PODCAST: The Bank 12/6

[Da Jumbo Mutombo]

What I gathered from the bank:

Rudolph possible academic casualty
Shavers probably dropped
Blount more likely than Stone/Stewart

I'll be honest: Blount doesn't excite me. He sounds really immature and will be a portal guy next year at this time. Reclassified guys don't work out almost every time, plus committing potentially three times in three months is a giant red flag. Hard pass.

All valid concerns. If we get Blount, he will be the first five star I have minimal expectations for.

However, still want him. Just for the perception that S FL 5 stars need to stay home.

So does Taulia need a waiver or not? Conflicting reports. Geo saying he redshirted his Covid year and still has a free year but Dmoney saying he’s out and needs a waiver

Blount needs time to train and build up strength to play with the big boys. He’s very young.

 

[Hegemon]

I don’t think he’s immature just cause he’s unsure. Why is that tied to being immature? Maybe he can’t make up his mind, that’s a trait of life even as adults. Like how does that make someone immature?

I think its more his support system.

I dont blame the kids. I blame the adults around them.

Would you consider him a whale?

 

[filmcane]

Lol walter is the best. That is Cristobal when it comes to portal tampering


You want a DT? I can get you a DT, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me.

POST OF THE WEEK!!!!

[WestEndZone]

Thank you!!!

miAmi isn’t getting smith

Anything but FSU. He can Dalvin Cook us for 4 years. Still hoping he comes here though

 

[cane3636]

Blount is going to have to work his *** off to get on the field at Miami, and if he does then great. If not I could see him becoming unhappy if he flips

 

[ssvir]

Numbers, I’m guessing Blount and/or another higher rated DL are coming

@Ghandi said just a few posts above yours that its likely grades. He's transferred at least 3x so far.

Why would a top 100 DL get processed out?

 

[ssvir]

miAmi isn’t getting smith

Thanks for your insight.

 

[ssvir]

I'm a little surprised on Shavers. IIRC the staff was super high on him.

Isn't he a tweener? One of those DL in HS that we try to convert to a LB and typically fail miserably.

 

[YankeesCane]

Blount wants in, you takle him

But he does seem like a player who would portal if things go how he selfishly wants it

 

[The U is back to work]

Blount is going to have to work his *** off to get on the field at Miami, and if he does then great. If not I could see him becoming unhappy if he flips

If he’s 250 and is a DT he’s going to need to bulk up no matter where he goes

 

[JHallCanes]

Blount is definitely a whale and stating the obvious but flipping him while all this turmoil is surrounding FSU would be beautiful

 

[HurricanesR1]

A 17 year old is immature?

Ya

Don't

Say

Some are way more immature than others. This dude might commit to Miami, FSU and Miami again within 10 weeks. Yeah, I'm not convinced that after one year at whatever school he chooses, he'll decide to bounce to another.

 

[HurricanesR1]

Would you consider him a whale?

I don't. He's a Junior in high school and is rushing his development at a position where size and strength really come into play.

It is what it is

Do you know the resources (time to flip, NIL) Miami has allocated to this young man? Both are considerable.

CFB is run like a major business, and nobody in CFB is in the business of burning said resources for the **** of it.
