This kid's family members must be gangsters, cause the competition in his whole town consists of kids that are afraid to lay a finger on this dude.

Meet Jimmy SmithMcnight was expected to be a top 10 recruit in Luisiana next year if he had not been reclassified.
any links to back up such a claim?
On my mobile but Sonny Shipping (now over at 247) is easily best analyst covering Louisiana. Read his comments below article. Kid is legit.

This dude is better than Dillard, and he's, IMHO, better than Ferby. Plus the kid is very versatile. He can play multiple positions.
I actually like his film, he's also faster than some of these guys are making him sound. He's got long strides, like Ciatrick Fason . Think there's upside at lb after a year in s&c program.
Reminds of a Najeh Davenport.

Oh, ok. Easily?, lol. You must not read anything much other than 247. To each his own, I guess.
For those concerned about speed and burst, he definitely looks to be a short-yardage back, and the Canes kind of lack that presence right now.
I think we saw Gus start to "get it" the last couple of games, so I expect him to be much improved, but McKnight might be the bowling ball for 3rd & shorts UM needs. Good hands, breaks a ton a tackles. 3rd down specialist, looks decent at LB, too.

Is long striding compatible with LB? I would think you might want somebody who runs with shorter strides.
Gore has that "old school" lean and low shoulders. Im intrigued by this McKnight kid. I like him and hopefully we can get him.
