Favorite Croot

[TheU1984]

Now that 96% of our class has signed, who is your favorite ‘Croot for ‘23? They’re all great because they’re now ‘Canes but who to you is the fan-fave or ambassador ala Duke Johnson or Deejay Dallas?

I got to go with Jayden Wayne. Committed way back on July 9, never wavered throughout the rough season. His stock on the major sites also seemed to plummet for no reason yet he still tweeted out congrats to our other five stars like FM when they were named as one. He may not be as flashy on the field as some others off the Edge but the kid is a talent and going to be a good one.

CJ

 

[Ziggy]

Francis. 5 star kid at one of the most valuable positions. No drama and got us his **** brother. Alpha.

[Dre]

Malik Bryant for me followed by Riley Williams. How you know this class is amazing is the variance of answers you’ll see for this question.

Francis

 

[Bunker Mentality]

toss-up; LB flip from OU and Emory.

 

[CaneTheGaytors]

Robbie Washington. The kid is criminally under appreciated and will, in my opinion, be a star.

Ray ray

robby washington is the most electric player we've had since duke imo

Samson tied with
Wayne.


Both handled the recruitments like pros. Samson looked at all his options, took his time, then quietly signed with Miami when he was ready. Wayne decided in July and not once did he waver, a pros pro. Both 5 star talents.

RayRay Joseph.......he just seems like an old school Cane.

Francis

 

[Da Jumbo Mutombo]

Francis, hands down.

Hard working, blue collar, respectful kid. 5 star talent.

There are so many. I thought about this a few days ago and came upon Jaden Wayne as my favorite. He was one of the first to get on board and stayed on board despite the abortion of a season the Canes have had. Then, he gets dunked on in every recruiting rankings update because he is more of a run stopping DE rather than a flashy sack master DE. Throughout it all, he has kept his head down and worked hard. I can't wait for this guy to destroy RB's and QB's in the future.

Bain

 

[jhtheking]

Jaden. Started the ball rolling of the first wave

 

[Jaxson Villain]

Ray ray is my favorite recruit.


Tripp was my favorite recruitment.

 

[HarrietTubmanCane]

Francis Mauigoa. 0% bust potential. Can’t say that about every 5 ️. 100% DOG.
Gave Bain the business and Bain is a BEAST.

He just believes in the Canes. Represents his heritage, keeps his word. He is one of us. Zoom in on his picture on the Class thread…he isn’t playing any games.
