Surely we would take Cooper over Watts.
6'4-6'5 260-275 vs. 6'1/6'2 230-255.
I guess it would depend on what position you are going to play them but that has been the knock against Cooper from day 1. As fans we have the kid playing all over the field. LB isn't going to happen, that is kind of short for a DE, and how much weight can you put on him and let him play DT while still keeping his athleticism. Then you have the question of is he better than the other DT we can get. I think the kids best shot is at FB and we are getting players for that position to walk on.
I will add that most folks love for Cooper has nothing to do with what they have seen him do on the field and more to do with him being ranked a 4* on 247. If he came in at say 3* with a ranking of 85 people would be saying well he is a good backup option if some of our top targets go elsewhere.

Does anyone have a 247 account? Can y'all let us know what they are saying about Solomon Thomas on the Arkansas page?

Nothing new.....originally their "sources" said him and his sister wouldn't go to the same school but now they are hearing that isn't as big of an issue as it was originally thought to be and we are in the running for him. In the end Stanford may be the team to beat instead of Texas like many thought.

you don't let an in state 4 star go elsewhere because you aren't sure where you play him.
just because someone is a 4* doesn't seem to mean much to this staff. see: Kaleb Blanchard (lulz they seem to have removed one of his stars since he signed)
but i do agree that not being sure where to play a prospect should never be a reason to let a solid player get away.

Would I have to put in my credit card? I'm too afraid that I might like it and keep it once it is about to expire. I think I'll wait until one of my buddies gets an account and just mooch off of them like I do with Rivals and Scout.

Yes, but 2beez will never be able to sign another player from LA after pulling his offer.
Oh and Petrino fricked up by not signing Sam Harvill.

Pondwater Jack's gout started acting up which he says normally coincides with a big commit.
I have now upgraded Kevin Shorter to an Arkansas lock.
