What do you guys think of this CB FSU just offered

  • His first offer. Tall and pretty freakin impressive in shorts and a shirt. Our CB board looks great right now so I doubt we take him before a summer camp but who knows. Others may jump in.

    Video is on the right and from 10 days ago.

  • Y'all are on the verge of offering Adrian Baker, too, who we just offered the other day. He couldn't commit til he camped, though. I'm sure it'll be the same way with Jimbo/Stoops.

  • He grabbed the shirt of the kid in blue badly lol

    I'd say each time he was covering someone could have been called PI.

    That's just a first short look at him though. He's got the size and look. Needs to clean up his technique which will come from coaching. He'd be somewhat of a project. It'll mostly come down to how well we do with the guys higher on our board.

    GO NOLES!

  • 3rd play you're right. First two plays were amazing coverage with him getting PI'd if anything.

    fsufsu

  • Yeah, that didn't read well. I meant by someone, either offensive or defensive PI. Except for the third play, that was pretty blatant.

    GO NOLES!

  • Gotcha. I think he looks like an awesome prospect. Bring him in and redshirt him. XR27 --> Keelin --> dis dude

    If the shoe was on the other foot & this was Miami offering, you'd be singing a different tune.

    In saying that, I like it.

    The fact that you don't understand why is alarming. FSU is in a position of power in recruiting. Back to back top 2 classes and far more positive momentum than Miami. Miami just stole half their class from the MEAC, went 6-6, won't do better this year, and have sanctions coming.

    Am I a homer? Much of the time. Are you blind if you think that's the major dynamic at play when we discuss offers? yup

  • You could argue FSU is a few points from being a 2 loss team as well.

    FSU was 4 points away from having the same record as Miami. You are simply delusional. Yes they are in a good spot in recruiting... Miami isn't exactly whiffing on kids these days though. 8th overall class is solid. I would point out the BS in your MEAC comment but why bother, already done that before. We took 78 kids last class, blah... Just don't see how you can offer "scrubs" with only MEAC offers but we can't... It's not like your 5 stars ever pan out.

    4 pts from nothing. We were two injuries away from 11-3 with ease as well. It is what it is. And you're class being 8th is a farce only Canes take seriously. If you honestly think that was the 8th best class in America then bless your heart.

    Our five stars weren't panning out under Bobby, we're about to hit the NFL hard in the next 3 classes guaranteed.

    Al Golden simply Ole Miss'd the math formula. Congrats.

    Tracy Howard, Duke Johnson, Deon Bush, Ereck Flowers, Tyriq McCord, Raphael Kirby, Jelani Hamilton, Malcom Lewis, Angelo Jean-Louis, Robert Lockhart, etc.... If Ole Miss'ing it means getting signatures from kids who can go to any school they want, not bad Al, not bad.

    The first three are elite. Flowers through Lockhart are low four stars with flaws in their game/make up. Those are the headliners of a 34 man class. Congrats.

    And Darby over Howard is inaccurate. I agree. But Darby is a freak show and will be amazing in Tally. Luckily we have other elite CB talent so he's not going to start as a Fr........and get burned a lot.

    biggrin

    Flowers was the best lineman in the state along with Avery Young. Any coach in South Fla will agree. Lockhart is a stud. His film is just nasty. He can be a low 4 star, still has the goods.

    Darby is a good athlete but he isn't close to the complete corner that Howard is. At best he should have been a low 4 star. Speed alone doesn't make you a great football player.

    Wow. Better than John Theus huh?

    Film? Or highlights. Huge difference.

    Darby is not a good athlete, he's an amazing athlete. He is not close to the complete corner as Howard, better athlete though and that's why you pay coaches. At best a low four star? Come on man, please. He looked absurdly good in All American practices and the game, which led to the boost.

    Come on man.......damn

    Flowers is as good as Theus. Just look at the tape of Flowers and you tell me the difference, Flowers one of the nastiest Lineman i've ever seen on film, don't get wrong Theus is a stud, and this business with the MEAC offers from FSU fans has to stop, its laughable.

    Film or highlights? It's a huge freakin difference and many think they can see the picture from 30 plays from a kid's season.

    Look at the offer lists. Half your class picked Miami over Wake, Ball State, etc.

  • I think it's about time FSU started recruiting kids rather than rankings. For the first time in many years I think FSU knows what they are doing.

    It's funny he listed Jelani. Since he couldn't come to FSU.
