Missed KN update this afternoon that 4* DE Caleb Tannor will take an OV. Not sure if he's a take or not
If u can't flip Quay Walker then take Tannor imo

Guess we aren’t going to push for Tank. Much rather have him than wasting a space with Alaimo.
Where is the disconnect between the pros and the message board experts on Joiner? He’s rated really really high but nobody seems to like him

Dude is a freak athlete. He stands out at camps. The concern many have is whether he's physical enough to be RB in SEC. Shivers is a more physical back than he is. No one's denying he's got talent just concerned style won't translate to next level. He's almost 6'4" as well which is super tall for a running back. Honestly think he would be better weapon as a WR in the short passing game. Match him up against safeties and linebackers
Fwiw if he does learn to run behind his pads more effectively and becomes a more physical back then he will be a stud. But it's usually not simple for a back to go from finesse to power so we will see. I hope us doubters look dumb in a few years

I have no problem with it. With his abilities, I’d rather we get to try and make him good, not have to deal with him if someone else does. Only issue I have is we’ve gotten a ton of RB’s that frankly really only 2 or so willgwt any meaningful snaps

What are the odds that we're taking Joiner as the rare RB/TE. If it is an option at TE does that mean no Alaimo? At this point with spots limited I'm not sure I want Alaimo.. I have to think Fuqua is pretty much guaranteed to have to take a grey shirt if we take Joiner and Alaimo, right?

You heard it here first (or second): Joiner will be a bust. Don't care how "athletic" he is. Gus ain't got time for projects -- and Joiner will be. Gus needs production.

He might be a bust but we don’t exactly need him to come in and contribute right away. We have depth

Pass on joiner take smoke instead

I don't see the knock on Joiner. He's a big athlete. Sign him and try him at RB, TE, or WR. If it doesn't work out, he can play H-Back and be a 6th blocker like Cox.

He doesn't want to block though.

KN says Joiner wants to be at AU he knows that for a fact. Says he's bonded with some other AU commits. Question is will AU take him. KN thinks they will but has no solid info yet

KN says Joiner is first recruit to arrive at complex today. His OV will wrap up by noon CT

I know most of the talk is around Joiner but I am very interested to see what comes out on Dylan Wonnum. With Wiltfong CBing Gouraige to CLEM (FWIW I don't think that one is over yet), Barnes looking more likely to UNC & FSU making a move on Goss, would love to swoop in & steal Wonnum away. I am higher on those other guys but beggars can't be choosers at this point

Alaimo's little bro is with him. He's a 2020 QB who has a chance to be very highly recruited

Marcello just CB'd Joiner to AU. I think it's a done deal
