7A is Georgia's highest classification. Competition should be pretty good.

Here is a great article showing insight into player and personality of 2023 DT Kayden McDonald. He may be a lil Kountry , hence my comparison with former cane Curtis Porter. Don't get it twisted Kountry Boi's tend to be a helluva load manning the middle of the dline

This kid should be ranked higher for sure! Production VS good talent and good measurables. Don’t need to be 6’5 at DT to be a beast.. lowest man wins. Best stats ever for a HS DT??? Maybe…

Curtis Porter? Weird comparison since I don't remember him ever playing a meaningful snap.

Some of the best DT film I’ve seen for the Class of 23.

Shows great use of hands and strength to disengage from OT’s. Plays with good leverage. Shows explosive burst and closing speed to engage ball carriers. Hits like a Mack truck, and knows how to hold gap integrity.

I was also impressed with his athleticism on the offensive side of the ball. For a dude that’s 6 foot 3 and 320, he is extremely nimble.

Would be extremely pleased if we add him to our class.

Doesn’t seem to be a take for UGA(which is fine) and doesn’t really have a leader so we can get our way into this recruitment.

If you’re putting up elite stats in Gwinnett, then you’re elite. Gwinnett County is one of the better counties for HS football in the country.

Competition level? @KANE

North Gwinnett is pretty affluent. Maybe he is a softy.

Competition level? @KANE

Largest classification (7A) in the state (GA). Really competitive region. **** good competition during the season and post season. If he puttin up numbers in that region, he’s a take all day long.

 

[JHallCanes]

Wait so now we are “expanding the board” for other elite talent at DT?

Not some random nobody that we hope can get in someone’s way a few plays a game?

Lawd…

Competition level? @KANE

Tops in Georgia pretty much

 

[Billy D Williams]

Him and the Jacksonville kid are the big Chittlin eating DT's we need to be considered an elite program. Guys who can disrupt thing before they get started, then let the LB's eat.

 

[HOLISTIC CANE]

The tackles for loss though…

 

[Paranos]

Well he did use good form.

He sacked the West Virginia QB in the Southwest Airlines Manure Bowl in Orlando and was never seen again.

I would add him to John Walker and Jordan Hall as possible 1T that we need to add to our room. I would take 2/3 of these guys and then a 3T like Hicks would be amazing. Bain could also be a DT in pass rushing situations down the road.

Impressive! I was not expecting him to squat as low as he went. 500 lbs 3 times would be about what, 10 reps of 405? Perhaps a max of 550-575?

I am greedy I want McDonald, Walker, Hall, and Samu Taumanupepe with Bain as a tweener DT/DE. Yup that's 5 interior dlinemen in the 2023 class alone. The game is won upfront in the trenches with 300+lbs wardaddy types that could run track, playing multiple fronts.
