The Bank (1/31)

What is Flowers timeline now that he has reclassified? Spring ball usually starts in early March, is he trying to be enrolled by that time? Need to be all over this kid the next couple of months.
Looks like the normal signing period ends April 1st, so theoretically he has up to 2 months from today (Jan 31st) do decide where he is going. I assume he would enroll for summer classes in late May.

last night's Canes Connection webinar gave some really awesome extended details on this stuff.

If my high school doesn't allow early enrolling i'm out. There's gotta be another high school out there that brings something similar to the table while allowing early enrollees.
 
Jackson Cantwell is obviously another top target but that might be the biggest recruiting battle of 2026 cycle. Every big school wants him.

The confusing part is Mcgahee went to Nebraska early. So how did that happen.

Exactly. I never understood this especially since these kids are all about making business decisions.

Enrolling early sometimes is the difference between significant playing time in the fall and then getting a pay raise the following year.
 
He really struggled in pass protection at the all-star camp/game a few weeks ago.
Yes he did and no way a finished product or probably worthy of his ranking. Just saying, he is a powerful dude and a great run blocker at his size. Potential through the roof.
 
Hoping to see Shedarius Toodle in a Canes uniform purely based off the name alone

I honestly don’t recall a year over the past decade at least where we haven’t heard the same report. That said, with high school and camp circuits becoming more and more professionalized I’m not sure it’s a lie. But it also doesn’t mean our new recruits are any more prepared than any other top program’s recruits. Rising tide lifts all boats.

The answer might just be in the phrase, "strength and conditioning testing benchmarks in testing". Are the testing benchmarks themselves in testing? Like, are we beta testing new, experimental strength and conditioning testing benchmarks? Maybe new sports science things like "timed clapping to 10," the "handstand 10-yard dash," or "holding your breath in the pool".

If they're new testing benchmarks, that might be a logical explanation for how it's possible this year's (i.e., the first ever year) results are the best (notwithstanding the 2025 class being ranked worse than the prior two classes).

Just looking forward to the annual still shot photos that r slightly altered w/ dimmed lights to show musckles, & the edited 20-30 sec clips of off season S&C, so everyone can call everyone elite & fast.
I expect immaculate culture reports.
 
is the team having meetings to go over the scheme yet? Hopeful to hear that the defensive guys are understanding Heatherman’s scheme and the portal DBs are able to line up and communicate. As you send the other day on the Wednesday pod, Guidry couldn’t have the players adjust to his scheme, so hopefully the new DBs are able to process.
Hetherman talked about that in his opening presser. Said first priority is instilling fundamentals then scheme will be installed in Spring.
