So we should just ignore rivals when it ranks him #1 at his position and the #43 player overall?

https://rivals.yahoo.com/usf/football/recruiting/player-Marcus-Tatum-164410

And then we should ignore Tatum not being ranked at all at his position right?

So we shouldn't trust rivals and espn, even though they are the gold standard according to you?

You are aware that coaches don't recruit based off of recruiting websites, right? They watch the film themselves, then normally go see the kids play in person. They do their own evaluating, and they're much better at it than the "experts" that run those sites and the posters on VN.

Maybe better than the sites, but give me a break. You really think they are better than the evals and opinions of VN posters?! Puh-LEASE!

Absolutely. I was trying to point out D4H's hypocrisy.

Hall will slide outside. Dickerson would have to sit behind Robertson and Jones for a couple of years barring injury to those guards or one to Thomas at center then Robertson might slide to center.

Hall already is outside....he has the RT nailed down based on his play there as a freshman IMO.

I personally would love to land Dickerson but it's not the end of the world if we don't. I don't think staff would pass on him if he wanted to commit. I do know from seeing from enough people that staff sees his future at G not T. I really like the potential of our Ts in this class already and then you have Trey Smth in 2017 class that this staff really wants

We as fans base the value of a recruit on the services, yet it is pretty clear that Butch relies only on the Bobs. I'd say that 90% of the time the services and the Bobs agree, but there are clearly cases where they don't. Is it so difficult to accept that they may see LD as less important to this class for a whole host of reasons that we aren't privy to and that may have nothing to do with talent? It'll never happen, but I think it would be incredibly illuminating to see the staff's player ratings as compared to the services.

Am I the only one who is concerned about guard depth? Everyone seems to be worried about the tackles but I think it's the other way around. JMO

I'm sure we will focus more on G in next class. They like what they have next yr. Dickerson would def help though. I personally think Johnson may be an option to slide inside from this class if Nathan and Tatum pan out.

I am sure one of the tackles can adjust to playing guard if they have to.

Yall just stingy. Yall like ok we probably get all four of the guys on D. Wait, guard depth. Need more. We could probably use a guy that holds the ball with his finger on kickoffs when it's windy.

What are you talking about, Crunchimaximus under a different username? Who is saying one of those guys would have to be asked to look around?

It's real simple. If Brown, Dickerson, Kongbo, Byrd and Warrior all want in....Butch will find a way to make the numbers work. He took more the past 2 seasons than most thought he would. No reason to expect any different, now.

Siap, but relative to Moss, who all do we have at RB for 2016? Also, if we really do need him for 2016, why did we wait so late to get after a second 2016 RB, especially with the possibility of Kamara leaving early until a week or so ago?

Potential Joe young career ending injury changed things.
