This young man is the steal of this class. He will be a dude for us. Reminds me of the class with Elijah Moore and Mark Pope. Most people were enamored with Pope because he was rated a 5-Star, even though he wasn’t very productive in high school. Moore jumped off the screen on his film. He was electric with the ball in his hands. Many posters back then said that we didn’t need to recruit Moore hard because we had Pope committed. That turned out to be a big mistake.

Stars don’t mean *****, unless you prove it on the field of play. Dylan has proven that he’s a must get, and his rating means squat. Amari Cooper wasn’t super highly rated until Saban went after him and landed his commitment. Then Alfredo Golden was way too late to the party after not making him a priority prospect at his camp, even though everyone and their momma could tell that he was a baller.

Evaluation over stars. We have great talent evaluators now and developers, in my opinion. Horton is exhibit A. Dude’s potential is now translating on the field of play, and he’s a budding star.

That's only partially what happened. Alfraud wanted amari at safety initially. It wasn't until late in the process he came around to him playing wr. Same thing we were doing with ahmmon. We just came around on him relatively quickly.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised to see him leave. Would suck cause I like this kids game. But we both know the traction we have out there with some really big names to go along with how we feel about some of the jits... It would probably be beneficial for him to go elsewhere. But again I hope we keep him cause I like this kids game.
