Khalil Mack high school ranking

[Canesfan1899]

ray lewis had one offer. it happens but its not the norm

Especially now with the internet and the camp circuit. Not nearly as many hidden south Florida gems.

Some guys are just late boomers and make a huge jump after they turn 19 or 20. Just the way it goes.

 

[JHallCanes]

Whatever you guys do, don't be a dumbass like me and look at the 2009 recruiting class, specifically the 2009 LB class.

I don’t think you’ll ever see a class as roster-emasculating as that one

 

[Arehel]

This guy uses Khalil Mack and tries to say that's the rule of thumb. The guys played QB and basketball and played LB in his Sr season which was his second season of HS outside of FS year where he wasa QB like I stated.
As someone said OUTLIER, it'll happen.

I guess we should recruit all 5'10 HS sophomore guards that get cut by their basketball team in case they're Micheal Jordan?

Get out of here.

Brian Urlacher had one offer..New Mexico State...

These stories happen but I’ll take the 4-5 stars and take my chances..

In that same interview he said the offer was made with a "Accept it now, or I will give the spot to the guy visiting tomorrow." He said because it was the only offer he had, he took it in 15 seconds!

 

[randolph herndon]

Yes like Jason Taylor going to Toledo.

 

[DB4]

Yes like Jason Taylor going to Toledo.

Akron*

And if Miami offered Mack and he committed, this message board would have melted down for the coaching staff doing it.

 

[LatinCane]

Awesome! Great story! Guy plays nasty as ****. Amazing dedication to the sport and development while at Buffalo. Good for him! He wreaked havoc last night and has only been on the team for a week with limited knowledge of the defense.

New Mexico

[westcoastcanes]

There's a lot more 4-5 stars that crash and burn than there are Khalil Macks who fly under the radar then blow up.

But overall you better have a roster full of highly ranked guys if you expect to win year in and out. Developing diamonds in the rough will only get you so far.

That is a terrible method of comparison, hopefully nobody else reads this and thinks it is even remotely reasonable to analyze statistics and value improbable anomalies any more than they should be.

Naw it’s still a lot. However with so many talented players who are ranked, you just can’t take them all. There’s a Khalil Mack every year but there’s also a talented 4 or 5 star baller ready to go. You can’t get them all. It was a FAU, FII, UCF, USF, Bethune, FAMU, etc miss too. Look at Marquise Brown. He is from Hollywood. However, look at the 4 and 5 star recruits we brought in. It just happens.

 

[g8rh8rMD]

Statistical outlier. Last 10 national champs (probably more) win with 4 and 5 star players and top 5 classes

Which came first, the chicken or the egg?

 

[rustywalkedaway]

In other breaking news, Maker Mayfield won the Heisman and was the number 1 overall pick, and Tom Brady was a sixth round pick.

What is the point of these threads?

 

[Cajuncane]

he went to New Mexico and the whole MW offered

in the interview with Dan Patrick he said New Mexico was the ONLY offer he rec'd and it was a take it or leave it offer so unless he was lying i'm thinking no one else offered.

But maybe you are right and he's misremembering..

 

[Miami Nights]

Good/great coaches will bring in good/great players. They'll even find guys like this Mack kid. They may miss on a kid but what they already have on the roster makes up for it and they get another great player in another cycle. For example..butch Davis missed out on derrick Gibson but he had Ed reed and Miami added Sean Taylor later on.

 

[jsy]

There will always be outliers.

That’s why it makes sense to take a couple lower rated guys to mix in with the blue chips

It becomes an issue when the lower guys start to become the majority

 

[Geo305]

He was a basketball player until his senior year and he was coming off of a torn patella tendon.

He was basically found by one dude who was coaching at Liberty...that coach got a job at Buffalo and took him with him.

That one dude...Robert Wimberly...a Miami, FL native. Responsible for getting Buckshot Calvert to Liberty.

Funny how that works.

Eye for talent. Buckshot is legit.

 

[OriginalGatorHater]

Great find. Wrap it up folks. Lets only recruit 2 stars going forward.

Hollywood Brown was really interested in Miami but something with adademics I was told was the hurdle.

Wow I didn’t know that.
