Jakobe Thomas .. Hats off to the Man

[deezydinh]

Insane pick up for us. Big hit

Was told he was a box safety

Dare I say he's on his way to becoming a top 5 miami hurricanes transfer portal pickup. Cam Ward, Jalen Phillips, Deriq King and Matt Lee are at the top for me. Beck, Brown and Thomas battling for that 5th spot

I'd include Keionte Scott.

Scott misses one game and he is already forgotten

I think we do. Many of them are a year from the draft and have set themselves up nicely this year in Heatherman's system; why leave?

We lose Scott, Thomas and Brantley. Who might jump in the portal the kid from STA King? Mack? What's his name?

I think Day is ready for a big year next season along with Poster and Bryce at safety

Why? Someone could be in their ear with BIG bag and full time role, I dont know depth charts but you have teams like TTU who pay 4-5x market rate to lure players, they have GMs who scour depth charts and they have 4 cracks at our guys to lure a guy if they have MAJOR needs.. Its not crazy talk to think it can happen..

Yesterday showed Scotts value, we had multiple guys rotating in his spot, Fitz to play more corner nickle, pruitt when we wanted more run support.. Scott NEVER came off the field when he played, he was nickle/corner/run supporter/blitzer/edge setter/enforcer ALL IN ONE.

If that’s not a safety with a future in the NFL..maybe I have no idea what I’m looking at. This kid has some lights out film this year.

 

[Garnacho]

That first interception was beautiful safety play. Haven’t seen anything like that in awhile.

Didn't say it wouldn't happen or couldn't happen. Simply saying these guys are earning good money here and will see a bump in NIL to stay and the results here within our system have helped elevate their profile. Why risk long term money for short term money?

How many players we have leave here to go undrafted? Cmon now..

2 FR

Now we can draw even more playmakers who want to play in this scheme. Turn on film and we have multile guys in secondary thriving.. Even got the TE recruit like the defense goin CRAZYYYYYYY

 

[drewm3i]

He plays like him too--same style of safety.

True but what we showed was good coaching and adaptability.

 

[Tweed]

He was really good at football yesterday.

An utterly dominant performance--Sean Taylor-esque (never thought I would say that).
