2023 RB Mark Fletcher (commits to OSU* & De-Commits)

[Canesq]

We were begging to throw bags around for YEARS. Let’s not get self conscious about it.

For real…I don’t GAF…ain’t no moral victories. An elite player can win you football games.

If he's comparable to Franklin, he's far from "elite."

He's better

#34 would be on our LB board with Manny still here

 

[407cane]

They are setting themselves up for failure on the gator boards but they are gonna meltdown when he chooses Miami officially and I am so ready for it

 

[canecrazy23]

To me Baxter is the only ELITE RB in this class. He’s got a chance to be a game changing RB. Richard Young has some Trey Saunders in him IMO. Baxter is TX OL continues to develop will be a PROBLEM.

Nah Young is just as good and stronger than Baxter.

No he's not...Baxter is without question the best RB in Fl....

how did we lose this guy to texas man?
Bama or UGA is understandable but **** what could have been

Hmmm... maybe it was their top draft eligible RB running for more yards than our entire team.

@mirvin88 My bad I got this wrong. Tweet below says he's signing on Wednesday. I guess there's a possibility he signs but doesn't announce but don't think that's realistic. So I guess we'll know on Signing Day.

The quote cutoff at the end where Fletcher added “but Billy doesn’t shower and smells like he’s been working the all the day shift at the carnival”

 

[K.O.M.A.]

This man's middle name is incredible.

Quo'vadis.

Mark Quo'vadis Fletcher Jr.

Fancy MF'r.

Which translates to "where are you going?"... seriously. Hopefully the answer is UM

I think Texas just went out and got the top few players on their overall board…. As did we, our top 3 were just different than theirs.

Sounds like we'll know on ESD he just wouldn't be an EE.

Eh...play with Arch...they have Bijan who will be a high draft pick. Plus TX NIL. Etc. Not a hard sell. Can't blame him.

 

[Mi.Cane]

Does this kid plan on announcing before ESD?

I believe Wednesday he announces

 

[DiegoCane]

Watched the Fletcher tape, not all that impressive. Hope I'm wrong but don't get the hype

 

[PIPO]

Brady...Dorsey...etc...Candle wanted to bring his own guys, and that was axed...This is the one thing about Mario that's perplexing...if Saban can change his offensive philosophy, then Mario needs to follow suit...

@HOLISTIC CANE - you are a respected poster here with connections in CFB, etc.

I see you disagreeing on different posts by different people on Gattis and I wanted to know if you would be willing to share your opinion on the Gattis back story or current situation? If not, cool!

 

[WestGA'Cane]

Wonder what Fletcher thinks of the staggeringly high (rumored) number being thrown at Innis? They do go to the same school after all. I don't know, kid's a really good player. Reminds me of Mark Walton in Todd Gurley's body, if that makes sense. 'Cane at heart, so probly comes down to how much ($$) we value him v the Gator, or other options we could potentially pursue. The value of rb's in today's game isn't what it once was, and if the guys up north are desperate it could be a factor. Looks like the ball's in our court, so that's a good thing.

well if anything

- it makes in roads at AH

- the turds want him (so did ohio state, badly)

- and we have only 3 backs currently on our roster (1 being a former walk on) and CJ coming in
