Let's get him then. Lord knows we need LB help.

 

[VolFan4life24]

UGA, Auburn, FSU and Ga tech were listed in his top schools before he committed to Florida.

on the podcast AP said we may pursue this kid for a February signing

I'd love to see them swing for the fences on Dudley but I would be happy with this guy as well

Agreed...IMO in a perfect world we would take a HS LB like Dudley or Lightsey and land a more immediate impact MLB in the portal as well

i thought we may pursue Branden Jennings from Maryland. I know he was committed to Michigan at one point and recruited by Jean-Mary there. He played well this yr for a freshman. Kind of a freak athlete. I agree, i think what you said would be a great plan.

Would not be a bad pickup with our main targets off the board now.

@griddie Can you elaborate on why you think the staff likes this kid more than Dudley and will pursue?

I'd be interested in that notion too.

Video looks violent though. Height probably hurts his rating. Listed at 6'1". Doesn't look 6'.

I’m just going what the mods said on tos. That Dudley wasn’t a good fit scheme wise according to the coaches and that UT likes Lightsy better as a prospect. Also think we will hit the portal after the bowls and/or spring for a LB (or two depending who’s available). Expecting a lot of new entrees in waves during those times

I'd really like to see us hit the portal for a quality WR in addition to LB. Really need some help at Safety too.

Lightsey looks a little faster to me on film.

Nice the way you avoided the question.

Staff probably think Dudley will be a..... "Dud"

He didn't ask me anyway. But in Banks' scheme you gotta have speed at LB.

Wonder if there is a culture issue? His film looks great.
