We are going to have a loaded as OL class if we get this chidi kid plus all of our currents. Not to mention the possibilities of Richmond and Prince even though they are long shots. We are loading up on guards. Leads me to believe we see cotton as a tackle. Fluker type

Chidi would be Fluker 2.0. I could see him as a right tackle. Just got to get that kid some coaching. He has only been playing football for a year or two.

Too much want. Not enough space.

Best guesses for how we finish this class?
-Payne
-Chidi
-Hill


Lose Moton and Charlot.

Apparently there is a rumor on reddit that some of our players are sick and being quarantined. It's on the internet, so it must be true.

Chidi could scratch his knees without bending over.

Warmack is taller and has longer arms than I expected.

Damn. That's longer than Fluker's.

Kinda makes me wonder about the accuracy. Warmack, Prince and CVO have longer arms than every major OL prospect in the 2013 draft class.

I read KJ Hill article on the Arky 247 board. Sounds like he is going to be looking closely at Arky's bowl game to see if they throw it more.

Sounds like the differences in offense could be a factor with him.

The big key positions that I think we need to consistently recruit at an elite level is at OL, DL, LB, and CB. Skill position players are fantastic and are my favorites to get, but those 4 positions is what gives us the opportunity to play every game where we are favored and will never have the potential of getting blow out.

If I had to rank them on importance:

1. Cornerback
2. OL
3. LB
4. DL
5. QB- We have proven that we can win a national title with a mediocre QB (McElroy) Where he lacked physical ability, he made up with brains and calm demeanor. But if he got a Marcus Mariota/Andrew Luck type (which I think we have in Barnett) then its Game. Set. Match.

Other positions have to come first though. They make or break our style, even if it is somewhat evolving.
