i agree with all of that and i appreciate the answer. i know i give richt shite but i figured they ahd to think he was worth a shite or something. i will give him this, he had a stretch where he was playing pretty good football. it may have been against horrid defenses but he did it nonetheless

Delando Crooks currently on campus, could he be the next public commit?


6'4 255-265, depending on where you look.
A 4* on Scout, #24 OT
A 3* on 247, #42 OT, #43 in GA
A 3* on Rivals.

Isn't that a little small for an OT?

I'm no expert by any means

Light in the britches, but it's all about their frame. Xzavier Ward was 255 his senior year but we have him up 275-280 now. Some guys have the body type to add the necessary weight, others don't.

Exactly. I would rather take a kid that is 255 with a decent frame that a kid that is 300+ in HS. If they are that big chances are they are lazy. Help them put on the weight the right way and to bust heads.

I agree with that, OL are just so tricky because it cuts the other way too. You have to make sure you're getting a kid who has a frame capable of adding weight. Some kids just can't gain and others end up with injuries from carrying too much on their frame. On the other hand, is the kid who weighs 320 motivated enough to redistribute his weight? Can he keep his power trimming weight?

I'm a lot drunk and on my way back from the Aiken Steeplechase, but the O'Neal pick up is HUGE. Athletically, O'Neal is not far behind Foster, but lacks some the footwork and technique, which Grantham and Coach O will fix QUICK. O'Neal reminds me a lot of Amarlo Herrera, which is very good for the Dawgs$

How good is he? Couple of my recruiting friends told me he's the shite, while others told me he is overrated.

Ideal size, good speed, elite ball skills. Top DB in state for 2014. Might not be a 5 star but 4 star isn't overrated,

Added Terry and O'Neal to the commits list and cleaned up the offers list removing those kids who committed elsewhere (except Foster, who we're still actively recruiting, and Jayron Kearse, who we offered after he committed to Miami and we're still recruiting); I'll add those kids who received offer over the past couple of weeks later on this week.

O'neal doesn't seem that explosive or fast but seems like a great ILB regardless.

What is the story on Bowden? Are we going to wait and see what happens with RF before offering him?

He tore his knee up his sophomore tear I believe, so we're in wait and see mode a little. We got O'Neal and feel good about Carter at ILB, leaving room always open for RF. Plus, there's the Boulware kid, but he's a heavy Clemson lean appatently

Leave. You clearly don't know the rules.
