevenson (although they may view him as a Safety), Davis, Porter, Dixon, etc. etc., you don't take a kid purely on potential at this point.
Again, I think the kid clearly has the athleticism to play at this level, I just would like to see a prospect at least demonstrate a tiny bit of production at his position before you take him in May. Nobody else on Miami's level is clamoring for a commitment from this kid right now. To me, this speaks volumes to how poorly the DB recruiting is going. If you think you've got a big hook set into even a few of the kids I mentioned above, this kid doesn't get taken right now. JMO.
They’re only taking 1-2 kids at cb. Relax.
