True. I guess I was just looking at the end result rather than him in high school.

Stars are so subjective though. You could have a big safety playing at the 1A level and just wreck people and he'll get a high rating, but then be a bust in college when everyone is the same size as him.

Harris, Quinn, LF, garret, Adams, dupre, valentine, Paris all have 5 star potential maybe even jacory.

I'm pumped about Jacory. Have him line up at slot during a HUNH drive. Smooth picking over that linebacker.

Not just some kids but adults also which is sad..... Goes the same way too, some of these five stars shouldn't have been. I almost hate the system and think it's affecting FB, a lot of these guys get their little stars and are vindicated, then give up on their careers. Then again it kinda weeds out some you might want to weed out so I guess it's good mostly, if that's all it takes for you to be satisfied well..... Don't need ya

it's Quinn

he only broke top receiving record of all time against legit enough competition.. he has hands, speed, ball skills, route running.



I think if the national analysts knew what it meant to have your best games against West Monroe, Acadiana, and Evangel, perhaps there would be a fifth star next to his name!

Just gonna use this class. Also, some don't understand what being a 5* means. It entails pro potential which means a star or long time starter in the NFL not just getting there.

Quinn-he's the most ready wr in the country and will putup big numbers in the right pro system ala Welker in NE

Adams-best S in the country and the type of S the NFL wants now because he can cover.

Valentine-prototype DT that could play in both the 4-3 and 3-4

Brumfield- the suprise. Fits any kind of blocking system you want as an OG because of his athletic ability and length.

In hindsight, the most obvious is Mathieu. Hes a stud pro.
Reid also has shown so far to be possible as well.

Idk if Michael Clayton was but he played like it


MC was a unanimous 5* player, parade all American, top WR in nation, on and on and on. Not only that, but he was probably a top 50 player in America in basketball, would've been top 5-10 if he was a tad taller.

If you've just recently started following recruiting, he was a prospect rated with the likes of AJ Green, Julio, DBG, Dupre etc.

Played against him in Hs and it wasn't even fair.
