LV?? JHOP??
I know little to nothing about Kinnie. He is big (that is uncontested), could probably end up big enough to be a good NT in the 3/4 if he has some talent. They say he can move well -- that is the part that is in doubt. Can he run the 40 in less than 2 days?? It says he made 88 tackles in 2009 -- not terrible for an DT. He is a 2* on Scout, but unranked on Rivals (I have no idea about ESPN) -- so what kind of competition does his team play against in Gadsden??
We would not be recruiting him for the O line, for sure. But is he a take at the moment on the D line?? We have a serious need there, but I have been hoping that we can get both AR and Clear to commit and end up using both as DT's.
Kinnie sounds like he would be an automatic commitment if we offered -- but is he any better than Cody Robinson at DT?? Hopefully, we have not reached the panic level on DT just yet -- still a ways until NSD.
Lots of questions but few answers about this kid.
We appear to be out of it with Gabe -- I thought we were at or near the top of his list, but he seems to have fallen in love with Auburn (I still think we have a shot at him if we can get him back here for a visit). We have heard nothing out of Gosha or Bell lately, nor the others. We appear to be sitting well with Mickey Johnson, but I still worry about his ability to get in/stay in school.
Couch will be a tough pull from Kansas, especially since to come here he will need to take the additional math course demanded by the SEC. That academic course is a concern about any good DT we recruit at the JUCO level. There is a reason they had to go the JUCO route, and it was not because they love to study so much.
Does anyone know if Pauley Asiata plays DT in addition to OT?? If so, is he good at it??
Just some questions about a position of need.
