I don’t think so either but based on the film, I THOUGHT I had seen a big fast physical kid that needed refinement but I didn’t see soft.

I didn’t know about the mentality thing but I was familiar with Stranahan’s schedule. It’s not the strongest. With about 3 legit opponents. His entire film was him being a superior athlete. I’m fine with that though. They are here for at least 3 years. That’s enough time for him to become the star that we believe he is.

He loves Miami...has this whole process. I don't see him doing anything else but enjoying the process and committing when he's done playing around with the process

I forget the kids name but hes the wr on same team as Young I believe. That kid is another kid that I wouldn't be mad at if he got offered. Kids tape looks great.

WTF can Donk Duggans say to him?

“We ain’t got no offense, we ain’t got no QB, all our WR’s suck & you ain’t gon get drafted, so come to FSU & waste a year so you go in the portal after witnessing this dumpster fire up close & personal..”

“Oh and our Head coach is getting fired this year too, so I’m probably not even gonna be here..”

“Coach Haggins’ll be here though, so that’s good..”

"We have TWO wide receiver coaches"?

The real question is: When Memphis Mike gets canned, does FSU give Haggins the interim sombrero or Randy Shannon? My vote is for Shannon. He'd be the first person to ever be head coach at UM, FSU and UF.

Wait until the Gaytors hire Leonard Hamilton.
 
One trick pony. The young man clearly need to work on adding more routes to his game. The physical talent is there to be developed. How’s his mental fortitude. I think that’s the question.

WR was like the number 1 priority for FSU in the 2022 class.

Dugans missed on literally every single target. Went 0’for.

He’s not a good recruiter.

He missed a bunch no lies detected, but try recruiting a WR to FSU right now and see what you can sell him on 😂

Development? NIL? QB who slings the rock? Winning?

**** that’s gotta be hard lmao

they had to go in the portal.

im actually shocked a wr from oregon transferred in there because he wasnt getting touches in oregons offense...not sure what type of touches he is going to get in Mike Paul Walls offense, and they also got like a 6'7 wr from Arizona State...guess they went to west coast kids who likely didnt watch ANY fsu games.

I’m glad he went there. He can keep complaining about Mario’s offense when we light them up and he’s not doing anything about it.

Didn’t the oregon WR say he wanted revenge against Mario and Bmac(while he was here all 2 weeks) because he felt he was done wrong lol

I keep seeing people say this and his film looks like he's going at a different speed than everyone, but are there any testing numbers on him? does he compete in track?
 
Randy Moss was a go route specialist. Yeah you have to look at other traits but you also have to look at physical tools. I will take Hykeem over Innis. Hykeem with the right coach i see being special. Also remember So Fl was gassed about Pope and would gladly take him over Devante Smith. We also had people talk up Yearby over Dalvin. We also had people saying James Cook was only ok. They said Anthony Swartz was just a fast track guy. Give me the guys with elite athletics. You cannot coach Hykeem height and speed combination. I have been wrong before and will be again, we can check back in 3 or 4 years about this one.

Honestly man
I don’t care about number
Unless they start timing players in pads
My eye test shows him running away from that south Florida speed
That’s good enough for me

Your examples aren’t on point. This is SFLA, the best comparison in recent years was Surtain and Campbell. Surtain had a lower ceiling and Campbell had an almost limitless ceiling and was gonna grow into it. In the end Surtain was elite every which way. No knock on Hykeem, we want him but Innis is special. The only people that said Yearby over Cook were Canes trying to rationalize. In terms of pope and Devontae, WTF are you talking about? How did anyone want Pope over Devontae when one was 17 and the other 18?

I think your examples are bad. However, one thing rang true and that is you take Williams. I think the board initially overrated him then after Macho’s comments, they started dogging him. The kid is still a top talent. You don’t have to choose between him and Innis. Just take both.
