OL random recruit thread.

[MiamiChris]

Figured since we are visiting or offering random 0 to 3 Star OL mine as well keep track of them in one thread.

Richt and Jess Simpson meeting with this dude committed to Cincinnati

Guys skinny for sure

 

[Captain Uberpants]

Listed at 260 so I’m guessing 245ish?

 

[Captain Uberpants]

Whats more embarrassing, begging G5 prospects to come or missing on said prospects?

 

[Cuban-Cane]

This kid is interesting. If you go to his rank history on 247 you’d see that he was ranked a lot higher just 4 months ago.

Meh. Wouldn’t read too much into that. Richt is in NY both for this and to do media for the bowl game. Simpson is there because the DL recruits are in the area. Maybe a little wishful thinking there, imo. We’ll see.

Saw this a bit ago..... WTH Is Bama really going to land them both???????

I am even more surprised that you're shocked.

What does "RTR?" mean in standard English?

 

[PSU Cane]

Bama is going to sign 2x5* (3 if Wright signs) and 4x4* Olinemen.

They win the trenches every year which is why they stay on top, even with suspect QB play before this year.

Roll Tide Roll

But we heard a Wright’s family doesn’t accept money

They operated at the 85 scholarship capacity and sign a minimum of 4 OL per year. We operate under 78 scholarships and have signed an average of 3 OL a year the last 3 years. Even before recent decommits we were only targeting 3 OL. We don’t leave ourselves a lot of room for error.

Bama gets the best talent and the best coaching on the O-line. It’s simple

 

[gogeta4]

Project tackle. Looks to be a legit 6'5 -6'6 though and likely 260-265. A lot of room for growth...as good feet, not strong.
He's a kid you sign and stash for 2 years...and let him loose at 6'5 290. Had a UVA offer and they are pretty solid with their ol. OL is different i look at who certain recruiters target..its a bit different than skill guys.

If this helps us with Hunte his teammate at DT im all for it...looks like we're flooding NYC and having the bowl game there is good. Wish Richt can mosey over to NJ and offer some kids aa well

 

[Girthquake]

Is there really a point to cfb anymore if Alabama buys it’s way to the top every year

 

[skeeter]

This NYC kid is intriguing, doesn't really fire off the ball, and can play a tad high at times (not all the time), but has a wide base for a tall, lanky kid, and looks pretty flexible and athletic

I can see why they may like him better than Cartwright, Boyd, and some of the other Tri county tackle prospects, he's at least comparable to Boateng and imo, I'd probably go with this kid.
