    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.

    I’m sure they told him not to visit

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

    That's the only explanation if you’re a doog

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