Moses is definition of looks like Tarzan plays like Jane.
Beastly athlete with no football instincts. Will be a good player based on that alone, but not a great one. Reuben, McClain, and several other Tide MLB's are far better "football players".

Still wish we got him for sure, like I said, will be a pretty good player, especially surrounding by the rest of your absurd talent.

There were lots of RB posters, including myself, who said what I posted a minute ago.
He's a good player, but incredibly overrated when he was in the top 5.
He's a mid-tier 4* LB because of ridiculous measurables. He is an average "football player".

Ours are Deculus, Stevens, and I think Kary Vincent will be the freakiest athlete per lb.
Dude is lightning fast and has serious vert. 40+ inch vert, sub 10.6 100m, and just looks so explosive in pads.

I would say freakish, 6'3" 210 WR ,Koilan Jackson. He is the son of All-Pro
Keith Jackson. Keith has done a great job coaching this kid up and he is away head
of most freshman in skill and knowledge. He will be on the field early.

It's crazy how much better TN HS FB has gotten and Quarles really deserves a TON of credit. He influenced so many HS coaches - pretty much everyone and that has paid dividends the last few years with no end in sight.
Lotta folks on here are convinced TN HS FB is still prospect poor but the last few years have shown otherwise. The difference is not just that we've had a population boom which helps but that we've finally started to produce skills players whereas we've always produced some of the best DL and OL those guys are often overlooked while skills guys get the attention and glory. But just look at Josh Malone who may well be the best WR in the draft despite coming out early.
Thanks to Quarels and the pop. boom I don't think this is a fluke. Hell even KnoxVegas/E. TN is churning blue chippers out thanks to the hard work Quarels put in educating TN HS coaches, running tons of clinics, and just really elevating TN HS football.

Lynn Bowden is a hell of an athlete. So pissed he got snaked from me in the RMD. Had my eye on him for a few rounds and waited too long.

Wish I had seen a good review on him before the RMD... I passed on him a couple of times because I couldn't find enough info. His measurables and video looked pretty good... Also, Arky seems to have a lot of big WRs, so wasn't sure he'd crack the depth chart.

There's still a lack of volume there, but the quality of the top seems to have risen... not sure if that's what you're saying or if you're indicating that the volume is on the rise too?

And we're starting to produce more than our fair share of blue chippers. BUT the point is we're growing and Hurd's class had a ridiculous number of TN croots and many have been big time contributors (disproportionately so). Obviosuly we don't have the population to surpass GA/FLA or even Tejas. It will take time but things are on the upswing.
Also, we all but invented national recruiting in the SEC and let's be honest anything North of ATL we treat as home (esp higher up), same for AL and SC. Due to out location we are closer to parts of GA, SC, VA, NC, VA, and OH among others. Crootin' closer to home (aside from OL/DL) is still new but TN HS FB is finally churning players out.
Work in progress as I said but we had a ridiculous number in Hurd's class and let's be honest tons of TN players attend HS in GA but even so GA is close to TN for the guys we croot - above mentioned too. And don't fprget guys like Dooley refused to croot TN and even told at least one player from Memphis he disliked/wouldn't croot it when he took the job.
Just sayin. We're slowly but surely getting the status AND the quantity. Won't happen overnight.

K'lavon chaisson.
Also, I've seen dylan moses get his arse handed to him in numerous games while he played hs ball in baton rouge. He's not superman...don't build him up to be a superhero because you will only be let down. He's a good player though.

Funny thing is, he may not even start. LSU has so much talent at safety right now. It's a real problem.
having too much talent anywhere is never a problem. Bama seems to be doing fine with it

Agree with you 100% -- GQ is a legend. Him, along with the mid state population exploding and groups like NPA have really helped out. Guys like Buck Fitzgerald have really helped these top guys in state get more recognition too

Doesnt really mean anything.
Did Bama recruit Tyrann Mathieu? Did they recruit Jacob Hester? Did they recruit Star Jackson?

Honestly, and sadly, I can't think of one player in Auburn's 2017 recruiting class that fits this bill. We got some solid players, but nobody that is a potential game changer.
