This is slightly off topic, but I would just like to point out that in the top 5 on rivals, 4 of the teams are SEC.

we need robinson in this class. dont think it would be smart to put his commitment off. we would surely lose him to fsu if we waited for priest. from what ive been hearing & reading, he's as good as almost any in the country, with maybe hargreaves, and willis slightly ahead of him..

Both have the potential to be great players. Already have great size, strength, and speed.

That's the thing, we really don't. Only a few that are probably committing. Plus we're losing 5-6 defensive linemen after this year. We need recruits who could play almost immediately. Probably wouldn't have to start, but get a good bit of playing time as true freshman.

I agree. R. Robinson is not getting his fair share of love from the Tiger Nation. Kid is a Stud and wants to be here. Nuff said!

absolutely if he leaves early. he is very intelligent, i believe both his parents graduated, and i think he will earn his degree before he goes. $$ talks though.

Then you are a really shitty judge of talent, Reid is easily a first round talent and one of the best this school has ever had.

I'm still skeptical on Swanson, Stokes, & Baker... I think those 3 commits might be holden us back from bringing in more serious talent...although idk anything about Stokes I'm not impressed with Baker & Swanson is just a FB nuthing more

Well I guess you don't remember how important Quinn Johnson was in 2007. Can't underestimate the importance of a fullback in our offense and he is the #1 ranked one, after all. Far from a waste of a scholarship.

I read that baker is getting a bump to 4* status i believe and that he is the real deal. I haven't watched any film on him so im just going by what the "experts" say

Both stokes and baker are underrated.
Baker is lighting it up at camps from what Ive read. I hear stokes has serious catching ability too.

Swanson is a FB. in les' system-- you need a good solid FB so don't mind that either.
Nothing is good for anyone anymore?

i dont think he was implying that he wasnt 1st round talent. I think he was stating that he disagreed with him leaving early. I hope we have him for two more years.. he is just a jr isnt he?

We are of differing opinions.
I really like Baker's game and his potential.
Hell, so far, I think he is probably the most underrated player that we have committed to us.

Agree with Cecil.
I hate when people who don't follow recruiting like mrohio act like they do and make dumb ignorant statements like that.

100% dead on about baker. He and leslie are just the big bodies we will need. Throw in D. Smith at 6'4" and add some speed in there with J. Brazil, and that my friends spells TROUBLE for future Defenses..

Me too. His highlights are solid. If he improves his balance I think he can be a heck of a player

I get my hair cut by the same guy as Reid and I've heard him talk about a degree like it matters. His parents are well off and he was the valedictorian at dutchtown. He could be the first safety taken, but I think he'll graduate.
