New commit

- Start date
He really starts to shine in the fall when the air becomes...................
Being a DB as well as WR might come in handy. He can break up passes that would have been picks by our QBs.
Two of our projects at Seafty (Taylor and Guthrie) have both had serious injuries. I wonder if this may be a replacement for one of them.

Yeah, his recruiting is like anti-viarga.
Is there a name for that? Oh yeah, marriage.

If the coaches like him, I like him
Until our QB room and passing game dramatically improve we are going to struggle to attract and keep highly recruited WRs and TEs

They probably still like him.If only the coaches hung out on this board, we’d be 3-0.
Just means he hasn’t been evaluated by the services.
In this day of uber-connectivity, the recruiting services and the fat slob dorks they employ have never been worse at their charter
They can’t eval talent for shit
Because he has 2 P5 offers
Nothing more, nothing less
These sites don’t have the breadth to see everyone or the depth to know what they’re looking at
Just dweebs reading self-reported measurables
I don’t worry about star ratings.
I’m much more interested in who else is recruiting a kid
It just means our staff is ahead of them. IMO the network of coaches they have gives them an edge over recruiting services.
most people look at the offers which is different than being recruited. If a kid is wanted and truly recruited that’s legit vs the 25 offers listed on sites. Everyone sees Bama, OSU or OU and thinks we beat them out or whoever. If those schools actually recruited said kid 9 out of 10 times we aren’t getting them.
As a poster stated above, if a school has them on an official then they are serious
Perhaps he could run through a receiver who was waiting for an underthrown pass and then minutes later run a deep ball pattern that is out of his reach. We have never seen that before.
Unfortunately I like that Iowa offered him, they've been pretty good with evals imo.
Worthless is too strong a word. Not 100% accurate? Sure. But they use a lot of metrics to form their conclusions. Offers, visits, interest, measurables, etc (self-reported or otherwise). What else are they supposed to use?
Think about the kind of payroll it would take to actually have an expert evaluate film on every player in the country. And keep it current throughout the season. There are over 1M players on like 15K teams. It's simply not sustainable. These sites also have to make a profit, otherwise why do it?
Evaluating prospects, at any level, is a pretty inexact science and nobody ever gets it right 100% of the time, hence busts and sleepers. The top couple sites get it about as close as can be realistically expected.
Exactly. He plays at a smaller school for Texas standards. He’s in a Houston metro of 7million people (3.5x) the state of Nebraska. There’s 30 million in the state of Texas. Some yahoos on the board don’t think there’s any under the radar kids that are D1 material that fall through the cracks?? Give me a break…
I agree if by recruiting you mean actually going after a kid. Too often the focus is put on “offers” which don’t mean anything if the kid cannot even commit to the school.
