Have to offer the kid, IMO.
By the looks of things, there seems to be a lot of RB's better than him. And being that he's 5'9 175lbs, the only other option would probably be DB.
Duke Johnson, 5'10" and 180lbs, are those 5 lbs really that important?
Its not all size, sure that helps a lot, but the point is another big chunk is will, determination and heart. Thats why so many 5 stars fail and 2 stars succeed. They may have never been the physical specimens others were in high school, but they put their head down and learned how to play better. Thats your Bradys, your Brees', your welkers, your zach thomases, and yes even your ray lewis' (he was undersized for an lb remember?)
I don't care about competition. I don't care about size. I don't care if the kid rides the bench for 4 years. You give Ray Lewis' kid a freakin scholarship.

This kid is nowhere near Duke's level.
My question is why offer him a scholarship? Ray can pay his son's way and that frees up a ship for someone else. It's not like money is a problem for his family. Let the young man know we really want him and if he wasn't uber rich he would get a scholarship, but since he can pay his own way it would help the team out immensely if he paid his own way to free up a scholarship for someone else to help the team out. Why is that a problem? Preferred walkon I guess.
