Hopefully we can all celebrate moar DBs of the right caliber at 7:05p on Wednesday.
It100 % does ,i said it would when it first came up. People around the program were pumped for it. Only these negative twats here could believe it wouldn’t help. Everyone minus graves is oos right now , when has that ever happened ?NIL might have something to do with our improved recruiting as well.
Never since Graves is from FL...It100 % does ,i said it would when it first came up. People around the program were pumped for it. Only these negative twats here could believe it wouldn’t help. Our entire class is oos right now , when has that ever happened ?
Forgot him, so one lol. I edited the postNever since Graves is from FL...
I'm just playing bro, thanks for all the great info! Much appreciated from someone in Hawaii with no connects...Forgot him, so one lol
Lose a Williams & immediately replace him with another. We byke ?
He’s not an instant contributor but he has all the tools to be a very good college player somedayWe ****** Wednesday night.
Funny enough, pretty big spread on him with Rivals vs 247.
Rivals does not have him ranked nationally, and has him 52nd in the state. And a 3-star.
247 has him as the 167th ranked overall prospect, the 22nd best kid in the state, and a 92 graded 4-star. Same grade as kids like Khamauri Rogers, Julian Humphrey, Wesley Bissainthe, Isaiah Bond, etc.
Andrew Ivins, who I'm not sure knows whether a football is stuffed with feathers or filled with air, but I digress, has him as a potential Day 2 pick. And this is a pretty **** good eval if you ask me. 6 picks as a freshman? 7 as a sophomore? That's a **** ballhawk. And broke his wrist on the first series of a game, refused to come off the field, and led his team in tackles that night? Plus that film? His whole junior tape is him just sticking kids in run support. Fellas....sign me all the way the fvck up with this kid. Offers from some monsters. Long, lanky, and a ton of room to add 30-40 pounds of muscle. This kid, settling in somewhere at 6'1 - 6'2 and 215 pounds with that frame and athleticism and ball skills. This could be a **** of a prospect.
"Tall, rangy athlete with some length in the arms. Skinny, even for a high schooler. A ballhawk of a safety that can patrol the backend of a defense and create takeaways. Uses long stride to chew up turf. Able to change directions better than most. Reads the quarterback well from his deep alignment. Quickly recognizes and diagnoses route concepts. Fills the alley with purpose as a run defender. Always looking to strike someone. Described by coaches as a “tone setter” given physical style of play. Broke his wrist on the first defensive series of a game as a junior and refused to leave the field. Ended up leading his team in tackles that night. Has some experience in man coverage, but that’s an area of his game that he can keep improving. Must also add some muscle in both the upper and lower halves if he’s going to be able to wrangle tight ends and running backs in college. Picked off six passes as a freshman and seven more as a sophomore before quarterbacks started looking the other way. Should find plenty of success at the Power 5 level. Could excell in a single-high system. Longer frame will likely have him on the NFL's radar."
I’d be very surprised if we don’t learn at some point that Shoop is the “play caller” while maintaining the concept of Manny as DC.

His style of plays reminds me of another certain rangy FS from Orlando a while back that went on to win a natty or 2 and turned into a 1st round pick...
Agreed. Personally I believe developmental kids like Williams have a 10x hit rate compared to kids in the mold of the LB from NE, (that is, top-tier athlete but mediocre film). Would love to have him in the classYeah, at 170, he's a developmental kid for sure. But he looks like a really nice prospect to me.
Rivals is butt.We ****** Wednesday night.

Ok f I’m not mistaken 247 hasn’t been able to update the measurements of a lot of players. He may be a bit heavier than 170 at this point. How much idk but a lot of the 247 height and weights have been way off for some players and why the staff has been so adamant at seeing players in person.Yeah, at 170, he's a developmental kid for sure. But he looks like a really nice prospect to me.
sheeesh, I'll take your word for it. This energy in this cycle feels waaaaaaaaaaay different then years past. My boy Cribby taking care of my mope syndrome. I actually see very good things and if you sunshine pumping I trust yo ***. Cant wait for the season and recruiting, im geeked right now it feels good it feels good.....pause.It100 % does ,i said it would when it first came up. People around the program were pumped for it.
