JUCO WR Shemar Kirk commits to Miami

[Home Slice]

Excited about this guy. Not Devin Hester, but he could be a game changer returning the football. Go Canes !!!!!!

To be fair Beard eclipsed Gattis the second he took his first dump in the coaches offices

You mean when he took his first Gattis.

40 time?

40 time?

I haven’t seen one but I’d guess 4.5‘s, maybe high 4.4’s. He doesn‘t look like he’s had much coaching with his strides , he’s kinda all over the place yet leaving dudes.

So many underthrown balls on deep routes and balls behind him on intermediate routes, yet he frequently made the adjustment to catch the ball and still get serious YAC. Seems like a smart route runner, too, attacking soft spots in zone and being aggressive to create conflict between the CB and S. Seems like a very QB-friendly WR. Excited to have him.

He gets after those contested balls with great timing and hands. Seems like a very aggressive receiver who's gonna come in with something to prove. Like him!

I mean it’s so many statements in that post that needs to be paused that I don’t even know where to begin! BIG BIG BIG BIG BIG PAUSE

Stated by folks in varying ways, but biggest take from off-season roster acquisitions is size & speed. Good stuff. Even more telling is the heightened competition at multiple positions. Competition is what it’s about.

I tell young people all the time “ hard work and making good decisions can take you a very long way”. Don’t settle for ****. Just look at this cat , who saw this coming when he was a Sophomore in HS? He worked his *** off for what he wanted and now look at him.

He’s got a cool story. I really wanted to land him for his work ethic also. I think that room needs another X grinding and pushing the group. On top of that he has real skills.

Seems like this cat could be a YAC monster

Yeah, but I knew he was the best **** football player in the Nissan intramural league...

But that's because Gattis smeared most of his on the walls...

I heard from my sources that it was Gattis shaped.

This pretty much seals the deal - will have some transfers out at WR. Redding and/or Ladson. Hopefully not one of the young guys. Improving the roster regardless.

I’ve rewatched this film a few times and each time I’m more shocked at how good his route running is for his lack of playing. He’s not an Elite technician but he’s **** good as most aspects of the position. Sales routes well , stems and stacks routes and catches everything with his hands. He’s good in the short , intermediate , deep and run after catch. You can use him outside and in the slot. The sneaky aspect of his game is in the return game. Good pickup.

KB gonna coach this kid into a stud I have no doubts. And the fact he was a security guard working and playing football he should be a great worker bc he gets it unlike some freshmen coming. He’s got limited time. Let’s go Kirk

All I ask of Kirk and Harrell are that they practice and play hard, stay healthy and don't have drops. Their athleticism is more than good enough that they'll shine in Dawson's offense if they do those three things. That should also elevate the rest of the room.

Generally agree, and I don't think you mean it this way, but health is outside any player's control. But I hear you... I also hope they stay healthy and produce to their full potential.

Beard has already eclipsed Gattis.
