    Kids tape is great. Reads plays well on a good team. Good speed.

    He's got a bit of what @Dennis_DeYoung calls the physics cheat. Dudes go down when he hits.

    Not the most impressive offer list. Usually when we take a 3 star with a lowish ranking, the Pac 12 offered in addition to some other legit schools.

    Only decent offers is Utah and Baylor

    I haven't watched his film, but this seems like a reach we shouldn't have to take at this point. I guess I'll watch the film though, because honestly I thought the same thing about Sawyer until watching his film

    In fairness, I wouldn’t use “only Utah and Baylor” offered as the only decent ones as an indictment

    We know Whittingham knows defense ... Matt Ruhle at Baylor knows a bit about defense as well

    Good thing we dropped Nick Herbig for this kid right @StrongArmCobra

    Possibly. Is he an ILB or SAM for us? We'll see. The bottom line is, it's fucking stupid. They visited this kid and didn't visit Herbig. We think they can't possibly have McDonald rated higher on their board than Herbig and yet their actions say otherwise. I'm perplexed.
    Or they didn’t want him more than Herbig and just got beat for him.

    It happens.
    You can't get beat when you don't officially visit a kid who wanted to officially visit.

    That's the only explanation. He was a heavy UW lean.

    If we wanted him, he'd be a UW commit.

    I mean we're getting better at recruiting but we're never going to have an entire roster of 4 and 5 star guys. Even Bama takes 3 stars.

    Only 3 star last class...


    Nice sample size

    So they’re just figuratively better than Ringo?

    My bad. I have a lot to learn from you.
    Sometimes people use sarcasm. You're struggling.

    I watched. Hes going to be a pretty big linebacker. He has better quickness and reaction than speed, but his speed leaves a lot to be desired. He does seem to tackle well.

    I dont know. I think Tevis is a good comp. I'm not sure why UW wanted him.
