Decision Could Come Soon For Standout DB
-2015 Rivals 4* DB Kendrell McFadden watched Miami's win over Georgia Tech on TV on Saturday
-"Wanted to go to the game but couldn't make it. At first it started out pretty bad for Miami but then they came through."
-Lists over 50 offers and wanted to announce last Friday but "I had some minor setbacks, so now I don't know when I'll do it," he said. "Right now everything is being held back for various reasons. Right now I'd say in the next two weeks, I should know then when I'll let it go."

-Wears #26 in honor of his favorite player, Sean Taylor
-Of what he likes about Miami: "I like how they like to come up and play man, use the over the top coverages. I've been to the school, toured it, have been there three times, have been to the camp. I love the campus."

Athlete Commit Wants to Play QB At Miami
-Cane commit Trayone Gray was in recruiting section for Miami-GT game
-Said he paid closest attention to Stephen Morris and his reaction to throwing early interception. Also watched how Allen Hurns created seperation
-Arrived early and got to speak to Golden before the game
-On what position he sees himself as at Miami: "I see myself as 50/50 quarterback or receiver at the next level," Gray said. "I prefer to be quarterback, like offense more than defense."
-He says Miami has recruited him as an athlete
-Says his commitment is strong. Miami is his only visit
-Former Cane/Gator/CCHS coach Aubry Hill says: "What position he plays is however UM wants to use him," Hill said. "He's a big kid, runs very fast. One of his best qualities is he's very, very competitive. He's tough enough to even play defense. He can play safety, receiver - if he's coached up pretty good he could even play quarterback."

I didnt know McFadden grew up an FSU fan but gotta admit I still think he picks UM and Gray to me is a wr because I think he's so **** explosive there and I don't want to put a guy at safety who really doesn't want to play defense
 
Kendrell McFadden being an FSU fan is no bueno.

To me it's a 0% chance that Trayone Gray is going to play safety in college..... I hope he just accepts WR b/c he could be a beast and maybe they can draw up a WR pass play w/ him or something so he can get his QB fix in at times. lol

Lol he was watching Hurns for a reason so I think he accepts it now
 
McFadden is a tough read. fsu fan growing up but wears 26 for ST and been to campus 3 times. is this one where a fan of the rival school shuns his childhood favorite for us?

How the fugg does some be a fan of FSU, but say his fav player is ST and that he wears 26?!?!?

Kids these days..

well again, he is related to Bryant from fsu and mcarthur. but, yeah, why isn't his favorite player an fsu player?
 
Would love to have McFadden in this class, but i wouldnt be surprised if he does choose FSU, i cant understand how you honor Sean Taylor who is your favorite player but you're a Nole fan.
 
Maybe because these kids aren't the same die hard fans you find on message boards or at games.

a lot of kids are like that......

i remember the LB Jelani Jenkins that committed to Florida, said his favorite player was Sean Taylor.

A lot of these kids that are playing at different schools say that Sean Taylor was their favorite player.... a lot of ppl were just fans of him but not fans of the school.

I was a big fan of Charles Woodson when he was at Michigan, but I never liked Michigan.
 
Dude these cats are kids, some of them dont even watch college football... Gasp, oh my....


Plus some dont have the experience of interview skills, dont take everything they say and try to rationalize it.
 
He's obviously a kid, and its fine to be fans of other players and not the school, i loved Charles Woodson, im a fan of Johnny Football, Brett Hundley and Teddy B.. But i grew up a canes fan first. Im a fan of Mcfadden, But thats like me saying i grew up a canes fan but Tim Tebow is my fav player. My point is that the Noles are our rivals, whether you watch the sport or not, i wont understand someone saying they ARE fans of the noles but their fav player is a cane.


But besides the fan BS, the kid imo is a must have in the class with Cole and Johnson.

I grew up a fan of Randy Moss doesn't mean I am a fan of Marshall or the Vikings.


Gogeta says he is Patrick Peterson and Bryan McFaddens cousin so I really want.
 
Alot of people were fans of ST.

Its not the kids fault that FSU never developed a safety that he could look up to.
