Kind-of a strange offer at this point. We're his only P-5 offer. Other offers: Central Ark., Jackson St., Lane College, and Memphis:

Marlin Odom, Troy Trojans, Cornerback

Marlin Odom is an Athlete from Lucedale, MS.

Agree about the offers, but his film is very impressive. Also he listed an offer from UAB on twitter, which while nothing super special, is another FBS offer.

Trust in Fran and Erob

 

[SanDiegoCuse]

Maybe a PWO

 

[orangenauburn]

Maybe a PWO

Also going to need bodies at some spots

 

[Libero2]

We found time today to give an offer to what seems to be a potential diamond in the rough type, today, while hosting 20+ recruits on what is our biggest OV weekend in like a decade?

our staff doesn’t sleep at all, do they?

Curious how Fran is going to approach the PWO's? That should be very interesting.

 

[OR!ON31]

I like this kid's film. I am sure Fran has plans for him, in whatever capacity he sees him contributing.
I'd imagine this may be more long term than immediate impact considering all talent level being infused.

Wrong. GREAT OFFER!!!!!!

 

[dasher]

Wrong. GREAT OFFER!

I believe you. You wouldn't say it unless it truly was a ...Great Offer.

Our staff sleeps like Chuck Norris. They don't sleep...they wait.

“I was an under the radar guy” - Fran Brown

“I was an under the radar guy” - Fran Brown

Yeah, I seem to recall Kirby Smart saying that Fran had a lot of latitude to pick out stud athletes who are under recruited. Maybe that's the case here.

 

[rrlbees]

DB?

 

[cusefan88]

DB?

Feels that way right? With Ross, Hornsby, and the transfers etc at WR.

 

[PhatOrange]

DB?

Definitely. Maybe a backup plan to the FL kid.

 

[qdawgg]

Fran is known as being able to identify talent. I never believed the hype thrown out by people of the last two staffs, that they were geniuses at finding diamonds in the rough. Or that our bottom of the ACC recruiting rankings didn’t mean anything.

But if Fran thinks someone is worth an offer. I’m all in.

 

[BillSU]

Definitely. Maybe a backup plan to the FL kid.

Wonder if we're still involved with this kid? He just jumps out of film as a player!
As it was already mentioned, if Fran offered him is because he sees something worth extending .

I know Coach E Rob is following him on Twitter.

 

[SanDiegoCuse]

Not announcing until February 7th.

 

[Libero2]

Given that we more or less just got involved here, I’d say that is good for us that he is signing later. More time to work on him, assuming he in fact is a guy we want after the dust settles today
