Antonio Smith commits

[Edward20]

It's sad you have to make **** up to trash the staff.

LSU badly wanted Williams. Yes they had other DBs but they only return 2 CBs on their entire roster. Also, Ward wasnt even a take for them until NSD, when they missed on Williams. A&M and Oregon really wanted him too, so let's hear your excuses there.

And Penn St wanted both Hunte and Ellies. They needed both, it was never one or the other.

You still havent explained how you dont trust this staff's OL evals because of Zion Nelson. It's a completely different staff on offense. What's your explanation there?

Holy ****. You completely and utterly missed the point about Zion Nelson for the 3rd time, that's the explanation

Hunte had been trending our way for longer than you think. Some staffs are aware of their surroundings and if they sense a downturn they take another guy as opposed to being left holding their ****s. The guy they took was from Germany and they offered in January. He committed the same day Hunte did. You really think they took that guy over Hunte? The other DT commit around that time isn't the same type of player as Hunte. That guy is built more like Jalar Holley. Willams visited LSU on the final OV weekend and LSU didn't get a commit from a DB on the weekend before. Jay Ward committed to them on signing day. Before that they hadn't had another DB commit since June of '18

Some people just read Rivals or 247 and think their talent evaluators Fin. I trust what our coaching staff looks at especially when their the ones watching hours upon hours of film, and not just highlights off a kids ha d selected film. I also trust said coaches to know what type of scheme they’re wanting to run versus an armchair OC. Have we hit on OL in the past few years? That remains to be seen. But lumping all coaches into a collective saying that unless a kid has 25 offers and all from P5 schools that a coaching staff doesn’t know what they’re doing speaks of a star gazer and not an evaluator of talent.

Guys like Jawan Taylor has offers from everyone. This dudes best offer was Cincinnati.

The other kid we offered his best offer was UAB and Air Force.

Time will tell.

But Taylor was still a 3 star.

Only a simple minded moron would try to place blame for the '19 class ranking on this current staff, which btw wasn't even finalized until the end of Jan.

 

[Trafficante]

Holy ****. You completely and utterly missed the point about Zion Nelson for the 3rd time, that's the explanation

Besides looking at star rankings on recruiting websites, what else are your qualifications regarding how to evaluate/assess talent?

 

[Gatorhater]

It’s pretty much where football is going , more athletic and maybe not quite as big as they once were.

But he also has a nasty streak, I like his physicality. He’s definitely not just a finesse blocker.

That nasty thing made me think he could switch to DT if need be.

Wrong. He has offers from Auburn and Nebraska as well. Keep taking those L’s.

And.....

Last time I checked Kentucky isn’t a 5x champ.

Why is it so difficult to go out and land a top 250 OL? OL has been a week spot here for 15 years. Recruiting and development has been atrocious. We need to start recruiting stud OL if we ever want to get back to the top

Because there arent many near us. If you dont see how that is a problem then I cant help you. Theres only like 1 top 250 Olineman per class in south florida.

 

[Canefam]

^^^ Its like trying to teach the blind to see - I totally agree with you.^^^

No he didn't.

 

[rsa coral gables]

I’m really starting to like this kid. He’s commenting on guys pics that are committed to us saying they’re now his brothers and commented on a pic of Diaz saying that’s his family now. Seems to be all In and thankful of the opportunity.

that he likes everyone is the criterion for being a solid eval and good recruit?

 

[MIA42178]

Seems like Kentucky was pushing for him!

Good sign considering UK’s offensive line has been very good for about seven years while ours has been trash

 

[Ver]

But Taylor was still a 3 star.

And committed here at one time

I meant as a person lol

[BettyJean]

I can promise you that he is committed to The U. The U is and will always be his first choice

 

[BettyJean]

Most of the top guys in that school are committed to the Gators. Thats why I think he'll go there if he's offered

Uh, Cleveland Reed? Lorenzo Lingard?

I can promise you he won’t go to the Gators he is a honorable young man of his word and I know without a shadow of a doubt he will stay committed.

 

[SayWhat]

I swear, you people will talk up anyone who gives us a look or verbal.

Fact, this recruit isn't that highly regarded at this moment and he's on a team plenty of coaches see.

Why that is, I don't know. I do know that the team right up the street in UF didn't offer for whatever reason and they have to know him better than any other.

I'll hope for the best here while you all sing his praises. Bet this though, if he doesn't end up in this class you'll all downplay the **** out of it and your praises will be like they never happened.

Let it play out, but this is kind of a head scratcher at this point. Congrats to the young man, do your thing, and make believers out of the doubters.

Didn’t think it was possibly but you’re looking worse.
