Make no mistake, I want both. Some will say losing one helps your chances with Cain next year but I’m a bird in the hand kind of guy. I want Pooka and Joiner. And cook and Surtain. I don’t care who that 5th spot is...

Not getting both. Pooka is clearly a backup plan to Joiner, which is why Joiner is being offered as a RB and Pooka as a WR even though he wants to play RB in college.

Add to that the facts that 3 of the top 10 guys next year are RB and we are in a number crunch - just dont see how they both make it.

Yes as Pooka will likely play more in the Slot.

I think we only take Joiner at RB for sure, there is no need for a 4 RB class and the staff isn't going to push out one of the current RB commits for Pooka. If we find room at WR then i can see Pooka making his way into the class but from what i've seen Pooka is looked at as a second choice behind Joiner

pooka has grade problems.

We finish with:

1. Surtain
2. Marshall
3. Joiner
4. Joseph
5. last spot (Cook, Beal, etc)

if we are fortunate to lose Washington, that opens up others as possibilities.

Not like if Pooka was recruited as WR wouldn’t be running a lot with all the jet sweeps and such

With all of the Jet sweeps Canada has been doing, WR gets a lot of hand offs. Need a playmaker to take Russell Gage’s spot next year. He was a beast this season!!

I have been hearing Pooka won't qualify. Not trying to start shite. But have heard this for quite a while. Could be BS. Anyone know for sure he's got the grades?

Joiner will be part of this class Pooka will not.

It is also starting to look like Travez Moore may not sign.
