More prospects! This young man caught my eye, no Diddy.

Immigrated to the US from the Virgin Islands in 2022 and literally just started playing football. Verified numbers from the spring:

6'7"
259 lbs
10.25" hands
35.75" arms
87.75" wingspan

FREAKISH numbers. He also claims a 5.2 40 yard dash & a 31 inch vertical. Syracuse jumped on him quick in the spring without barely seeing much film and got him to commit. They are his only offer to date.




He is obviously very raw, as his pad level is higher than Curren$y, but he shows great movement and good strength. With good strength and conditioning & a solid OL coach, he should be a very, very good player in short order.

Good job finding this one. Interesting he only has 1 P4 offer and its a good spot for him. He seems locked on with the Cuse which is why he only has one offer.. I'm curious why USF or UCF didn't go after him cause they could always use giant OTs
 
that’s a two year project . This era I’m concerned about projects with the transfer portal . We have some some of those now
 
Seems like a prospect to monitor, and tamper if he starts to develop at Cuse. Underfunded college programs (regardless on conference) will be pipelines in the NIL/Portal era.
 
If Miami is going to try and flip a project Olinemen then we should go after OU commit 2025 OL Darius Afalava. He is monster in the run game and climbs to 2nd level with fluidity.

Go Canes

If Syracuse is willing to be patient, it may work out.

It’ll be 1.5yrs in the weight room just to get him D1 ready physically. Then maybe another year technical work.

At best, you can expect him in the 2-deep by the spring of his RS Jr year.

Do coaches even last that long at programs anymore?

It’s not going to be if a team is the kid willing to wait is the better question or will they transfer out

As much flak as Deion gets he does raise a good point.

He was saying when I look at a recruit or transfer how are they going to contribute right now on the field. Again he’s more portal heavy to be fair. He pulled his numbers up from his time at Colorado, out of 25 players in spring (don’t remember total or incoming) only 10 have stuck after spring.

I feel like with the transfer portal now if you’re taking projects like this, it’s going to be a luxury.
