some strong 'cruiting by Smith
 
I like the LBs speed and quickness but he can only blitz. I need to see him in space and coverage

How come I never see Travonte Citizen mentioned when there is talk about RB’s? Is he not expected to be ready to go?

Because its hush hush but from when the injury happened it was a devastating injury.. Really bad.. Read between the lines and guys saying we need portal backs he probably never dons jersey and probably never looks the same if he does..

I add disclaimer of these are my thoughts and I hope I am 100% completely wrong.. But I been around awhile and know how to read tea leaves.. Very unfortunate but practices are tuff and fizical!!! 2 years possibly missing.. yikes

It’s unfortunate, but it’s highly likely he never plays a down here.

Very weak local class.

I know I'm a South Florida homer, but I never had a problem with going national. My problem was going national on a budget, which is what we were doing. That's how we ended up with the Zach Dykstras and Brian Polendeys of the world.

When you spend $8 million on an elite recruiter with a national profile, and you're handing out top-of-the-market NIL deals, you can actually win battles instead of wasting time and grabbing scraps.

The one kid I'm surprised they don't seem to be heavy on locally is Ryan Mack. They are recruiting him but seems like more of a backup plan

I'm not sure if Stephenson could commit right now either...I'd be happy with him, but at same time they are on some big time national edge prospects. Interesting to hear your @DMoney's take on whether Stephenson's offer is commitable right this moment.

There are som tri-county kids that I think are takes, or are at least on the cusp but I can understand why we are holding out (Knight imo is decent and we seem to have him near top of board, Levy, Philostin, Lyle, Rodriguez, Shavers...Are all in that category.). The other 8-9 (not including Stephenson and not including Howard who I don't know on) with offers I believe we will get at least 6 of and who knows maybe someone has a big senior year.

Flowers is a downhill, aggressive mf that would thrive in this scheme.

Watch this and tell me they aren’t very similar. The aggression, the timing and instincts, the closing ability, even similar explosion and pop upon contact. 56 was limited physically but he made a **** ton of plays behind the LOS and cleaned up a TON between the tackles. That was a **** of an eval by Golden (Yes, he committed to Al Golden and was our first commit for the 2016 cycle). Flowers may be a little bigger, but their tape are almost carbon copies and again, a great match for this scheme.

Isn’t Mack a legacy?

Elite football player. We need more guys like him and Day that bring physicality and instincts on every snap.

Agreed! Physicality and instincts are what I saw on every play of the Keyshawn Flowers film. That kid can play!

Calling you out on this bull****.

Trying to blame the coaches on this is a real ***** move.
