Coming off back-to-back visits to UM, Richards updates latest

Advertisement
How the **** does this kid not realize that he will have a longer and more profitable NFL career at Safety than RB?

He is a top 10 4star RB, but a 5star top 3 FS in the nation.

Not to mention that very few RBs get drafted first round anymore, and their NFL lifespan is the shortest of any position.

You obviously recruit him at whatever position he wants to play and give him a legit opportunity to play there, but Mark should see that he will get on the field sooner at FS than RB here and most places.

And anyone who signs with FL over UM this year (with how bright our future looks right now) is retarded.


I think Mark is just saying the right things so he doesn't seem like such a lock and can still visit other programs and somewhat enjoy his recruitment.
 
What I love about Richards and his potential on D is that hes so raw and new to it that you can only imagine what he can do when he focuses on it full time. Hes extremely in person too. I was kind of surprised when I saw him. Elite guy.
 
I don't think it's 100% that he's a Cane if you read between lines of what he's saying. He's looking for the best fit for his skills. If he really want to play offense, we don't really have room for him since we are loaded at WR and RB. It doesn't seem as though he's one of the top 2 RBs or WRs on the board.

Hope he becomes a Cane. We'll see how his recruitment plays out.

We have room for him at any position.

He would be put best running back recruit over anyone not named Sanders or Cain.

He would be our best WR recruit period.

He is out best safety recruit as well.

As talented as big bro is, he is the better athlete at this stage, no questions asked.

I feel he's honestly exploring his options, but we've got the inside track due to him knowing us far longer than any other school.

He's the most dynamic recruit we've had in a long time. Last time I was this excited to see someone play would be Hester. The hype is real.

You're selling Jeremiah Payton short by saying that. Richards has all the talent in the world and I dig your larger point. But Payton is elite, and Richards tape didn't actually show that much in terms of dynamic receiving. His receptions on tape were mostly short passes out of the backfield. With that said, I'm confident he'd excel at WR if that's where he ends up.

I dont care where he wants to play he is a must get. Probably should be the #1 guy on our board. Extremely bad look if we miss on him. Really talented and a legacy cant let him get away.
 
I hope you're right D. I get a little bit of a vibe just reading his comments that he's just saying the right things, but might want to not follow in his bro's footsteps or something like that.

Imo that did not sound like a positive interview for us with a kid whose brother is currently a star on the team. He made sure to say Florida was recruiting him on offense and us as an athlete. This should be a slam dunk if he wants to play rb and can beat everyone else out offer him as a rb if he doesn’t beat out the player he will move to defense.
 
I would put the best players on defense to win big........imagine if they let Sean be a rb. He may have been great but on D he was so imposing u had to know where he was. I think alot of great players should just roll on defense unless they prefer offense, if this kid prefers it im sure the staff will give him that chance.....u say what u have to just to get the ink on paper then sort it out afterward. @Stefan Adams u know Im right bruh this kid is a Cane hes in the bag.

of course you would D-wins-titles your brand!! Canelock

The staff has to be selling him on this and what Levon bell is going through.

Thanks for the insight. The staff has offered a bunch of guys at RB and WR that are rated higher on some recruiting services. Ratings don't mean sh** and are not entirely accurate, but I wonder how it would affect his recruitment if some of those other guys commit before he makes his decision.
 
This kid is not 100% Cane... I really wish I could say otherwise but his far from a lock in my opinion

They need to recruit him on offense. I feel like the only reason he has not committed is because we want him on defense.

Agreed... I don't think he's a master lock like some homers believe
 
Great **** as always Stefan.

Everything that Richards said in that interview, is equivalent to "coach speak". That interview had a similar feel to when Richt stands at a podium during game week and talks about Savannah St. being such a great opponent.

This kid is all Cane!

I got the same vibe.. Like he wants to go and create his own legacy.. And he's saying hey I wish UM well, but I have my own decision to make

Maybe he will be a Frank gore and have a long career... I'm just saying we don't know.. But keep up your narrative.
