Moore will either be the most overrated WR in history or a Heisman winner as a true freshman. Ok maybe somewhere in between but I can't think of a WR recruit as highly regarded as he is since ever.

Roy Williams got a hell of a lot of love in his day.

I don't recall that BJ was even more heralded that Roy coming out of HS. I know they were thought of as 1,2 in the state, with Sloan Thomas being a strong #3.

BJ and Roy were very highly regarded yes but Dakorian seems to be getting Adrian Peterson level hype. Maybe it's just my perception of the situation.

Hamilton at OTF said this evening that Barnes, Pettijohn and Tagoa'i are the three guys atop Coach Nansen's board right now.

He mentioned they do like Cunningham too, and he will be on campus this weekend.

More power to him. Must be nice as a 3 star to be able to decommit from Texas. He obviously has some better options at his disposal?

I'll have to trust you. I followed recruiting one hell of a lot more closely back in the Roy/BJ days, before instant info about every HS player worth a crap was only a tweet away. Now that so much info is available, I find myself unwilling to waste the time it takes to wade through it all to find an actual nugget of valuable info.
