Slaton & Herbert or 2017 class is a BUST

Gator Board not that impressed with Herbert... some of them dont really want him
Truth be told, I'm not real impressed with him either...

Especially, if he's being recruited as a Tackle, he's a Guard all the way & would need a redshirt.

His technique is very sloppy & he's lazy off the snap when facing a speed rusher... Talented athletic ability, but still pretty raw imo.

I would still take him in this class, but I don't think he could be a day 1 contributor.

I hope we land Slaton, but like I said Kai most likely goin to UF

UF bout to land another 4 star OT in Tony Gray. They may not have room for Herbert.

FIFY

Link to article about 2017 OT Tony Gray and recruiting.

“I know where I’m going, where I want to go,” Gray told SEC Country.

However, the Under Armour All-American isn’t giving any hints to the media. During his interview session this week, he admitted to purposely playing games with his comments.

“I’m just making everybody else guess,”said Gray, who plans to announce his decision on or shortly before National Signing Day.

This guy sounds gayer than Richard Simmon's workout shorts.
The Turds can have him.
 
Nope Donaldson is a much better player than both of them... it would be disappointing if we don't land 1 of them though

He is better but last time I checked, there are 5 OL playing all at once. We need them badly.

i agree, but ill take loyalty over players that don't wanna come.

Yeah that is some emotional nonsense. KWII and others didn't want to be here also. Loyalty before the LOI is worthless. The staff's job is to sign the best of the best. I don't want kids that only want to be Canes, I want the best of the best regardless who they were fans of beforehand.

Pete got theee dudes going full parakeet repeating this **** about Herbert and Slaton.

Herbert is no sure thing. You dudes act like he's Orlando Pace or Jon Ogden. He could be good or could wind up a massive bust. Slaton has more dog in him.
 
Meh they are both above average. However it doesnt seem that either are can't miss three years and to the NFL type guys. The slaton kid is pretty good. That kid that went to UF last year who started for them this year was a big miss. Sucks because he was committed at one point.

Can we please ban broke? I'm so tired of Broke and his don Bailey jr act.

I get tired of shills.

The OP is just saying what Pete said a month ago. quit moving the goalposts. For the past month all Pete has been saying is this class comes down to signing these two linemen.

The meltdown on here if we don't get Slaton will be massive.

And UM will deserve it.

I'm sure the folks on here who report directly to Blake James will try to quiet it down as usual...

But my donation, as usual, is tied 100 percent to our Rivals recruiting ranking.

So get it done or do without, just like last year

He takes the same approach when he's handing out gifts on Christmas. Not enough cookies? Tepid milk? No presents!
