This discussion has been going on because of our Lb whiff, because 75% of this board saw the greene and flowe whiffs coming for miles away and said so, because we had major lb needs in this class which haven’t been addressed, and because hyppolite is a local kid who athletically looks qualified to plus. And because athletically, flagg didn’t look like a standout. So yeah, frustration with manure diaz spilling over.No. I’m not asking that so it’s not the better comparison for me. DWins keeps talking about Hype-olite like he’s Ray Lewis and claiming Flagg is already JAGG.
Is Hype-olite better than the whiff we took? Of course he is. So is about 400 other guys.
In fairness to both of them, they’re not alternatives. Flagg is an inside kid and hyppolite outside (greene, flowe again).
I personally was favorable on taking flagg’s commitment last summer when it appeared to be 1 out of 4 expected. He’s got a nose for the ball, and seems to tackle well, though isn’t from the film I’ve seen a violent hitter or someone who avoids or sheds blocks all that great.
Hyppolite I have said looked to me like a kid we should have targeted. fast, athletic, decent frame.
