You're entitled to your opinion and I'm entitled to tell you your opinion is fricking stupid.

Losing Finch stinks. However, Franklin is the guy that Kenny King kept begging Roach to take months ago. Roach was only "so-so" on him then. He's had a big senior year (still raw as a cob and just scratching the surface of his potential). Someone I trust mentioned that Todd Bates (OU DL coach) is very high on him as well.

Speaking of Bates, I wish we would bring him home at some point.

Those "in the know" and apparently our staff consider Finch a big loss. They're very high on Franklin's upside, though.

I thought Finch was. I’ve forgotten his film, why do you not like him ?

Are we in the running for any big DT-types this go around? Looks like all DL commits so far are 260 lb or under.

IDK maybe i just like bigger d lineman but I think its over for us with those type of players because we run a lot of stunts and drop d lineman in coverage and things like that now.

JJ Finch highlights trash anyway


I actually watched his tape yesterday and thought the same thing. I didn’t see much strength or quickness. The Barnett kid looked good to me, however. If it’s truly a grade thing, then what can you do.

Illinois is confident they are getting Javari Barnett and Owen Cabell.

They are probably getting Barnett.

Haven't seen any concern with losing Cabell.

We should not have to be begged by Kenny king to offer that kid. That’s a grown arse man right there. I’ve seen him play in person this year several times. He’s the real deal

Hopefully it works out as well as it did the last time we beat out OU for an unheralded late bloomer.

Damn, I wish I coulda gotten that 6-foot-nothing to 6'6'' growth spurt my senior year of high school. I'd be retired from the NFL living next to Saban in Jupiter, FL right now.
