re: Arkansas Football 2020 Recruiting Thread *GR-TR DT Xavier Kelly Commits*

until I see it, I wont believe it. We have been beyond atrocious on the O line in this league.

Just saw them on 247. Someone definitely needs to talk to the kid because he seems to be in a dark place right now.

Apparently he posted some not-so-subtle things on his Instragram basically saying he was planning to take his life.

247 Final Rankings for Arkansas Targets

All our top commits/signees dropped (Slusher, D.Turner, Stewart) but our former commits (Savion, Frazier) have all jumped in the rankings as it looks like they will go elsewhere.

Offensive line, watch this.
-Coach, you don't have any pads on.
-Now, you just play ball, Olson.
Quarterback's still standing.
Big on big.
We can run an offense.
We can save a young man's life.
Come on, now. Power l. Big on big.
We got a huge problem
on the O-line, coach.
l don't think it's because
the defensive line is so spectacular.
No. No.
Men. Power l. You know l'm a fan
of it, that's why l brought it here.
l have learned in the last two weeks
that it is not working.
So as of right now, the Power l
goes in the trash...
...along with every flea-flicker,
double reverse...
...and every other trick play
that you may have in your playbook.
Get rid of it.
Men, it is time to simplify. Ball.
So put our heads together here.
What is the simplest offense...
...that you have ever run
and actually won a football game?
Any idea's a good idea. No right or wrong
in here today, men, let's talk it out.
Well, there's always the Veer.
The Veer. That's interesting.
Talk that out, Red.
Well, the Veer's an option offense.
Spreads things out.
Takes the focus off any one man.
lt's designed for teams that don't
have a strong offensive line.
Now, that is us in a nutshell.
Well, who runs it that we can talk to?
Bill Yeoman came up with it
at Houston...
...but other than West Virginia,
no one really runs it outside of Texas.

Movement on the Frazier front. We did an in home today with Briles, cooper, and stepp. Went well. Expect a decision within the next 3 days. Auburn 247 guys say his recruitment has taken a turn since the visit here. He is really close with our commits, and players. Said he is really close to their staff (lol he means only chud). Now it is a 2 horse race. We got the last visit, and we may pull an upset. Auburn 247 still thinks auburn though. Danny still is iffy on the kid, but says we did make some headway.

I figure he picks Auburn because they are why he got a ranking bump.

and this is what pisses me off with these recruiting sites. If your gonna bump somebody based off the schools looking at them bump them when they get an offer not when they commit. It’s like the recruiting sites are purposefully pushing for certain schools to get the good players because high school kids love seeing those star ratings. Had a kid in class today show me a Snapchat story of a kid who got his 3rd star and the kid is posting about it. That shite matters to teenagers

Baylor just offered a 2020 QB
