Let's keep the commitments rolling in!

he jumped our ranking 10 spots at rvls lol

from #89 to #79.

If things unfold the way I anticipate they do our ranking over there is going to be top 40. That's going to create buzz.

Did this kid have any mid to lower level B10 offers? Seems like he definitely should have gotten a Indiana, Illinois, or Purdue ship?

 

[tep624]

We really, really needed DE's and he seems like a kid with a lot of upside. I like this pickup.

That seems to be quite the jump! I really hope that we finish this class strong and raise some eyebrows while doing it. Can't remember the last time we had a class finish top 40.

Nice junior film - though unsure about comp level. Dude looks like he's 25. Which is nice.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

So given our depth issues - this guy's 2nd string right now?

For the first 3 games it seems so

Kendall, welcome to Coach Mike Hart's home town & The Syracuse Football family! Go Orange!

The reason I'm projecting a jump that big is because we only have 11 commitments. (not going to count Riggins). Most schools are near their max already so their current ranking isn’t going to change 'that' much.

Rivls rankings are based on a point system and our points are at 735. Assuming we double what we have to 22 kids total and 1470 points that would put our ranking at #33 right now. Historically that's good for a ranking btw 40 & 35.

I’m assuming we double our current standing because of who’s visiting. There's not many ranking duds and you have to figure most of our commits will be out of these kids. Barring disaster it’s plausible we’ll hit 1450 to 1500 points. Every kid but a couple is a low to high 3 star and I also I think we land Fitzpatrick who’s a 4 star 5.8; he'd give the ranking a big boost.

With Fitz on board and if we also get a couple of the high 3 stars (5.7 range), kids like Malik Harrison, and don’t tank, then we’re almost a lock to be top 40.

We currently have (9) 3 stars led by a (5.7, 5.6, and 5.6) the rest are 5.5’s
We currently have only (2) 2 stars both 5.4

That translates to 735 points. So projecting ranking versus visitors:

Dez Fitzpatrick > 4 star 5.8
Stewart Reese > 4 star 5.8

Devaughn Cooper > 3 star 5.7
Kentrail Moran > 3 star 5.7
Malik Harrison > 3 star 5.7
Collin Miller > 3 star 5.7

Sean Riley > 3 star 5.6
Jaquwan Nelson > 3 star 5.6
Jawon Hamilton > 3 star 5.6
Adrian Killins > 3 star 5.6

Devon Clarke > 3 star 5.5 (no offer)
Sam Brodner > 3 star 5.5
Josh Black > 3 star 5.5
Evan Foster > 3 star 5.5
Jerron Rollins > 3 star 5.5
Marquis Smith > 3 star 5.5
Armunz Matthews > 3 star 5.5
Jerrion Nelson > 3 star 5.5

Andrew Armstrong > 2 star 5.4
Rashad Smith > 2 star 5.4

Drew Beesley > 2 star 5.3

Cedric Byrd > (not ranked but no offer)

Good to see Asil isn't shy on Twitter. Shouting out our new kids on Soc Media harder than last staff did

Why is that not a violation?

Didn't say his name

You can innuendo all you want. No direct mention or @, and you're pretty much good to go.

 

[gocraz4dasu]

The first thing I notice is that he has a good frame that will allow him to really bulk up. I like the pick up solely off of that and seeing how we are razor thin at DE.

The last staff did this as well.

Thanks for the clarification.

 

[BKCuse]

never this aggressively. Old staff would reference a home state or something that alluded to the kid but Asil is straight up making predictions about on field play and calling him "This guy" lol

I love it!

 

[orangencpolice]

I like the 6'-3" but the 200 lbs is a bit lite, however he is lightning quick.

He will fill out. Look at Chris Slayton.
