DT Jared Goldwire update

View as article
It seems like Kool likes projects or small target recruits. It's all he's known having only coached at Toledo and Mizzou. Maybe he'd rather take a low maintenance personality with a high motor and good measurables over someone who many think is close to a finished product.

DJ Johnson and Joe Jackson were the most regarded recruits he's gotten and both had a fairly quiet recruiting process. I know there was some talk of Nesta taking visits but I think that was just a product of people freaking out over nothing. Not a lot of drama amongst DL recruits.

If it ain't broke don't fix it. I have no worries about what the DL will look like next year. Neither should you.

DJ did not have a quiet recruitment lol...he took his visits and there were countless rumors about him and a few west coast schools.

The guy is a great coach but you're just rewriting history to make his recruiting this year look better. He went after highly sought after guys (Vincent, Trout, Davis, etc.) but got beat out. He's still after Thompson who is a top 100 prospect but he appears to be a long shot as well.

Given his credentials, the production on the field, and the school he's recruiting for, I'd say his recruiting here so far has been underwhelming: Jackson was already committed prior to his arrival, Johnson apparently has Cane family and actually contacted him, and Silvera/Garvin just needed offers.

With the very likely possibility of losing the top 3 DT's on the team this year, a three man class including Goldwire (coming off knee injury; competing against Louisville, Oregon State) and Carson (project) isn't the amazing haul some are trying to make it seem.

The kid took some visits. Kool flew out and locked him up. I consider that a pretty quiet recruiting process when you compare it to a lot of the other big time DL prospects we've gone after. It seems like you just like to critique Kool by saying he's recruiting a bunch of nobodies and discredit any of the big time recruits by saying they would have come here even if we didn't have Kool.

Deep breaths homie. We good.

Didn't Kool land Sheldon Richardson? That wasn't a quiet recruitment

Kool didn't land him

Dj had a quiet recruitment. Wanted to come to UM and never waivered.

The only circus was fans freaking out over him taking a visit but never saying anything about going somewhere else.

Was he the one who told the coaches to go recruit other people and not worry about his in home visits because he was locked in and wanted to make sure they spent time on people who might not be locked in?

Not panicking, but can you explain to me how at this point "we good" at DT? As I pointed out above, the two most likely additions are midlevel prospects who may not be early contributors - and it's not like they are even strong leans at this point either. With the potential turnover at DT, you'd like to be in a much stronger recruiting position this late.

Guys are freaking out about certain DB recruits when there are multiple great prospects already committed, yet all is quiet at DT where there's just one commit in December lol

Retarded. Typical star *****. Rj mcintosh and Norton were mid level prospects as well. **** rj was barely a 3 star. Lol.
We only need two kids, silvera and goldwire. A third would be ideal but not necessary. Carson is an elite dt/de prospect , his value lies in his flexibility. Thompson is also elite so is Briggs.

With kul every kid in the 3 deep is a legit nfl prospect.

Until proven otherwise, I will have full faith in Kool and his process.

Not much he can do about RJ and Norton leaving early. If they stay then our depth this year is a dream. Kool is a master of development so chances are a few guys already entrenched in the program (Bethel, Willis, Ford) take big strides next year. Factor in a talent like Nesta and that's the 2 deep right there.

If we bring in 5 DTs that are Freshmen or transfers will that really make you feel that much better about immediate depth? We still have a few months left in the process. I wouldn't be surprised if we get a grad transfer too that comes out of nowhere. Let it play out.

Briggs isn't coming. Might as well take him off the list right now. That being said, if I was a bookie, the over/under for us right now would be 2.5 DTs (Silvera + Goldwire and/or Carson + an outside chance at Thompson).

Y’all worry about dt recruting too much. Kool develops his guys regardless. Results speak for itself and he has arguably the best dt in the country committed right now... y’all got to get out of this fantasy of landing 3 elite dt recruits in a class. It’s not going to happen. Maybe you can get 2 but that’s about it.

Kool got multiple 5 stars at mizzou (terry Beckner, Sheldon Richardson)

We're worried because of quality depth. Not every single DT that Kool comes across goes onto the NFL. Tyreic Martin wasn't even in the rotation this year after 2 years in the program. Landing multiple 5 stars and high 4 stars likely won't happen. But to criticize fans for being a bit concerned is irrational.

You are listing martin, who is counting on him beyond being a 6th or 7th option at best at dt?
Willis - plenty of experience
Bethel- plenty of experience
Ford- some experience
Silvera- arguably the best dt in the country (19 tfls 15 sacks as a senior)
Goldwire-6’7 300 pound athletic juco dt
Carson- 6’5 285 in the mold of RJ McIntosh
Fines
And the big dends who can move inside on certain downs

Interesting Post ... when did Goldwire & Carson sign their LOI

The struggle we have recruiting DT is a huge hint that bags are being dropped.

I'm not one to cry about recruits being paid - but when one of the best DL coaches in the country is recruiting you to play in Miami and you go elsewhere, you have to question what's going on behind the scenes.

I'd guess that elite DTs get paid the most money on the recruiting circuit, cos HCs know you can't win without some good ones inside.
