FWIW. It’s interesting going through these old threads.Yeah - many people were saying when we signed him that he was a 'reach', indicative that JB couldn't (or wouldn't) recruit top talent anymore, he didn't have a ton of top offers, he was too skinny, yada yada yada.
Rico clearly outperformed his crootin rankings or any reasonable expectation of his abilities as a Frosh.
But - it's revisionist history to say that anybody knew he'd be good right away.

Forward that played at Pine Plains HS in NY, but reclassified to 2015 and will finish out at New Hampton Prep. Likes SU and claims they're one of the schools recruiting him the hardest.
