4* athlete decommits from Bama, rumored high interest in GT

I don't like all that hot dog stuff either. I don't want it on our team. That is not what we are about. However, this kid has a serious burst. He separates from people faster than any other recruit on film that I have seen in a while. The funny thing was, some of the guys who were chasing him looked like they could run pretty well themselves, and they still got left in the dust. If he has the grades, this kid is a no-brainer. Give him a scholly and make room.

In some ways he is sloppy - has the ball in the wrong hand etc etc, but the athletic ability is undeniable.

I was a little concerned about the hot dogging as well, but honestly it could be a non-issue IMO. I think the more important question is his attitude. You can have some celebratory swag while still having a team-first attitude. If he doesn't have prima donna syndrome, you can coach away the celebrations. You can coach away the sloppiness. You can't coach that athleticism. Pick em up!

Great news!!! A four star commit who originally signed with the mighty Crimson Tide.

Still keeping my fingers & toes crossed on some of our other recruits, this could be a very special class, indeed!

That puts us back with Vad pushing TW. I still wonder what Vad and Days can do...

Still need a stud NT and a receiver who can catch a dang football to open this offense up.


Information I have tells me that he just committed to GT = WOW!

Hope you're right. As for the hot dogging, I suspect Johnson will cure him of that pretty quickly.

If he can catch at all, which indications appear he can, he would be the ideal AB. It's the Percy Harvin type mold that would be perfect for us, and this kid at least appears to have that kind of speed. If he's even close to as elusive at the college level, it's a no brainer assuming QB isn't his fit. Imagine those crossing patterns the ABs run occasionally actually being caught and then someone with the wheels to just run away from everyone.

As per the AJC's recruiting blog, CPJ was responsible for the recruitment of this SA.

Great job CPJ!

Gentlemen, I have said it before and I will say it again if we are fortunate enough to get some more commitments that we are recruiting this could be a very special class for GT. Perhaps this will be our "dream team."
