Why does he only have 11 offers? He’s very highly rated.

This is his 3rd school. This kid will probably flip a few more times before NSD

A, he won’t qualify so it won't matter anyway.

B, this is his third school since March. He’ll probably flip a few more times.

Apparently grades may be an issue is why only 11 offers. Very talented though, so I would be surprised if whoever lands him doesn't find a way to get him in.

Diwun is more likely to get his GED and enroll in JUCO in December than be at an SEC school next fall. He's a sick athlete though. If anyone can get him on campus, he will be dynamite for a season.

Mullen will Fulmer him in, I'm sure of it. They stayed away from some nonqual candidates in the 18 cycle, so I don't think they'd chase Black unless they really thought they could get it done.

I asked a legitimate question. He has 11 offers as a Top 50 prospect compared to Lewis Cine who ranks similarly and has 36 offers. That says something is concerning or worrisome for the prospect. I would imagine the State fans have good insight on the player.

He's a solid player but has academic issues, but we'll make sure he qualifies. There, happy?

There’s some rumors going around that UF is trying to get him to IMG to help him get eligible. Phenomenal athlete, hope he can get in.

That was an option seems they decided to stay in Mississippi, Florida will do all It can to get him eligible, coming to a different state with a higher academic standard in high school didn’t end up being the best route. 50/50 shot right now if he gets to work.

Still baffles my mind how insanely good athletes can end up being academic casualties. Everyone knows these kids are D1 athletes in 9th grade and they still end up not getting the help they need until the final year of school when it becomes clear the kid has qualifying issues. You know these high schools are doing everything they can to keep these kids passing so they can play.
