First UM 2025 offer goes to ATH DJ Pickett

[TheMatador]

From Zephyrhills. His dad is a Canes fans. believe Ryan Pickett is his uncle.

Wait, wasn't Ryan the DL at FSU; his brother Booker was a LB for us in the early '90's.

I don't remember how hard we recruited Ryan, if I've got the name right, but the brothers split up between FSU and UM.

As I've been learning from reading the other threads, a lot of this is about relationships. So, get started early. Although bags, when they happen, trump all.

He had an older brother that played at Easter Michigan a few years ago (Jaylon Pickett). Kid comes from a good family dad is real cool and is a Canes fan. This is DJ's dream offer. Plays baseball as well. Will be a freshman at Carrollwood Day (UM has a 2022 commit in Brandon Cleveland as well) this year.

Your write.

 

[TheMatador]

It blows my mind that kids born in 2007 are getting college offers

Well, we say a lot of recruits are too young to remember our glory years....now some kids will be too young to remember our bad years.

It all evens out.

Look at this Ethiopian mf

Lanky af

He looks like he weighs 165

So others can be aware, when a kid comes in early what most s & c will do is have the kid shed the **** weight and build in the mold they'd like his body type at. Being as I saw him in person enough times I can say that seems to be what's going on here. Kid wasn't big by any means. But he wasn't lanky either. Maybe he grew some would be other possibility

Devonta Smith looked like that as well lmao

Lol devante didn't have to tackle anyone
