Eh, I was with you on Kirkland, but I really like Darling's feet. I never really thought that Kirkland had the feet OR technique for tackle. I think with a few years, which he will almost certainly have behind the talent we have recruited along the offensive line, I think Darling could be an all-conference performer at RT and a future NFLer

This is why the staff wasn't high on him. I started to understand a bit more after watching him a bit at the Under Armor game. I've seen milk turn faster than Kirkland.

But I still think Kirkland has potential to be an All-American guard. He could be phenomenal there.

I agree he could be a very good Guard. Wouldn't surprise me if he's an NFL guy.

I don't think the staff was real high on Kirkland. That's what I heard. I can't claim my source is impeccable, although he used to volunteer on a regular basis in the recruiting office, I'm not sure how close he is now. Anyway, that's in the past. I've heard great things (mostly on message boards) about this kid. I hope he comes.

This. They were going to take him as a package deal, but once MT6 started falling thru they weren't willing to play either of their games.

I'm changing my guess to the Gibbons thing. Never heard of the kid and signing day is one year from now, but hey I'll take it.

St. Petersburg Catholic's Reilly Gibbons is announcing today that he is orally committing to the University of Miami, choosing the Hurricanes from a list of 37 college offers, according to his father, Shannon Gibbons.

The rising senior left tackle has long had Miami near the top of his list. The Hurricanes recruited him when he was a sophomore tight end, and their interest did not wane when he switched to left tackle last season. Miami assistant Art Kehoe, who has strong ties to the Tampa Bay area, was Gibbons' primary recruiter.

Gibbons said he has received 60 hand-written notes from the Miami staff over the past three days, delivered to the family's vacation home near Key West.

The big Baron, now 6-foot-5 and 285 pounds, had an exceptional year for SPC in 2012, often dominating the competition. Gibbons has been very active on the recruiting circuit, unofficially visiting more than a dozen schools and faring well in every camp he competed in. He is still filling out and has a high ceiling, and was eager to make a decision before his senior season in hopes of bypassing the crush of the recruiting process.

Landing Gibbons, No. 7 in the Times' February ranking of 2014 prospects, is a big pick up for Miami. The Hurricanes did very well in Tampa Bay with the class of 2012 -- landing Jefferson's Tyriq McCord, Plant's Antonio Craword, Countryside's Gray Crow and Admiral Farragut's Rayshawn Jenkins -- but did not make an impact with the 2013 class, signing no local players."
