Planning on visiting this summer. 4* prospect at LB

 

[anomander]

Could be something, could be nothing. Somebody did mention that he is planning on visiting Cuse at the end of the month. McKee would be an absolute steal. The kid can absolutely fly. He'd be a perfect fit in our scheme.

Ima make a big announcement later on

 

[Trueblue25]

This would be the icing on our hard-nosed Linebacker class cake.

 

[bnoro]

Looks like he's transferring high schools.

I feel like we have a good shot with this kid. We just got to get him to visit. Seems like our type of recruit, both in his play and what it seems he is looking for. Would love to get him.

 

[Dmcnabbrules]

Seems like he is waiting for Nebraska to offer, if they don't we have a shot IMO.

Would be a huge get.

If we can start picking off kids from MSU, Wisc, Oklahoma and Tenn...that's huge.

That top ten is alphabetical.

Gurus, any idea where we really stand? What are our chances at a visit here?

Any ideas how long McKee plans to extend his recruitment? Is this something he hopes to have determined before the beginning of his senior season? Or will this go right down to NSD? Or somewhere in between?

There's definitely over a 50% chance he visits. Whether we can land him is another story but you never know.

We already snagged two kids with Oklahoma offers last year ... plus pretty sure we have a pulled some with MSU offers too.

D.Kelly picked us over MSU this year...

Between last year's class and this year's potential class, it looks like Shafer will be unleashing the vaunted 2-7-2 defense!!

Any chance he comes for an unofficial this summer? Or is that 50% purely for an OV during the fall?

i believe he's looking at an unofficial sometime in august

 

[PhatOrange]

newspaper article says that McKee initially reached out to Syracuse. He also puts Syracuse inside his 'top 5 or 7' schools. Sounds to me like he's pretty high on us.

 

[bnoro]

Will be very tough to beat out MSU but I hope we can

 

[anomander]

I think we have a legit shot. Pretty confident we get him on campus sometime after coaches get back from vacation. That's all we can ask for, but with our success once we get kids on campus I wouldn't count us out. If the visit goes as well as I expect it will I have no doubt we could be a top 3 school for him.

 

[CuseLegacy]

Looking at his twitter feed he tweeted this out yesterday...

Nice!

Now assuming we only take one more LB, what's the staffs preference? Fox or McKee?

If both wanted to come here we'd take both. I think Fox would be the preference just to make more waves in Jersey though. They both have excellent offer lists.
