Got my eye on Darnell Washington. I want Enos to flex the Williams to Mallory/Jordan combo on the field this season.
Come on, Darnell. There is only one "TE-U" and that is only found at Miami. All them others saying they are Tight End U are just pretending. LSU and UGA recruiting told Washington they were TE-U... lol Get... the f@#$... out!

Kinda hurt himself but good for him for being loyal to a school that doesn’t make him look good.

Redding tests elite & balls out at the OPENING. Then drops 30 spots because he commits to UM. Sounds legit.
He's not a natural pass catcher. Very raw but he was a tad overrated by Rivals originally.

Our favorite Italian tight end will be able to step in and compete from day one cause he has the ability to block. Might need refining in his receiving skills but I think he’ll be a good one for us. He’s been extremely quiet but he’s about as loyal as you could ever imagine a blue chip prospect being. He’s stayed at his school this entire time even tho they don’t throw the ball and make him look good. Most would have transferred. Gotta love it
they drop all our commits except the two kids beleived to be gay. thats probably PC culture that saved their rankings

Horsesh*t. He's one of the 20-30 best WR's in the nation, there's a bunch of kids they have ranked ahead of him who aren't half as skilled nor have the traits he does.
His performance at The Opening was more than enough to get him a bump in the ratings, both services were high on him when he was uncommitted, as soon as he announces to Miami & not FSU they immediately start dropping him even after he was one of the best on the camp circuit.
It's politics to drive certain teams class rankings up/down based on who the scouting directors & analysts decide should be highly ranked.
You wanna know who's overrated AF, Arian Smith. Kid was a RB at Mulberry, barely ever played WR, but as soon as he transferred to a powerhouse in Lakeland & started getting attention from UGA, Bama, FSU, UF etc, all the sudden he gets high 4-star 96 rating & is a top 15-20 WR?? Mind you, the kid hasn't played a snap at Lakeland yet, he just transferred there back in the Spring & has been a RB/KR his first 3 years in High School, what legitimate reason is ranked ahead of Redding?
Malachi Wideman is another one severely overrated. I'm not arguing that Redding is top 5 or top 10, I'm simply saying if you actually examine some of the kids ranked ahead of him, there's literally not a single rational explanation for why they are other than who they're committed to or being recruited by.
And again, there hasn't been a camp in a whole month so what exactly has taken place since June/July that would have kids raised or dropped? This sh*t is completely arbitrary.
Strictly talking Rivals rankings bro. You’re response appears to be based off of his composite ranking.
Rivals had him as the 30th beat prospect in the country and he dropped to a Top70 kid(Which is around where he should be). He’s a solid top 150 prospect with sky high potential. If you watch him run routes and catch the ball...I’m sure we can agree the kid is raw. His athleticism is ridiculous tho. Rivals also has him as a Top10 receiver which I can agree with. 247 and ESPN are the ones a lil lower on him with ESPN being the primary reason he dropped after committing to us. 247 has actually bumped him since he’s committed to us.
After following recruiting for the past two seasons I’m learning that these rankings are trash anyway. Kids are overrated/underrated every cycle by guys who’s never played a down a football in their life.

How does Redding drop? That shyt is crazy I dont even believe it, now I get why people say its a UM thing even Chaney to....................im looking at the list like bruh yall making me look bad
I don't agree. He should have transferred for his game to grow. For us(Miami) it's a great thing especially if the early evaluations was on point and he turns out to be a top TE. I wouldn't be surprised if he falls to a 2*. Not being on the camp scene this off season plus another season in that offense no one can be mad at his slide in the rankings. I just hope his skills when he gets here are Miami level.
Yeah you can’t drop Redding because he’s “raw” yet increase Arian Smith who is extremely raw. I believe we, along with others, were recruiting him as a DB.

Yeah but then you couldn't go on a bag tour of official visits before picking Miami anyway and then pissing on the other schools' hats on signing day.

I mean I would def take the bags and run. But these kids plan that and I think temptation is too much for them to overcome cause they not only getting bags your families moving your mom n dad got bangin jobs. Then u got big ego and the "cool guy" hs coaches and handlers telling them take the money and run or use this school.

When what you're doing is the college sports version of fake news media you can be faulted for not attending a non-existent camp....and so many rankings are fake anyway.
Remind me of back in the '80's when the late recruiting guru the late Max Emfinger talked to a friend of a friend and told him he was scheduled to speak on a local radio station somewhere and said he had to switch his rankings around to be more interesting to that station's audience.
By the way: what is a "hot take"? I've been accused of doing hot takes.
I have no idea abt his family but all that costs $ perhaps he has wanted to be a cane and his parents are confident in his scholarship offer

I read somewhere recently that Mammarelli did not participate on the camp/7x7 circuit because he is recovering from a shoulder injury. That would negatively impact his rating and rank. From all reports, the Canes should be happy about keeping him under the radar.
