thanks LeMoyne
 
even in deep years I don't think NYS sends much more than 20 kids to D1A programs. It's still very early in the recruiting cycle, so if a kid already has a 1A offer, even from a lower tier program I don't see a problem with labeling him a likely top 20 player and don't necessarily think it means the NYS class is weak this year. SU just offered a DE from Brooklyn that didn't even have a UB offer yet - so he just went from being a kid I had never heard of to being a top 20 NYS prospect - maybe even top 10.
 
This is why I always love the Tomcat NYS talent analysis - because when I hear that SU or some other school offered a NYS player I can check back and see what the perception was at the beginning of the year before all of the offers started going out. See what the buzz was before all the shools did their evaluations and started making offers. Was how I had already heard of Poncho Barnwell and Omari Palmer last year before they verballed.
 
good news about WW - somehow I missed any discussion of him having his grades in order and being a part of next years class - really hope he ends up at SU as was once deemed likely upon qualifying
