I wonder what the hold up is. He's dominated every event and has some impressive film, especially when you consider he played part of the year with a partially torn acl. It seams inevitable he gets an offer, why make him wait.

It is what it is. When you can pretty much pick and choose any DB in the nation, kids this size have to wait. Doesn't mean he can't play. Doesn't mean he will not receive an offer. Just part of the process. He's listed at 5'9" 157 with a 4.62 40 on his Hudl. There's a lot of guys with better measurables. I agree that actual play on the field should outweigh other factors, but college coaches disagree.

My thing is, from what everyone is saying its a matter of when, not if he gets offered. Why wait if you know it's coming?

I know he has disadvantages because of his size but we offered Kirkland to play corner and he plays QB in highschool. I would rather offer the undersized kid who has proven himself over and over again at a position than the ideal size athlete who doesn't know what he's doing in the same position.

Short AND slow? That's the kiss of death for a defensive back. I don't care how tough he is that won't work in major college football.
