2019 Recruiting - Football

I don't mean to be negative, but if he is only 180 pounds, he doesn't look as fast or shifty as a back that size would need to be. Maybe he has deceptive speed, because his running style is a smooth legato instead of staccato, if you get my point, but among the hundreds of amazing RB highlight reels we look through, with all of them having TD after TD, I wouldn't necessarily remember this one.

He has very nice balance and strength, and just enough speed on each play to make it work.

Now I am googling it, and his 40 time is listed as 4.62. I know he must be a player, but does that concern you?

VY, I’m with you on the 40 time as a concern. In the past it was all hand timed, and everyone ran a 4.4. There are certain camps, mostly invite only that have an electronic system set up. When you look at say 247, it will say verified times. This means no human element involved, verified on that day as... doesn’t mean he can’t run a 4.4 consistently.
If it helps the top WR commit to tOSU (for now) Garrett Wilson is a high 4.6
The 4.28 shuttle verified, extremely impressive. This kid is quick.

Wiltfong also put in a CB for Plano S Tyler Owens (6'2,202) to Texas
Tyler Owens, Plano East, Safety

Tyler Owens got a huge rankings bump today.
Now a composite 4-star and in 247's natl top 100
As pointed out in posts way back, he is a freak
Owens + Gbenda in the calculator = #7 class, just sayin

"Owens possesses one of the more unique size/speed profiles in the 2019 cycle with blazing track times (including a 10.34 second 100 meter time) on a 6-foot-2, 202-pound frame. Twitchy athleticism and length are critical factors at safety and Owens has them in spades. Those traits are translating on the field as a senior and manifesting themselves by way of top notch striking ability and closing speed."​

. Just think where we will be if we get those two to #7 then add Trey asanders and Bru McCoy (fingers crossed). :hookem:

Just keep winning and everything will work itself out.

It’s very debatable, and possibly counterintuitive. Winning early may not matter. Just improve. The kids we are recruiting believe they will be the difference. The stats are simple, winning doesn’t matter as much as most think.

Joe, do recruits like Cine shy away because of great freshman play by Sterns, and Foster?

I'll be interested to hear Joe's answer, but I've always had the belief kids are looking to see how open coaches are to getting players on the field early.

I dont think there is a blanket rule for that, it's something that is up to each individual. One certainty is that opposing recruiters are showing them the depth chart. But I dont think the studliest studs even care, did Earl or Ricky give depth charts much thought when they committed? Sort of explains Alabama recruiting under Saban too.
