For those who live in state maybe you have someone to keep an eye on. If you'd like a profile or HUDL just let me know.

Lane snagging at minimum 8 out of top 10, the remaining 2 is because he doesn’t want them

Simien will be crucial to land. There are only two OL in the top 50 LA prospects, but hopefully that will change through camps and new film evaluations.

Emmanuel Moses listed twice. He apparently lost 5 lbs before the second listing.

anything beyond 50 is probably a waste of time

I wonder if Ratphuc Hobley will sue to get additional collegiate eligibility

Haywood would be good for "1st off the bus"

Not really. Some of those players are what are usually referred to as “under the radar “ or “underrated.”
Also, he does it for readers who follow the high schools, the smaller in state schools, and most importantly, to get attention on kids who might otherwise not get the exposure they need or deserve

If you are insinuating he wouldnt want Haven you are sorely mistaken, alas we have our QB for that class and you're not getting both of them

True, but on average those guys are not SEC guys. There's always outliers but usually they're just not good enough.

And in this age, the ones that are actually good enough, almost always end up going to a small school and than portaling their way up.

Generally speaking, anything beyond 50 (in LA HS ranks specifically) you don't need to pay a lot of attention to.

In this day and age we certainly don’t need to hear about the top 50. Top 10 or 20 maybe. The days of recruiting players to develop them for three years are over.

Hard to believe that this is officially national signing day. It is completely anticlimactic.

Wow, Devin Lavalais from Marksville as the #38 player in louisiana seems like a huge stretch. Solid player but that seems awfully high.

The usual collection of athletes and skill players, and dearth of Big Uglies. We need to start feeding those middle schoolers more.

This year's group was flush with big linemen.

Please. No 5'-10 QB's. I don't care how talented if they can't see over SEC linemen.

Yeah because guys like Baker Mayfield, Johnny Manzel, Bryce Young, Kyler Murray, Stetson Bennett, etc really struggled recently dominating college football.
