This is my point exactly. I believe the inadequately recruiting of these 5* RB’s correlates to Tommie Robinson. He’s not been lighting the world on fire as a coach or a recruiter. Seems like he was brought on staff for the “west coast ties” and for simply being a yes man.

His tape is impressive. I know dissing this kid is a big thing on this board


Because this board is filled with dumbasses. They need to be told what to believe by other people in order to believe it.

No one thinks for themselves anymore. What a time to be alive!

We have two all time great rb’s in Guice and Fournette, and it seems like no highly rated RB cares about LSU since them. I love Davis and he will be great, but how many damn great RB’s do we miss on?


Somebody just explained how we missed on Etienne due to not offering him early enough. He was only a 3 star at the time and everyone here had their sights set on Cam Akers. I hope that Emery flips to LSU and/or Cain commits soon, but I don't want to completely whiff on a position of need. This kid might be better than his rating too.

And if we didn’t win championships with them, how will we fair without them?

Don’t need a great back. Great defense and offensive line.

You should apologize for being a beta bitch.

If you watched this kid's tape without knowing his 247 ranking, you'd swear he was a 4 or 5 star.

Kid's tape is unreal. I am happy to have him if we can't get Emery.

I like him more than Cain. He's a great complement to Tyrion Davis' style of running.

Ree, put this highlight in the OP.

This kid is really good and definitely a solid backup plan to Emery.

Damn, we miss on Emery and soon to be Cain so we have to take Spivey? I’d rather just use the scholarship on someone who’s actually going to be useful.


I'll bet you Spivey becomes a better college RB than Cain.

Spivey is bigger (2 inches taller, same weight), a good bit faster, and much more elusive.

Watch the HUDL film in this thread against pretty solid competition and tell me you're not really impressed. That first run is against Auburn High School, which I believe is 7A and he makes them look fricking silly.

ETA:

He's also Peter Parrish's teammate, so that chemistry will be there already.

Turned it OFF 2:20 mins into it. No way in he// is this kid a 3*. The cutting and vision is atypical of a 3*. We should take this kid with open arms. If our Oline is has goid as projected, this kid has the tools to take it to the F. .kn HOUSE!

Who knows...it doesn't matter. He's clearly very good and underrated.

I bet this kid gets a bunch more offers soon.

Back when it was believed that Emery would commit to State.
