'19 MS SDE Jalil Clemons (Memphis signee)

[nicksjuzunk]

Shoop wants 220 lbs outside linebackers which can't effectively cover the pass on stop the run.

Nailed it here

Sounds like they evaluated him at de with no consideration that he could be recruited as olb.

This. People including several colleges were taking the close minded oh he plays DE in HS so must be a DE so he is small for a college De. Pruitt sees a guy putting up numbers but is small so he says let's look at him at OLB on a camp setting. I think he can play this position then they get their hands on him in camp to validate their evaluation.

He's quick. That's for sure.

 

[Glitch]

So basically he has dominated the camp circuit, even beating Clay Webb, but he’s a little small and that’s why he’s only a 3 star? Interesting

Another way to say it would be...

"We totally screwed the pooch here. However, instead of admitting it, we are going to slowly walk him close to the ranking he truly deserves but never give him the full credit that he has earned. We will use a variety of excuses to justify our blunder. Thanks for the $9.95."

"Your check has cleared so we're going to be frank. We totally screwed the pooch here.

Beautiful, Glitch...with a minor revision.

Wow. If he can move like that with about 20-30 lbs more muscle on his frame we got us a monster.

He even looks like Barnett coming off the ball.

Here's to the recruiting sites... ignoring him until he signs his LOI.

I remember watching camp highlights of this one cat named K. McKenzie....dude steamrolled the OL almost every play. He was like a machine.

I would hold her legs.

Well, I think the babe pretty much agrees with you. Notice the other guy found it necessary to grab and hold her legs.

cool story

 

[BJHSVol]

I know you're only comparing size but lets keep in mind Miller ran a 4.53 at the combine. He's a freak.

That's very true, he was just the first NFL 3-4 OLB that came to mind. Just thought it was funny a HS recruit was labeled as small when he's almost NFL size

 

[BJWeeks]

Will be a good linebacker for us

 

[JAllen18]

Really excited about the defense we're building. Wouldn't be surprised to have perennial all sec defenses.

Its gonna be fun to watch that's for sure and with this Defensive Staff I don't expect anything less.

And then..the Butch Jonze anti S&C approach to S&C + lazy didn't give a fudge unmotivated attitude happened..

Wow. Wasn’t expecting that. Who cares what his 40 is. Dude is quick as a rabbit. If the bend he showed in that highlight wasn’t an accident we may have gotten a steal.

 

[Coach Punk]

Chris Jones was a 6’ 4” 240-pounder DE when he got his 5-star rating from Rivals. He showed up at the MSU Fall camp as a 300-pounder who got drafted after three years. Not sure why that seems so far-fetched.

His teammate, 4 Star OLB Zach Edwards just decommitted from LSU

I remember reading that his coach said Edwards and Clemons were both great players, but that Clemons was in another league despite being ranked lower than Edwards.
EDIT: i wouldn’t turn Edwards away though lol
