Great update thanks...

A couple things caught my attention.

- I agree on Riley over Gibson. Like em both, edge Riley.

- TK Cunningham…Interesting he's not a take just yet. I think he will be. I just figured UM had something to do with the transfer to Central? How'd he end up there if we aren't taking him? Family?

- The Russell 6'3 stuff is interesting…Some are saying that just isn't true?

- I like Nesta…But I think him over Flowers is a mistake. I also worry about the P5 pitcher/LB combination…May run into some trouble there, jmo.

- Barney….I would have taken yesterday. I don't understand the whole "late bloomer" thing. Tape looks pretty good and the track times have been there?

- Glad to hear on Brandon Baker…Would be huge get.
