Cook & Surtain Jr are both overrated as f*ck...
Blades, Asante Jr & Mark Pope should all be in the top 5.
Also, the DB trio from the Creek are underrated.

And, shout out to Tutu Atwell for making the list, lol.

I want to know what your take is on a few of these guys :

James Head DE Southridge
Davoan Hawkins DE Chaminade
Trenell Troutman. DB Aquinas
Nik Bonitto DE Aquinas
Andrew Chattfield DE. American Heritage
Kevin Austin WR. North Broward Prep
Dominic Watt. WR McArthur
Kenny Bastida LB Deerfield

I see these guys are up toward the top of Bluesteins list. I know nothing about most of them outside of Head and Troutman who's names I'm familiar with but not much than that. Are you familiar with any of them in terms of what type of prospects you think they are?

Also are we in the picture for Donovan Georges and/or Billy Joseph?

Dominick Watt is a player..a big wr..built well plays both sides of the ball at a high level. Kid will be 210-215 in college..we should recruit him at wr.

Chatfield plays de at Heritage ..may have ability at lb..but has a crazy first step and is impressive in the games I watched last year where he and Brian Burns wrecked havoc. I think Chatfield could be a 6'3-240 pd kid by next season

Kevin Austin is legit, I like his route running ability, a great size WR & he's a pretty good two way player, but there's other WR's I would take ahead of him.

Dominick Watt is a beast imo... Plays both WR & DB, Miami I think has recruited him as a Safety, but he pretty much camped all Summeer at WR at both Paradise & at FAU's camp he drilled as a WR. He's recently said that Kentucky is his lead, but is being recruited by the likes of USF, Louisville & others. I really like his physicality at WR, at Paradise he went one on one with Akeem Dent & Dent was pressing him heavy and he still beat'em deep and made a great acrobatic catch on the Go routes. I really like him, he visited Miami all the way back during Junior day earlier this year, but I don't think the staff has offered him yet.

Troutman is injured right now, but he's a great DB. Can play both outside & inside nickel, as well as Safety. He absolutely balled out last year at Northwestern, I wish he would've stayed with the Bulls, but he's transferred 4 years in a row now. He's excellent in coverage, has great awareness getting to the ball, good hips, good eye discipline, is a ballhawk with good speed, rarely did I ever see him miss assignment or blown coverage & can absolutely hit.
I think he said Louisville is his lead right now, but he also said he likes Miami as well.

Kenny Bastida is solid Mike, not very fast or quick, but a **** good tackler, doesn't look very athletic while running, but always gets to the ball & is very instinctual. Idk if we're recruiting him or not.

Georges said UGA is his top school, but he also said he like Miami a lot & "things can change.." So, I guess if we go after him hard enough we can get him.

From what I've read, Joseph is still being recruited by Miami, I think they want him back, but Idk if he'll recommit. I think he's going to USF, but we still have a shot.

Chattfield, Bonitto & James Head Jr are all beasts.

Thanks for the analysis guys. It is much appreciated. Troutman sounds like he's for real. Is there enough room for him and you think he is a take considering all the other studs we're in on? With Watt and Joseph you said they are being recruited by the likes of USF, Louisville, UCF, Kentucky and so on. Do you think they are UM caliber?

It would seem that the staff, at least for now is lukewarm on both Joseph and Georges for whatever reason. What are the names so far in South Florida in terms of LB and DL that the staff is hard after?
 
For once I see a list with Chatfield where needs to be. That kid is a nightmare on the edge. No way in **** is Goetz(a **** good S) better than Al Jr., Ivey, and Macho Man. And I'll say it again Campbell is the best DB on the AHS roster so #2 should drop down and #16 should rise up.

Larry Ballstain is nice fella but clueless.

Anyone can tell ya Dalvin Cook and Duke Johnson are really good.

His 2010 Dade "pre spring" list included the following peaches:

#10 Josh "Who" Reese
#27 Allen "Pro Bowler" Hurns

Not to be outdone by his Dade 2011 "pre spring" list including:

#5 Jaron "What" Seymore
#24 Devonta "Pro Bowler" Freeman

Josh Jobe is the best player in Dade County THIS YEAR let alone next year.

About time for Blu to hang em up, he had a great run.

Blu is still the goods just hasnt been the same since he got really sick. (cancer I think..) But I agree that this is probably his worst list in awhile. This is a clear indicator that he hasnt really evaulated the 2018 kids just yet. Al Blades Jr and Josh Jobe are top 75 kids NATIONALLY and they dont even crack the top 10 on a local list? Smh.

Its like that Little Brother verse says, "How a act go out town, blow up and go global, come back home and still be called local."
