Maybe they like others better. Maybe Brevard like others better. He said he went with the schools that made him feel most wanted. The way this staff has attacked recruiting if they didn't push its not because they're lazy.Quote:

They've signed 1 MS kid in the last 10 years. Trey Benson RB last year & we signed 2 RB rated higher.Quote:

One of the most piss poor statements I've ever seen on here.Quote:

Yes he's big, but in Leach's offense, he doesn't want the QB to throw to a covered guy. He wants fast guys that get separation
I don't think he falls to a 3* but he's a lower 4* not a mid to high 4* kid. The kid can play he's just not a can't miss guy. There's only 1 can't miss instate this year imo & that's Deion Smith.Quote:

Cristobal came from Bama he knows this region well.Quote:

The fact that he's committed to us before is key IMO as it means that he at least likes MSU & has interest.
Hopefully LSU's offense takes a big step back & Smith sees the light
In the same way that we trust Leach with QBs, we're going to have to trust him with WRs as well. When you think back at all of Leach's best WRs, they are all quick. Not necissarily straight line fast, but quick.
Well considering he ran a 4.68 as a Soph in HS I think he has time to improve his 40. Jordan jefferson ran a 4.88 in HS.Quote:

Exactly. So far he hasn't really eaten into any of the top tier talent in the state that Alabama truly wants. The two he got this past year were Ashford the QB formerly committed to OM and Jones who was an Alabama commit that they offered a gray shirt to.Quote:

Deion Smith ran a 4.61 a year ago. I'd venture to say that it's not indicative of his ability. Most HS kids don't know how to run 40s.Quote:

If you don't think that helps go check out Leach's video when he landed on the plane & see what 1 of the 1st questions the players asked him. Also they're a winning program with 1 of the best recruiters in the country leading the program. Cristobal is a Orgeron level recruiter without the Cajun ties.Quote:

This year, I'm going to cheer for LSU to get WR commits from as many players as possible that we don't have a shot with.
Agree with this, hope it continues.Quote:

The rankings are complete trash this year and I?d be willing to say I understand if it weren?t so obvious within the 1st 10 seconds of a highlight video.Quote:

Jacobi Moore is an 88 3 star that is 6?4? and has pretty awesome burst and twitch. Honestly, if he was a 95 rated player based on his HUDL, I wouldn’t think it was wrong. Easy 4 star. https://www.hudl.com/profile/9540764/Jacobi-Moore
Calloway is an 85 with a Bama offer
Kanarious Johnson is probably the 2nd best WR in the state and an easy 4 star. https://www.hudl.com/profile/11517258/Kanarius-Johnson
Meanwhile, slow WRs like Harmon and Brevard are stuffed.
Leach is prioritizing light feet and speed. I love it.
These three alone would be the best WR class we’ve ever signed and we may add a few more.Quote:

I wouldn't think. They'd have to miss on some other guys first. Like DeionQuote:

Save a spot for Deion if he changes his mind. I think that's a realistic WR haul if all holds
Man, IF this comes to fruition......... this will be great
Leach knows what to look for and he likes to throw it deep.Quote:

The rankings are bad this year.Quote:

What's frustrating is that they've become so dependent on the combines that they're struggling to even watch a highlight video for 10 seconds & realize that the player is far better or worse than where they have him ranked.
What will be interesting this year is to see if Saban & some other blue blood coaches struggle with the same thing & sign the wrong guys.
This situation whould help MSU though as the blue blood boosters & coaches won't be as convicted about who they need to go pay
What the story on the MJ Daniels, the 4 star Ole Miss DB Commit at George County?
Is he really a 4 star & why would any decent defensive player sign with Ole Miss? There's ample proof they'd be throwing their career away
George County has a lot of Hotty Toddy in it.Quote:

I don't believe his commitment sticks. And George Co. probably has more Bama fans than anything. His new HC coach is a State fan I believe. He is indeed legit.Quote:
