Emory and Judd committed before their senior years. Here are their junior stats:

Emory - 63% completion, 2168 passing yards, 16 TD-3 INT, 64 rushing yards, 4 TD (5-5 record)
Judd - 56% completion, 1776 passing yards, 15 TD-13 INT, 60 rushing yards, 2 TD (6-5 record)

If Miami is going to take kids with this level of production, they better have the best tape of all time and just be surrounded by a low level of talent (not common)

Compare that to Nickel and Coleman:

Nickel - 66% completion, 3914 passing yards, 39 TD-5 INT, 181 rushing yards, 6 TD (Won State Championship)
Coleman - 73% completion, 3412 passing yards, 28 TD-4 INT, 455 rushing yards, 4 TD (Lost State Championship)

It's getting better as we get better, but man I just don't see how EW and JA qualified even in our down years.
This is JMO as everyone hates on Dawson….

Judd committed 6-8 weeks after Dawson got the job. He was offered like 2-3 weeks after he got the job. He has similarities to Emory from a body type (& sadly production) standpoint. I’d imagine Judd was known to the staff prior to Dawson’s hire.

Frank Ponce’s fingerprints are all over Judd + Emory. They are App State level quarterbacks. Ponce has only coached at the p4 during his time with Miami and a stint with Louisville (and the Louisville HC was from App State lol).

Dawson’s #1 thing is accuracy. His claims to fame as an evaluator/recruiter are Stetson Bennett and Mac Jones. Those guys are much more aligned with Nickel + Coleman than Judd is.

For whatever it's worth, people at Tulane who still had contact with him think there's a good chance it's Miami. They obviously don't know for sure, or whatever, I'm just breaking their trust and passing this information along.

Hilarious Jon Summrall could’ve went out and got him at Florida and they decided on Aaron Philo lmao
 
Bro hand him the **** checkbook and three pens to keep writing zeros until the ink runs out. **** Tennessee.
My point is, outside of straight cash, they don’t have an angle here.

Not only do we have the money, but we also have the trajectory of the program to sell, along with a strong running game and talented WRs.
