Olineman always need a couple years to develop unless you're a superstar. Bring his big *** in amd coach him up

 

[Arel305]

If I remember correctly he did have some interest in us. Worth a look from Barry.

I would laugh if this kid is a Chuckie Doll Candidate

 

[CANE1775]

Auburn's line play was terrible and he still couldn't get any serious PT. PASS

 

[caneallday21]

I'm not saying it as an excuse because idk anything about their coach but what if Auburn people think the oline coach is trash and moved him out of position like Searles did Donaldson? Maybe he isn't good, maybe he needs a good coach I can't say but what I can say is a 6'6 330 something pound former 5* lineman is good enough to take a shot at

Under Armour paid a big bag to get him there too.

Two first names...no

We should not be giddy with stars, and become star whores.......these players have to be evaluated for need, talent, and whether they fit into the U way of doing things.
Miami will not grab, -nor should we-, every 4 and 5 star in the portal.
Manny will make **** sure that everyone has to play a part in TNM, and we should not be resurrecting fix it, and rehabbed players to the team because of dubious ratings, and failed missions on their first choice schools.
We should NOT become Reject U.

He's a 5* because he's got talent, size, and athleticism, and we most definitely have the need. If the kid's willing to work, he's absolutely a take.

How does this portal thing work with regards to kids leaving SEC schools?

Does UM have to assume his salary?

 

[deleted18678]

Is he even enrolled in classes? I thought he left to address mental health issues

Nope. Backup LG who started at RT too. That whole O-line they have are RS SRs.

 

[Canes2082]

My Auburn buddy said this. He's always spot on with me in regards to all things in college football...

No. The player keeps the remuneration already received!

 

[bacane]

Oh, but he's a 5-star. lol

 

[The Franchise]

Lazy equals hard pass. You can’t fix lazy, and that’s often the problem with the star system when attempting to rate gigantic kids like this who just get by on size in HS.

 

[chevyboy79]

We are in no position to turn away 5* OL. **** I'll take a highly productive 3* we need help badly!

U guys are so mesmorized with these stars it ain't even funny...this 5-star clearly couldn't cut it at Auburn and bcs he's a FORMER 5-star recruit we can't afford to turn him away ...I'm not saying we shouldn't see what's up with him but not bcs he was a FORMER 5-star recruit

 

[iLoveTDs]

Is he any good?

Some of you guys see a player in the portal and immediately just want him, independent of whether he is actually good/has a viable reason to take his talents to the portal.

It’s a position of need - so sometimes you gotta roll the dice on guys who were former 5 stars.

Gerald Willis did **** at Florida, but became a stud here.

 

[mbuendia]

Reggie Youngblood was a 5 Star too.

How did that turn out?
