‘23 NC WR Nathan Leacock (Tennessee)

We need higher ranked players. Having said that this dude is a stud.
LOL... Interpretation: "I'm constantly talking crap about recruiting rankings but I don't want to really stand by it or risk this guy will be really good... so I'll say he's an exception".

Have the courage to stick by your crap. If UT needs "higher ranked players" then just say this kid sucks. The recruiting sites think he's worse than 77 other WR's in the country.... 247 says 91 are better. According to them he's not even a top 10 player in NC.

By everything you've argued for weeks and months now... this kid is a step backwards for the program. You made the claim. Own it.

Dude. Say what you mean in the first place. If you are misunderstood then just apologize, correct the misunderstanding, and go on. What you said didn't need to be "stroked" or whatever. You said it would be a sign of problems if Herring became the starter. That's not necessarily true.

At what point have I anointed anyone much less Herring in that way? Now you are grasping so that you can avoid admitting a simple mistake in the way you said what you said. Something that most here do at some point or another.

I don't know what kind of player he will be. All I said is that it won't necessarily be a sign that "something has gone very wrong" if he becomes the starter. UT has had Fr that had the physical talent and picked up the schemes and the speed of the game to start. It isn't likely. It is rare. But it is just as much a possibility that something has gone very right as very wrong.



Wow. You have an interesting imagination coming up with all this when someone simply challenged YOUR DECLARATION about the meaning of one person or another being the starter.

Ok, it likely means something has gone wrong. Seems like you could’ve made that leap without my help instead of being a pedantic crybaby.

If he’s the next AJ Johnson immediately that’s a good thing. But it means our upper classmen at the position are being outperformed, so isn’t that something going wrong in a sense? Idk it doesn’t matter. Just say you disagree and go back to troll patrol dude, idc.

Great pickup with Leacock, he should be a 4 star.
 
If any one else listed to the 247 Douchebag and Callahan podcast, RC spoke very high in this kid. Stated he didn’t have a hand in the rankings but he expected Leacock to potentially have a Kaleb Webb like jump.
Wait so Ryan Callahan is an expert talent evaluator?

I think this account is worthy of a BUMP. It appears to me, that this guy was an important target for this staff and they got him. We shall all have to wait and see if his size and speed and being an elevated target for his team this year will translate into a ratings bump. As good as the services are they cannot be expected to project growth and development. They rated a pretty average size 175 lb guy with film from his Jr year... things change.

So I will sit back and see OVER TIME whose evaluations and projections up to this time are more accurate, the services or our staff. They will take some risks and win some and lose some, but barring injury, I think this one is a win for the good guys. I do feel confident this is not a late in the cycle reach into the three star pool. I HOPE his SR production and highlights gain him a ratings bump. Regardless I am thrilled with all three guys mentioned in this piece based on their measurables and our staff making them a priority.
