It’s crazy that Washington State had Daiyan Henley who Chris Simms just picked as the #1 LB in the draft and Francisco at LB. More amazing he had the top 2 safeties coming from Illinois as well as a top CB in Witherspoon- who all were under recruited guys from Florida. Shows the importance of evaluation.

But they weren't rated 5-stars by the fat slobs who run the college football recruiting sites, so CIS would have passed on these ballas.
 
I think Mario would do well to hire a coach who can evaluate all of these under the radar recruits & offer the ones who will go high in the NFL draft. Never thought of it but it's a good plan.

I'm a big fan of Drew Sanders. It's really something the transition he made year 1 from an edge/rush OLB to off the ball LB
 
How about Illinois having all those guys one year after Kerby Joseph (from Orlando), who looks like a stud for the detroit lions

Henley was a wr at Nevada...Covid actually helped his case...but based on who his dad is he shoulda been a lb the whole time..just naturally tough.

I swear i remember Big U on youtube an stuff talking about his son as a wr and qb...im like dude u a bully of the bullies....that mfer need to be on defense and look how he turned out on defense.

I guess they try to downplay it as much for draft purposes....but i think Big U has been similar to Uncle Luke in Crenshaw with getting guys to college for football.

It’s also development.

The right tools doesn’t guarantee success. It’s also scheme and coaching.
