Miami will need to pass on good players like him if we expect to be elite again realistically he won't see the field with the studs we getting

Many 4-5 star studs fail in college every year. There are no such things as "sure things"....ESPECIALLY in recruiting, let alone once the kids see the field. You load up on talent when you can. I need to watch more film on the kid but if he's as good as people say, i can't see dropping him this early in the process.

Not at Miami...All of our 2 stars turn into Ed Reed and all of our 3 stars turn into Clive Walford.

Ed was a three, Clive was a two no offense

If there are better prospects locally (and there are), then he gets dropped. He's a good player and a good prospect, but the whole idea here is to get the best possible players in here.

You don't win NCs, which should be the goal here, by passing on better prospects for sentimental reasons. He might "love the U" but I heard the same about that sniveling weasel fckboy who scurried off to UT at the last minute. Stack chips.

I'm glad he showed his **** before he got here and polluted the team. Blessing in disguise that he's gone.

He is still U.. He will be down with me on our next trip... I willing to bet he is as much a stud as anyone else in this class.. fire burns deep...just like with Shaq and Darrion its instilled in them...5'11 175 ...4.54...bench 315 power clean 300...family is from ' Out East' Jax...Miami's Overtown..will not fret over competition. .Anchors 4 x 100 and i have never been to a camp were the DBs get beat...even the elite...one on one is the receivers to lose..Nick is a stud mentally and physically. .. i pray that Miami doesn't drop him

I hope we don't drop him, he's the goods IMO
 
@franchise..There might be better prospects down here then him in 2018 but **** sure he can hold his own with anyone down here in 2017. I like Shawn Davis and he is really good but he's not elite either. Same with Henderson and Brini. There aren't any elite 5* DBs in the 17' class in the area. But there are a good amount of really good 4*s so NRoberts should fit right in.

I hope they give him a chance to prove himself if they are on the fence about him..

For what it's worth, I think the kid can play and by that I mean play at a high level here. I think with Roberts, it might take him a couple of years to develop but he has the skills. As far as potentially dropping him, I really don't think that is something that needs to be decided just yet as we have almost year before NSD 17. I'm with Franchise however in that if there are better prospects then you take the better prospect.

One more thing.....I would never drop or not sign a kid in 17 because of the 5* we may get in 18.
 
UknowWhat has mo insight to this player than anyone else and if he says he a keeper, he a dam keeper. Miami need kids with fire.
 
I like the confidence, but does it make sense to drop a kid in February because you might get other kids in November?

WOW,.... I never seen the kid, but if YOU put it like that I wish and hope they really find a spot for him!!
 
I am a Nick Roberts fan and hope he sticks. Like some have reiterated he plays with fire and a chip on his shoulders. Vey competitive. Ahman Ross on the other hand needs to be dropped. Unfortunately he is not a UM caliber recruit. Not foot speed and not very athletic
