I hope we get him, but, as you kind of stated, I question how "good" he is. Just seems like a LB with his mearsurable at a big school near Jackson would be well known if he were any good. Germantown isn't exactly Rosa Fort, Houston HS, Eupora, or somewhere in the Delta where the pop up guys normally come from.

It's interesting to me that he's rated above our JUCO LB Strong, who is much more ready to play & by all logic a much better player. Does raw & better measurables equal better player than a guy that multiple SEC teams are recruiting to start next season?
247 has to do something different in the way they rate JUCO players. Jadarrius Perkins has 36 total offers, 21 P5 offers, including schools like Alabama, Florida, Oklahoma, Oregon, etc. Now of course, those may not be committable, but the point stands that he's a very coveted recruit with a good skillset, yet he's only rated as an 88 3*. If you take a high school kid and give them those same offers, they're at least a 94-95 rated 4*.
