from 3-star to 4-star on 247

ranked the 14th best corner from being ranked the 28th best. Apparentely the reason for such a large humo in his ranking is the face that his senior year film so far is FILTHY.

quote:

"A cornerback that really emerged on the camp circuit, he has remained a three-star because the junior tape just didn’t quite do it for us. His senior tape is a totally different animal. The LSU commit is now a Top247 four-star because of what he’s put on senior tape," Simmons wrote on Friday. "He’s very instinctive and sees route-combinations really naturally, his acceleration to the football flashes and he brings a ton of physicality in a slighter frame."

He really showed out this summer, but the senior year film was the cherry on top.

Glad he made the big jump. He's way too good to be a 3*

Nice.

I wonder if Raydarius Jones is still someone we're looking at, too (he's mentioned in the linked article for anyone who wonders why I'm asking about him).

Wasn't he thinking about committing in the summer? Did we ask him to hold off or something?

You may be thinking of Porter.

But I find it interesting that Embody wrote this article with Jones in it, as opposed to just a national guy writing it. LSU must be a factor here.

No. I might be wrong thinking about him committing in the summer, but I definitely wasn't thinking of Porter.

No worries, not sure who else (Devin Bush?), but it wasn't Jones.

I was thinking about Jones, but the article was talking about how high Raymond was on him and how high he was on our board.

My arrogance filed that information away as he was someone we could get if we pushed. Not sure how I got there.

Loved his interviews on local radio back when he committed. He seems like real high-character kid.

Corey Raymond is such a beast at identifying talent.

Makes a big jump at the same time he visits Alabama?
Coincidence much?
