Which 2026 South FL Flip would mean more?

[Sebastian Font]

Of the two 5 star SFL commmits we’ve lost to Texas so far in Cooper and Johnson, whose hypothetical flip would mean more for the ‘Canes?

Personally I think Cooper would mean more just off his ceiling, even possibly getting looks at LB

(Yes I know Calvin Russell is also a five star committed elsewhere but I don’t take anyone serious when their final three includes Syracuse and FSU)

Didn't realize we are getting waxed for two hometown 5 star kids by Sark

Johnson

We’ve been building a good dline for the future we need the DTs though

James Johnson imo

Cooper would garner more headlines but I'll always take the elite DL. Harder to find than RB.

[Golsen82]

James Johnson of course

 

[Peruche]

With Coach Cristabol's offensive lines UM will always have productive running-backs,
give me the 5 Star Defensive Tackle continuously.

Doesn’t matter as they are both committed to an SEC team so either one “just means more”…..

Johnson…

I like the Mallory kid we have committed and I really would love for us to up the bag and flip Joe Lamar from jawja. His film is real nice

He should’ve been a Cane after his visit, was all Miami.

I’d love to circle back on him

From what I’ve heard cooper if he wants to play LB, but I still think Johnson. Need dt’s

Cooper.

Johnson a mercenary he isnt really a local kid.

from a recruiting perspective standpoint. I also like some other dts.

Cooper more of a game changer in the sense

This was my thought process as well

As much as DT’s are crucial, Cooper just has the “it” factor
