I don’t know. Jeff Thomas didn’t have much off anything better than Tutu. He wasn’t faster. Didn’t run better routes. Wasn’t better after the catch. Didn’t have better footwork. I just don’t know bout that. But I’ll give you that. My thing is… if I’m going for a WRs out of state… I need one who can truly play on the boundaries. Like a Isaiah Horton. A 6’2 200 or better type of kid with speed. We have Brashard Smiths, X. Restrops, and Mike Harleys all over SFL is my point. I’m not say this kid Coleman won’t be beast, I do hope he balls out, but reality is… we know where he’s gonna line up and we can easily find those around here.

I’ll agree to disagree on JT4 vs TuTu. But as far as Coleman is concerned, he can play the outside with zero issues. His footwork is great, he creates separation with his routes effortlessly, he’s a great 50-50 ball guy even under 6’. I think you’re selling Coleman short by a lot here. There’s no one in this class in SFL like him to me. Next year for sure but he’s be WR1 in FL this year if he was in the class.

Pure talent? I’ll take JT4 over Tutu all day. JT problem wasn’t talent, just couldn’t keep his head on straight. Coleman FWIW doesn’t have any of those types of character concerns that JT did. I’ll take him over Mike Jack or Mortimer all day long

**** Jeff Thomas and TuTu Atwell.

We need the Andre Johnsons (South Florida) and Reggie Waynes (Louisiana) of the world.

Those first two won't get you anywhere meaningful.

Maybe you’re right. We’ll see. I’m sure we’ll revisit this convo sometime in the future no matter where he goes.

He was a heavy FSU lean till this point, so that at least means the distance wasn’t gonna be an issue.

USC was one of his top schools as well, depending on where Riley & company have him slotted on their board they may make a push for him, but what’s turning things upside is most of the Cali kids are flocking to back USC now, so they may actually end up flipping Oregon commit Tetairoa McMillan lol

He’s not as fast as JT4, but has better hands & is more polished route runner, terrific at creating separation at the top of his routes with good stems.

But East STL MO/IL produces a sh*t ton of talent every year from schools like ESTL, DeSmet, Trinity Catholic, Lutheran North, Chaminade, Cardinal Ritter etc, that’s a recruiting pool we need to crack into.

East St.Louis,IL just to clarify. Trinity Catholic doesn’t exist anymore. Closed like a year after Mookie left. Luther Burden went to Cardinal Ritter and transferred to East Louis this season. Jameson Williams went to Ritter as well. Hassan Haskins went to Eureka. Desmet’s head coach(formally Lutheran North’s head coach) is an associate. It’s really way more schools than what you even mentioned especially CBC, Kirkwood and the Surburban North schools like McCluer North, and Hazelwood East.

St.Louis youth football has grown in intensity a ton since I played 20+ years ago now and the caliber of top high school prospects are showing that. Bunch of St.Louis youth teams are down in Florida right now playing in championship tourneys. Some of which those above named guys played through.
 
Cristobal like a fox in the hen house with being able to recruit the south east. I was saying it before he got hired that he will have us in the top 5 recruiting and people thought i was joking or being hyperbolic. And also the players will commit early. We wont be left at the alter

That should not be a problem,just in this class he has 5* OT Banks and C.Williams who is visiting next weekend,both Texas kids committed to him at Oregon.

Banks is visiting next weekend for real??

If Mario is trying to bring his Oregon recruits with him he's bad mf'er. He's willing to do what needs to be done to win. IIrc its something Richt wouldn't do and told Eason to stay with UGA. That's career altering **** and Mario isn't ****ing around.

Everyone coming at me… I’m sure you all would take Jeff Thomas over TuTu Atwell as well. I get it. I get it. Y’all get loss in these mid west kids stats. I’ll take a WRs from SFL over any so-called 5 star mid west kid. That’s just me. Y’all complain when they go off to ball somewhere else.

You sound crazy as ****, you know where Jameson Williams is from right(st Louis ) and they’ve been putting out some talented receivers out in recent years. Jameson Williams the most explosive receiver I’ve seen in a while

Mario's recruiting challenge is to be top dawg in South Florida (that doesn't mean getting everyone, lol), and doing a lot better elsewhere.

We've done neither for 15 years. We've over-relied on second tier guys from here and have been poor out of state.

Poor out of state? Lol I’d argue our best players (and the biggest canes) the past few years have been OOS kids

Brevin
DJ
JP15
Rambo
King
Zion Nelson
KJ Osborn
TVD
Keyshawn
Njoku
Herndon

Our overall recruiting out of state has sucked.

Your post does nothing to refute or change my opinion. You're making a totally different point, and the two are not mutually exclusive.
