*UPDATE: Flips to UNC *DB Kenton Dopson III commits to Miami

[gogeta4]

These types of kids we gotta keep home no matter what

ive been said it. I have him as the best cb since last year regardless of class. Im stamped on here for that. So whatever it is you keep him regardless of what you have at the position and NIL.

Also he isnt the pre madonna type kid...seems like a tough lunch pail mario type

Good question

Blount had a top 5-10 trajectory and fell to like 40

Toney I thought got dinged pretty badly though he was never gonna be a 5 star I don’t think

Didn’t he drop after he reclassified, though?

That’s what I meant. He dropped when reclassified

I think the original question was where the kid would fall if he switched so was just tossing out two recent examples

Blount was one of the more surprising reclass ratings because he did drop but was still a composite 5 star. That's not normally the case a lot of times it's 25-100 spots.

Yeah good point. There was a lot of chatter that he would be the #1 prospect for his class but being a Miami commit that likely wouldn’t happen

I don’t think yall realize how good this kid is. Like good luck keeping him off the field as a true freshmen

**** you think he’s that good? I only seen the highlight tape but if you like him that much, it’s high praise coming from you.

Some of you have Grade A Stockholm Syndrome. That or you are just negative about everything in life. If the best teams were not coming to kick the tires it would be a bad thing. This shows the kid is the real deal. We will fight to keep him and I think we will based on what I have read on his love for the program. Second, Who Gives A Rip about ratings. He is the same player, whether he is rated #40 this year or #1 next year.

Just wondering… how does Stockholm Syndrome apply to this?
I’m personally optimistic in his case… he is obviously a fan and will come here unless we don’t value him enough to pay market value.

He's been quite bullish on him since well before he committed to UM. Said he was right there with Hanks as best local corner as a soph.

 

[Gocanes1990]

Kid is a flat out stud. God willing he is healthy and keeps getting stronger. Will be another Day 1 can DB. Restoring back to the days or yore in the defensive backfield!

DMoney kidnapped you, and you fell in love with him so hard that it transferred vicariously onto Dopson. Easy explanation.

So, when he flipping to UNC?

If he did that won’t be his last stop, wait till the big bag teams want him. If they value him like that though

So, when he flipping to UNC?

him and flowers are close friends but from a db perspective he is head n shoulders better. Flowers has the added return ability.

seen him live. Came to the board last year and said it.

6'0+ 180+ cb with good feet, physical, and ball skills (hes always been a wr)...the game i saw him he was matcched up with Jasen Lopez most of the night i think guard D Gray as well some. But he played those two very good.

Ive said hes the best pure cb likely regardless of class or atleast top 3 (florida) and that was last szn....Its why i didnt care about him reclassifying as he is ready and battle tested. I was a a Hanks fan and i had him there with him and he is like 2-3 years younger.

Play style wise he reminds me of my high school teammate. Not sure he is as strong as B MAc was but his ability to stay in the pocket of receivers is similar.
