Kevaughn Dingle update

[Astcloud11]

So he ran that 4.89 in 10th grade. He looks faster than that to me. He'd catch a lot of balls here. Not sure why the staff wouldn't want him since we know WR is a position of need and we currently have one solidly committed. I like and hope we get Harley but 2 wrs an my boy Deejay(if not needed on D) isn't enough.

I'm nervous about putting all our chips on with Smith/Holloman and don't want to be stuck scrambling for someone late in the game who may not even be on Dingles level.

I trust the staff though, they are obviously aware of all of this so we will see how it plays out.

I could care less what happens with Smith/Holloman...Dingle should be in this class, and I think it's a huge mistake to drop him. Would definitely put a salty look on Miami in Carol City and that's something we can't afford. Even without the bridges, he is a beast...

You guys are jumping to a lot of conclusions based on your past experiences with Larry Coker, Randy Shannon and Al Golden. Mark Richt has been a head coach in the SEC for a long time in which he consistently produced top 5 to 10 recruiting classes. He is not an incompetent recruiter Burning Bridges all over his local stockpile. He spends his free time at local fields talking to young football players and then follows it up by attending high school games on Friday nights. He's not ignoring or mistreating recruits the way Shannon did when he would pull his disappearing act from Thursday through Sunday at the peak of recruiting season. That gentleman was burning bridges. If you want to win the way we all do, which is big and with championships you need game changers, not random guys filling a roster a la Khalil Jones, with all due respect. That is what the staff is doing, looking for game changers. Look at Dalvin Cook, I bet this staff would have had him a Miami Hurricane and I saw him single-handedly beat three or four teams a year in games the Seminoles would have lost. A number of those were against us! From day one, mark richt has said that we need more top-end speed at receiver to compete at a high level. That doesn't mean you don't get a solid possession receiver in the mix, but at some point players just aren't athletic enough for that either. This is Miami, our tight ends run sub 4.9. This young man may end up in our class just yet, and I will welcome him as a fellow Hurricane, but obviously the staff does not feel the return on investment is sufficiently large at this point what he brings to the table.

And yet we're already getting beat out for the "Dalvin Cook" type game breakers in year 1. I'll believe Richt can bring in game changer blue chippers (here) when I see it.

Ahmmon Richards is a game breaker and decommitted from Miami, was on his way to Bama before Richt got him back.

Where do you guys get this 4.9 stuff from? His recruiting page? That **** probably ain't accurate. He could've ran that forty in 9th or 10th grade for all we know.

One of my former players is listed as a 4.72 on his recruiting page. (he ran that time in 9th grade on a soggy field)
Well that same kid ran a laser 4.47 when he reported to camp as an incoming Freshman in college. (and a 4.42 as a Sophomore)

Herb Waters was listed as a 4.7 as well.

Does Dingle look like a 4.9 on the field?
A 4.9 receiver wouldn't catch a single pass in Dade County.

Event The Opening (Miami)
Date 02-28-2015
WT 188
40yd 4.89
SH 4.46
VJ 29.5
PB 31
SPARQ 67.77

A year and a half ago a college sophomore ran a slow 40 at a camp and some choose to pay attention to that instead of 2 years of producing big time in Southern a Florida at a feeder program.

I just wanted to show that the 4.89 was timed at a legit event. People wanted proof and I provided it. Just to be clear you are born fast or you are not so if he is running a 4.89 ( assuming field conditions were ideal and he didn't slip ) he will never be fast.


Here is some video of The Opening @ Miami Dingle does look slow, but he is a big kid ( Joe Jackson is showing his TE skills )

You're not going to all of sudden get these players because a new coach showed up. Would you agree that UGA had more game breakers than UM the past 10 years? He has signed elite talent before, he is not some guy from Temple.

Doesn't look "slow" to me at all, just doesn't look particularly fast. He beat his guy on that slant but the ball was thrown behind him.

He's the biggest WR out there though. You can look at his a$$ (no h0m0 ) and see that he's gonna be a 220+ pound WR.

Anquan Boldin was never a burner, just a damned good football player. Dingle the same. A Got Damned football player.
