'20 TX QB Haynes King (TAMU Commit)

He's 6'3".

I'm pretty sure he'd be taller than 99% of the people at Dollywood.

Is he really 6’3”? Rumor is that’s quite inflated and he’s closer to 6 or 6’1” from folks who have seen him in person. Doesn’t mean he can’t play but it could be generous.
 
The top schools in the country routinely hold multiple 5 star QBs so I don't think that is true.

But so what if it is? The whole "scared of competition" argument is just a way to guilt two QBs into a situation where one will definetly suffer a major career setback. Does no good to be the second best QB in the nation if you are watching #1 while holding the clipboard.

It's easy to sit back and talk crap about the kids when you aren't the one with the first half of your collegiate career on the table.

First of all, the top schools don’t hold multiple 5 stars in the same year or close to it. See, e.g.: Ohio State (Baldwin and Martell), Alabama (Hurts), UGA (Eason, Fields), and Clemson (Johnson).

Secondly, please show me where I “talk[ed] crap” about them for making a business decision regarding what is best for their careers. My post was responding to one that claimed King would have a mindset of “iron sharpens iron,” and come to Tennessee for the purpose of competing with Bailey. I simply disagreed that most kids are going to have that mindset. Your own post did a very good job of describing why most high school QB’s making rational self-interested decisions about their futures would want to avoid that situation, so I’m not sure why you took such offense to my post.
 
JG going pro? In what sport??
The coaches do not believe we are going to win just 6 or 7 games this year. If we win 10 plus bowl game with JG leading the way, Yeah I see him getting drafted. Hes tough, does not make mistakes, and getting developed properly now. So we will see .

Think the Heisman is more impacted by win totals than the draft. A QB can have an exceptional season and the wins still not come, bad defense or whatever. NFL scouts don't quite have the same bias as the media.

If he has an 'it' season, think he's gone even if it's 7 wins.

I’m not gonna lie it’s hard not to love this kid and I can see why UT is after him so hard.... the guy just has “it” likeable,hard working,straight to the point, country kid. I will probably root for this kid regardless of where he goes. You would have to imagine with Pruitt’s background of being a coaches kid, country, straight shooter guy.... think that wins out.... but that draw to the instate school is tough... if we were the instate school this would of been over awhile ago.

Right. We have such a lockdown on in-state recruits.
 
It’s wild to me how these rankings camp guys evaluate stuff.

I think King is going to be a really good QB regardless of where he ends up, but this reads as if he was inconsistent throughout the day only to get an enormous amount of praise for how he performed during a competition throwing an unguarded fly route.
 
A dangling participle modifies the wrong noun. Usually you've left the subject implied and are taking for granted that your reader will know what you mean. You fix a dangling modifier by putting the proper subject in the sentence, usually right after the participle or participial phrase.

Wrong:

Scrolling through the recruiting forum, the booms exploded everywhere.

Right:

Scrolling through the recruiting forum, Sleegro saw booms exploding everywhere.

I believe that was actually dangling bait from Sleegro.
