Need to jump all over this kid, as has been mentioned on this board before. I think he needs to be the first guy on the list for RB next year.

Wait Booger McFarlands son?

No.

 

[3FW]

Schedule was decent. Played 3 good Jersey schools. Need to beef up their in state schedule.

 

[SoFlaSmitty]

WTF.

They have 11 of the ESPN 300 for 2017. Eleven. At one school.

I know it's like a sports boarding school, but why do people schedule them? What kind of schedule do they play? And why aren't they #1 in the nation?


I'm baffled that anyone in Florida would allow this.


STA is bad enough, but at least it's under the charade of a private religious school (whatever).


If I'm a HS in Florida why would i possibly want to help this fake school by putting games on their schedule?




and most importantly....


do we have a shot at any of their kids in 2017?

Everything is going to change in Florida. The state voted and passed a bill allowing kids to attend any school of their choosing for any reason including sports. Soon high schools will be hiring recruiting coordinators.

I've seen that before for sure. That kind of connection just hasn't really meant anything in the past, the alumni coach/director. Wish it did, but there are much bigger factors at play.

Gotta have some benefit to it. Gotta squeeze that angle. Need more IMG guys.

I like that RB that they got for 2017

We are pretty good at RB for 17. Burns is a stud.

We need 2

Not Boogers kid. Yes, every school will want this kid.

 

[Al Foil]

Burns would have been the #1 overall RB in the country this year.

Elite franchise back.

i was reading that this is a Thomas brown guy when he was at Georgia and that they're tight in one of the articles that came out when they offered him

 

[90scane]

Can you expand on this wild praise for Burns? He seems like a nice RB prospect, but I'm not sure I see the elite can't miss RB that you and a couple others have described him as. I'll admit that I'm not that familiar with him. I've only seen some HUDL highlight and looked at his stats (6 ypc against Gulliver competition doesn't scream top RB in the nation, though).

I'm very open to learning more and being convinced. What's up?

It's very possible this bill ends up getting passed. But it hasn't even gone to a vote in either of the houses of the state congress. So, no bill has been passed. All that has happened is that a Senate education subcommittee has voted to recommend its approval.

no he ain't, in his own pic on 247 he's wearing an OSU hat

 

[Jcvaldez21]

They play a national schedule and try to schedule the big teams from accross the country. They can't complete for a FL state ****le. They will continue to get the top players from here on out. If anyone has any questions send me a message and I can discuss

you mean the 247 page? i don't think the kids choose that

 

[Canefam]

****ing shame if richt doesn't set up shop there and let's Harbaugh run it

The FL schools and the NCAA should put an end to this "recruiting" practice...

 

[CaneScott]

Schedule was decent. Played 3 good Jersey schools. Need to beef up their in state schedule.

Im surprised they didnt play CCC and Trinity Christian again this year. Those schools are both power houses of 3A football here.

they don't but when they go to the satellite camps where they take those pics are taken they're informed that the pic will go on the site, thus he chose to wear that during the pic, js
