The more I watch Gilmore the better he gets. The kid is dang good at football.
We've added speed on both sides of the ball too and that's huge!
Decarlos is the fastest kid I've ever coached and I've had some fast kids. Decarlos stole home one time and he slid past the plate before the pitch even got there. Now it was a left handed pitcher and in windup but still, blazing fast kid. His speed is legit and not just speed he's extremely agile loose hips and he's at full speed on first step. Also he's long he's not 6'3" either he's over 6'4".
That's awesome. Sounds underrated with that size and speed. If only Bama offered***Quote:

We got everybody we expected. We got all the toss ups. We got a flip. Has this ever happened?
And he's a hard working kid with great manners and attitude. Yes sir, no sir young man. Great family. They were all In maroon and white today and ringing cowbells. Extremely coachable. He'll be an nfl corner barring injuryQuote:

With Clayton in the boat that makes 18. Thomas, Pope, and Moss will come between jan and feb signing days so that puts up at 21 before any portal players come in.
Now the real fun starts...
Seeing as the recruiting profiles of both WSU and Tech jumped 20 spots while he was there I'd say that's very true. Now he's at a program where just jumping 10 spots from the norm puts us in undiscovered country.Quote:

Leach cant recruit
Nicholson is a baller. He impressed me so much at Petal. He is a winner. Biggest steal of the class. He will play for a long long timeQuote:

Yes he is. He's a winner and a leader.Quote:

You said a mouthful man! Absolutely right. You either have it or you don't!Quote:

Ajay Allen still seems like a possibility. Is Riley Quick an option as he went unsigned? Is Elam in the mix at all?
Just wonder from the high school side what we will look at and what options are available.
Allen, yes. Elam and Quick, no.
Doubt we grab another HS kid beyond Allen and those commits signing later unless I'm just forgetting someone. Portal is about to get crae crae! OL, DB, K, WR are leading the way. Hopefully we get some good news soon.
Any feel today for what Allen might do?Quote:
