My point was that people seem convinced that KR12 is going to be great. And for the record I hope he is. I want him to be successful.

But to suggest you know something based on scrimmages and almost zero in-game reps makes me chuckle. That's all.

No argument. I didn't know Tua or Young would be stars without a doubt either. However, I had the same feeling about Russell as those two when each only had cleanup duty appearances.

Dude was a 3* committed to SMU and his senior year in highschool everything changed. These posts making him out to be this generational talent based on the minimal snaps he's taken in live action and spring scrimmages are wild.

I want him to do well. I want BAMA to win, but your post just seems like wishcasting. But don't worry. You're not alone.


Oh no, he was a 3 star before his senior year!

What a retarded take. You should feel bad.

Was he not the top recruit in his HS class? Did he win the TX state championship? Are you really dumb?

He was a 3* until may(ish) 2024 when he was rated 4*. Got the 5* in July 2024 after hours performance in the camp. Not arguing... Just adding dates.
