USC transfer CB N! C. Wright
- Thread starter HBK4life
- Start date
Crap, I was looking forward to a good ol' hair-pulling, panties on fire, nutz grabbin' panic.
I thought this was a done deal a day or 2 ago. Maybe that was just crystal ball predictions. Good get. Now we'll see if he plays football or just acts like it.
Jesus, with 47 D-Backs in the room, the D coaches need to be like the Joker and have some aggressive expansion.
He is a grad transfer. They have to jump through more hoops than a normal undergraduate portal player. He had to get accepted into a grad program before he could officially announce something.
The USC fans I spoke to say he will be a starter but not an All American. At least contribute.meaningful snaps.
He's a replacement for Ethan Nation. Their ratings that I saw are pretty much identical if you use the updated Wright ranking. I would think that it will take him a while to get up to speed and in football playing shape. My guess is that he will need to rebuild his confidence after how last season went for him.
He's certainly more then a replacement for Nation. Started almost a full season in the Pac 12 and has played in 16 games. Who knows how he will perform here, but getting an experienced P5 CB is a godsend. He's also 6' and legitimately ran track in Cali. Nation was more like 5'9" and had played in 7 games.
You will have to excuse me if I am immune to transfer hype. The guy struggled mightily last season on a bad defense. Hasn't been on a team since last October. And there he sits, available in the portal in mid-June. Forgive me if I don't get too excited. But he does have the highest HS recruiting ranking of any transfer since that 5 star who robbed a vape shot in his underpants.
You don't have to be excited but saying he's a replacement for a tiny corner who barely played isn't a correct statement. He's not undersized, and he actually has legit P5 experience. Exactly what the doctor ordered for a team with an open CB slot heading into July.
10.84 100, 22.29 200 and probably split at least 50 in a 4x400. Serious speed for a corner.
Big bonus. Young kids have a compete target, less worry on the Blye Hill return date, and Coop doesn’t have to deviate his plan for Malcolm.
This part. At worst it's an upgraded band aid. At best it's an NFL corner in 2 years....... seems like a pitch you swing at.
Exactly. He's a CB replacing a CB who is leaving. I didn't say that he was a similar player.
If we can get a solid 2 deep, we are made this year. We will go bowling…
I compared their rating. I did not say anything about similar physical characteristics or anything else. I guess I did say that they played the same position.
