H2H was saying this afternoon that if he stayed at Holmes he could graduate this summer and be able to start in the fall at a d1 program...provided he passes everything. Based on that it appears he has found a way to play this fall.

Rabbit, yes.

How quickly you forgot about Dontae Jones.

^This is probably something that will make him feel welcome^
Not trying to be the recruiting police, but unless he is making his hearing capabilities and learning capabilities public, maybe we shouldn't throw shit like this out there.
Back in the day, "deaf and dumb" was about the worst insult you could heave.

1) In that context "dumb" means mute, not stupid.
2) I assume the statement about special help relates to him needing help to understand what's being said in class.
3) Within the last day he retweeted something noting that he's legally deaf. It's public knowledge.

There's No Place Like Holmes (school slogan when I was there....and they are correct)
Walk like the King or walk like you don't care who the King is

Here's him talking about it. Seems like a pretty smart guy to me.

I stand corrected and willing to admit it. Nice find. I hope we land this guy.

Staggered up those bleachers a time or 2

Wow, he doesn't seem like a guy who needs to be taught much. Obviously he'll need to learn scheme and what we like to do, but in terms of the basics of playing CB, he's got it down. And you can't teach those feet/hips. That's elite level there.

This kid is a player and by all accounts a great kid. He would be a great pickup.
I also really like that he has 3 years to play 3.

I stand corrected he does have 3 to play 3. That just got me even more excited because he's going to be a late enrollee due to not graduating from juco till the summer. So you cant expect him to be a big contributer in year 1 but year 2 and 3, now that gets me wooly.

If we get him, how big of a signing would this be? Aren't we basically getting a player that could've gone anywhere he wanted out of HS?

Pretty big. He did sign with Notre Dame out of HS.

Wow. He could become one of "my boys" for sure

Absolutely, he was no lower than the #3 CB coming out by anyone, and some had him among the top 20 players in the country overall.
He is a serious talent.

I love this kid, but I have an honest question: how does the hearing disability affect his and our game? There's a lot of verbal communication on the football field. Anyone have insight?
