You read the part about him wanting to take visits in the Fall right? Look if it’s done right now it’s Oklahoma because he has family on the team. But this Ohio State stuff has come out of nowhere which makes me think it’s just an experience visit. He told UDUB he wants to take his official.FirePete said:

I think he’s in a real similar position as Henry To’oto’o as far as Bama goes. He’s a tweener between DL/OLB for them. Henry was a OLB/ILB tweener. Bama doesn’t necessarily prioritize length but I know for a fact Bama offers and recruits a lot of guys out here to keep us working. Lot of work for a 6’1 kid if he you find those all over the south. I think he loves Bama but I think they’d drop him because they were already telling him to lose weight and get down to 228-230. Take it from an undersized recruit, when coaches are talking about weight and stuff they don’t value you. -
On page 2, there is article where is was measured at 6'1 - 230 at a opening event. Did he gain a bunch of weight?LaMichael_Corleone said:

He played the season around 240-245 cuz he THICC but Bama was jerkin him around saying they even like him at ILB without reps there IF he skimmed down. Just seems like a lot of work for Bama when they basically get anyone they want east of the Mississippi.KrunkJuice said:

Look I know it’s a long shot cuz of OU, but Coach K liked a tweet after the Sav’ell situation implying Banks was their #1 front 7 recruit. And I can’t blame him the kid is the definition of an “OKG” -

They put effort into recruiting, we don't. It's really that simple. Some people here think recruiting is just gonna fix itself once we win games, but it turns out that even having the #1 defense in the country doesn't matter if you can't sell it. Meanwhile Oklahoma is able to sell playing time on a genuinely shittastic defense. I'm shocked.CallMeBigErn said:
Oklahoma? OK.KrunkJuice said:Not like I thought we had a chance but this clears it up.
'"My recruiting is still open but these three- Oklahoma, Alabama and Ohio State stand out for me."
Oregon, USC and Washington are a few other schools still pushing hard for Banks and he visited all three this off-season. -

We should really be hitting up Jordan Banks with the same verve as we were Sav’ell. This kid is special. He can rewrite everything we’re doing and become a source of relatability for LA kids in the locker room. He also plays harder than any DL in the class, plays every position in the front 7 besides MIKE, and is a great interview. If he were from Seattle we would be hitting him up everyday. He’s the fucking man. Lets fucking get this fucking guy to know he can’t commit until he gives us the last official visit.
-
Cooper McDonald thinks we’re cool but he wants to go to Texas or TAMU or anywhere closer first. He’s also more of a LB where JB is more of a DL. They haven’t offered many OLB after that and McDonald is being recruited by Gregory which means he’s inside. Again, let’s fucking go.

Do we have a legit chance here, or is it just wishing in one hand and shitting in the other?

@LaMichael_Corleone, just finished finally watching this kid's hudl due to his name popping up a lot in other threads.
Most annoying hudl ever aside (really wish they would identify him in the picture earlier than .000001 seconds before he makes the tackle so I can watch the whole play develop...), I'd like to know what makes Banks a priority. I'm not knocking him at all--his film looks amazing--I'm just curious what the deal is. It's been mentioned a lot that his measurables are less than ideal to the point that he'll struggle to get a commitable offer back east, so what does he do that's amazing enough to compensate? Like I said, his film is great, but 90% of the film I watch of kids being recruited to UW blows me away, so what sets him apart to such an extent that several are now making him the class priority as a 6'1" pass rusher? Does he run a 4.5 40 and bench 400 pounds or something?
Again, not knocking the kid at all, just want to be educated. -
He’s smaller than Sav’ell but he’s more explosive. His first step is elite elite. Closing speed is also elite. He’s so versatile. He can play inside, outside, or even linebacker.1to392831weretaken said:@LaMichael_Corleone, just finished finally watching this kid's hudl due to his name popping up a lot in other threads.

This kid is a must get.

He’s JoJo but even more explosive. I get the sentiment of wanting to see more on film with the praise I’m giving but you just don’t see quick twitch like that at OLB to OL. Not even out of Sav’ell.
Banks right now is amazing at DT whereas most HS guys with his athleticism see that as dirty work they’re not willing to do and want to be as far away from the ball as possible. He does it because Narbonne doesn’t have any DL, they had Jonah bodies or small bodies. Brandon Jones who’s going to LSU is the guy next to him and Jordan is making plays in the back field before he’s fully initiated contact. Coach K can teach him everything Benning knows, he can’t teach Benning this kind of explosiveness.
