He's not as good as his rating.

James Sylvester not being offered, on the other hand, is a little baffling.

just offer. what's the harm? i know the harm in not offering, a butthurt kid down the line. 6'4 DT do not grow on trees in this state anymore. just offer him based on his frame and monitor him for the next year.

I get where you're coming from, but Herman has been pretty emphatic that carpet bombing in-state "offers" is a great way to lose the high school coaches' trust.

He's this class's Lloyd Murray. He's just not very good. I hope LSU or A&M takes him.

Alec Bryant hasn't been offered either, I don't think. I think it's a sign that the staff feels good about where they sit with Broughton, Collins, Dorbah, and Princely

We need to get those 4 if we want to have DL depth/production on Bama'/Clemson level.  All 4 will end up 4*'s ( 3 already are ).

As long as Giles isn't the lead recruiter then yeah.

This staff has shown to be overconfident and to wiff on targets while not pursuing plan B.  Herman really needs to hire another DL coach to help Giles.  We need some bad motherfuckers on the Dline

The problem with our Dline recruiting is the style we play. Our linemen slant or stunt on every play. That frees up the LBs to make plays. Dline recruits dont like that. That was one of the reasons we missed on Max Wright. And probably a bunch of others. 

I played that style in college. Took me one year and switched to Oline. Its not a fun technique. Thats why we are banking on developmental Dline guys. Because till we start winning regularly, elite Dline are going to avoid us cus they dont want to play that style of D. 

We now have 2 conference Dline of the years and we still arent pulling elite talent. Thats the reason. Not Giles lack of recruiting chops.  Well not totally.

I assume our scheme is because of the talent we have at Dline. Get some elite DL and I'm guessing they won't be slanting or stunting on every play

We slant a fair bit. But we rarely stunt.

To be fair, with all of the moving around by LBs and safeties, if you're watching the ball on any given play, peripheral vision gives you the impression of stunting. You have to actually be watching the DL to realize that's not what's happening.

Stanford looks horrible and the OL looks like hot garbage.  I'm not even sure if Walker Little is on the field??  Time to end this Stanford BS starting with Majors and Lindberg.

Bloomgren was legit and it was a no contest vs. what Herman initially hired. The last 2 years has been a shit show for that OL. Hand is far superior as a teacher.

Hope Herman gets several years with him before he needs to see game action. Keep the athleticism and polish up the mechanics. 

Expand  

That should be the goal for every qb we take from now on. We should never have to count on a True FR QB or OL again, that is the trend I am most excited about with Herman.

Maybe in a imaginary college football world where every freshman wants to redshirt.  Now if they don't play right away they are a threat to transfer.

SIAP:  Hudson Card's JR. HUDL is out.  The kid is a stud and a half.  Still a little skinny.

You would never in a million years guess from looking at these highlights that it was his first full year as a QB. There are obviously some things he needs to clean up, but what impresses me the most is how accurate he is on the run.

From an Auburn mod: "Just talked to safety Chris Thompson Jr. of Duncanville (Texas) ... Says he's open. Says he has no leaders. But he has visited Texas and TAMU more than anyone and you get the feeling it'll be hard to pull him away from those two. That said, he wants to visit LSU, TCU, Oklahoma and Stanford in the next few months. Nothing is set up yet."

Another 247 mod on Jackson: "Just got done talking to QB Ja'Quinden Jackson and he said Texas and Oklahoma State were the schools he is in contact with the most. He said he would like to hear from Oregon since it was the school he followed the most as a kid."
