3 recruits that you feel most confident will be really good

[orangepassion]

I got Labrosse, Alford, and Thompson in that order

 

[310Pigpen]

Alford, Kinsler & Labrosse

 

[OttoinGrotto]

My top 3 'croots are LaBrosse, mini LaBrosse 1, and mini LaBrosse 2.

 

[CA Monk]

My guesses: Bleich (Hopefully Kirk Martin’s stepson), Wax (baller in the Doante Strickland mode) , Barron ( future Dan Conley)

 

[cusefan88]

Alford, Wax, Mahar

 

[PAcuse]

Motion to change the title to ‘croots not recruits.

I like your 3 alot. Alot.

I'll raise you.

Kinsler - I think as a DE he's a few years from seeing the field because he needs to add mass to his frame, but has the skillset to play earlier as a linebacker, imo. Watching his highlights I see a very explosive athlete and instinctive football player. He's got great initial quickness and is really physical at the point.

Barron - Not an exceptionally gifted athlete and really have no idea where he'll end up. Long, versatile frame though that moves well. Clearly a developmental guy that needs to get stronger before seeing the field. High IQ player who just competes and exudes the intangibles that separates good players from great players. He'll be a major contributor by the time he is done on the hill.

Tucker - Speed kills. And this kid is fast. Like, a level of fast we haven't seen. Exceptional burst and lateral agility. And not a physical pushover either, will run through contact and displays some toughness. Will definitely be on the field within the next two years.

Labrosse... great athlete with ideal size for safety

Kinsler... shifty, speed edge who is an OT’s nightmare

__________... our next QB will be a Heisman winner*









*Yep.

 

[Cusefan69]

Javontae, Alford and Labosse. While I think Kinsler is athletic, he is a shorter version of Richards and we have not found ways to take advantage of that. Until we do their talents go under utilized. Maybe a new DC changes that in which case Kinsler is 3a.

 

[Trueblue25]

Most confident...

LaBrosse, Lowery and Alford

 

[syrBossHogg]

I really like Alford, LaBrosse, Kinsler, and Wax. I feel like Hanna is going under the radar a little bit too

 

[PhatOrange]

JaVontae, LaBrosse, Tucker

 

[Forza Azzurri]

I got Labrosse, Alford, and Thompson in that order

Hans und Franz. Zey going to pump us up!

 

[orangepassion]

Alford, Kinsler & Labrosse

Was tempted to go for these 3, but wary of Kinsler having to put on 40 pounds. As an aside, wish we could the boards' predictions from previous classes and see how they turned out to this point. Anyone who finds any of them gets a free Like from me.

 

[bnoro]

Labrosse, Tucker, Thompson.

Thompson is getting slept on but if you watch his tape you see a high football IQ, a kid that can cover RBs out of the backfield, and a solid tackler. Exactly the type of kid you need to have a great defense in the modern game.

 

[SmilinBob]

Immediately: Thompson

In 2 or 3 years: Ilaoa and Wax

Labrosse, Tucker, Thompson.

I know they are pretty excited for him to get to su. I think he is perfect for us.

 

[CuseLegacy]

Thompson, Ilaoa and Williams.

 

[storange]

After a screening on You Tube, I’m saying Alford and Tucker are future All ACC. Pena looks impressive as well.

 

[orange_in_VA]

Bleich, Thompson, and Alford.

 

[smartman]

Kinsler, Alford, Wax (LB?).

Seems folks are disappointed in the stars/rankings and lack of QB and DT (although Ilaoa???). I'm encouraged if you look at the upside of some of these folks on an individual basis. Hoping we finish strong in February.

Go Orange!

 

[Nick44]

James Williams. Mark my words he will be the first 1000 yard rusher as a punter.

 

[cusefan88]

What I'm excited about is that I think pretty much all these guys will redshirt. Crazy to think how many guys didn't get that chance that probably needed it. Ruff, Coleman, Armstrong, Riley and then Conway and Dungey in 2018.

Cuse will get better the more freshman can redshirt and get that 2-3 years of development before getting major run.

Is Tucker faster than Jordan?

From the reported times I believe he is
