The Work 7-17

Heard stuff on Rivals MB that FSU is feeling less and less confident about Cole. That's the sort of trend I like to see! Also heard that Cole hurt his stock with a couple off field issues?
 
Feel like Corn could be Phillip Buchanon esque. Smooth, fast, ball hawk, special teams threat.

Feel like Artie could be Antrel Rolle esque. Tough, fast, athletic, can come up in run support, aggressive db.


As for Dortch, I heard raves from some way back that staff views him with a ceiling like Kelly Jennings.. I would take that in a heartbeat, but Dortch still needs to bulk and develop more.


Howard primed for a big year. Showed a lot of flashes last year, think he makes the big jump this year. If he lives up to hype, all-American shutdown corner.


Also. Think we go after and land the ones we want. Cole, C. Davis and D. Davis.

Davante Davis has the highest ceiling between those 3. He could really really blow up this year.

Im most excited about Carlton Davis though. Very tough and gritty. He has legit offers.

Artie is way faster than Antrell, but not as physical though. Still Artie from a physical standpoint is prototypical. Wait two more years til the combine. If he can get locating the ball straightened out he is a top 5 pick.

Davante DAvis is #1 cb on my board. That size, with his ball skills is rare. Cant lose him to fsu, which could happen with lane up there

-artie burns is a lot like ryan mcneil. Ol school. But has body frame to get to antrels size, hes faster though
-dortch is about 110 pds literally, but is one of fastest on team...and can really cover. I like his upside.kelly jennings was rail thin...but lasted in league
-elder pbuch comparison is spot.....kid locked down in spring.

Davis is now at BTW and they will hand deliver that kid to UM hopefully, I didn't think Davis was close with Lane ( can you share your thoughts on that). I couldn't tell you who the last BTW kid was that went to FSU over UM other than Mathew Thomas. As long as UM has a good season whch would 11+ wins UM hopefully will be fine.

**There were some reports out there that Jordan Cronkrite would be visiting Ohio State next week, but Cronkrite’s father told me today that those rumors are false. Miami coaches invited the Cronkrite family in next week to hash out any lingering issues regarding the recruitment of the RB position. I get the sense that we will hear less and less rumblings about Cronkrite being “unhappy”, especially following next week’s meeting.

**Gulliver LB Dominic Sheppard is a kid that Miami fans have been asking about recently. Sheppard does not have an offer right now and the status of a potential offer will hinge on his senior tape. Sheppard has intriguing size, but the questions about him are about his speed (5.0 40) and up to this point in his career he has not used his physicality to dominate games. Some good performances senior year could land him an offer from Miami.

**Rashad Fenton is in the same situation as Sheppard. Miami likes him, but he just is not the most explosive athlete, which has become a prerequisite to play DB under Golden. He could also earn an offer with good senior tape.

**I mentioned Ricky DeBerry last week as a prospect who had some Miami interest but would be an extremely difficult pull. While I still wouldn’t say that the Canes are the frontrunner, Miami feels very good about how DeBerry’s unofficial visit went earlier this week (Monday). It could be enough to land an official visit from him, which would then give them a real legitimate chance.

**I wanted to touch on Miami’s recruitment of Tarvarus McFadden, which I have posted about multiple times. Miami “offered” McFadden a few months back but since then have not really recruited him. Now some of you may say “Rivals has him as a 5-star and he has offers from every school in the country, why isn’t Miami on him?” First off, McFadden has not produced at the level of a 5-star up to this point in his career. Some people have speculated that Miami does not like him because of a “bad attitude”, but it has absolutely nothing to do with that. They just don’t like him as a football player. I have seen McFadden in both the camp and game settings and I tend to agree with Miami. He has the size, but is not very physical and does not run particularly well either. That is not a good combination for a defensive back.

**Miami has a legitimate chance with JUCO DL Jeremiah Ledbetter. He has emerged as one of their top targets. I will have more on that over the weekend.

**Carlton Davis is at the top of Miami’s board at corner along with Tyrek Cole. Good chance with both right now.

**Side note: It seems like people have forgotten about Corn Elder. Do not be surprised to see him starting by the middle of the season. Coaches absolutely rave about him. He will be involved in the return game as well.

**Quick note on Michael Wyche: I’ve seen some debate about what he was actually weighing right now, and I can confirm that he is at 360.

Twitter Questions
1)From @Catch_One9 - do you see yearby playing week 1
Yes, I see Yearby getting a few touches from the start. He is the 2nd most talented back on the roster and will be a great change of pace threat off the bat.

2) From @Therula99 - Why aren't the canes recruiting that 2016 4 star cb from Booker T. His film is pretty impressive also
This question is in reference to Dontye Carriere-Williams, who I have posted about a few times on here. Carriere-Williams is a supremely talented cover corner who has shined in the 7-on-7 circuit. Miami likes him, but they are waiting to see his varsity film. I would be very surprised if he does not have an offer by the middle of the season.

3)From @RBaehrle - Not recruiting related, but predictions for PR and KR this season?
I expect Stacy Coley, Corn Elder, Malcolm Lewis, Herb Waters, and Phillip Dorsett all to be involved in the return game. No surprises there.

IM NOT SAYING WYCHE IS CODY. But if you remember or go back and look at Terrance Cody's story he came from Juco also and won a championship at both levels. Cody is 6-4 and it says at one point it tipped the scale at 400 lbs lol..

When he arrived at Alabama he was also 360 lbs and played at that weight at NG in the 3-4.. He got drafted in the 2nd round to the Ravens and is now 340..

In the 3-4 you need a NG that doesn't get pushed around and believe me Wchye is that dude that's going to make the difference even if it's only for half the game..

I don't know about you but I'm tired of seeing the D-line getting blown off the ball..

Wyche doesn't even look terribly out of shape but say by game time he's 345-350 and he's holding up 2 OL the change will be drastic..

For a nose tackle he looks like he is in great shape.

Only noticeable bad weight looks to be his cheeks.

You know how many Vince Wilfork's there have been the past 20 years?

1, and his name was Vince Wilfork.

Same as there has only been 1 Sean Taylor and 1 Ed Reed.

We are talking about one of the greatest Nose Tackles of all time.
Just because someone is big doesn't make him the next Vince.

Forget about his Patriot's career, go watch his Miami highlights, and then you will understand why comparing anybody to Vince Wilfork is insulting to Vince.

Lulz.... You created a thread saying that he was very fast, physical and elite after watching him:

That was from a year and a half ago.

The more I saw, the less I liked him.

Yeah, kind of like some woman you get involved with.
