To be clear it has been said that we wanted to take 3 RBs this class. Hall and AZ:) are out. Akeem is in. Transfer is in. I think that leaves 1 spot. I hope we land both of these guys but feel that howard would pick another school if Sal commits.

I really consider Adams a '19 recruit as he won't be eligible until then. I'm assuming Jordan is out. Salahuddin is top of the list. If Dixon is qualified, he signs. We could still take Howard giving us 3 RBs for this cycle. I agree though that Howard may very well be Salahuddin's backup. I'm thinking we end up with 4 players signing on Signing Day leaving 2 schollies open to fill with a late pickup or two from the JUCO or Grad transfer markets.

The timing of the announcement is curious. Perhaps they wanted to wait and see what Salahuddin was doing first. If thats the case, then he's going to Pitt.

We can take both of them so this has nothing to do with Salahuddin.
 
Happy not to be waiting for Salahuddin. Obviously want him too, but have a feeling it seems to be trending Pitt. And I agree the timing is interesting, if you want to read into it that way.

Regardless I think Jarveon will be a beast for us down the road.

...alternatively, maybe the staff wanted to bring in 3 RBs [which seems likely], and they really liked this kid.

Salahuddin isn't announcing until signing day, so they probably didn't want to wait.

Doesn't Pit have two or three RBs that are 3* or 4* already?
 
Much better offer list than originally reported for this kid.
 
This kid is a BEAST and makes missing on Salahuddin (if we do) much easier to take

I expect Howard to get carries this fall for us

I don't know if I'd go that far, but if he's the real deal and does get carries, all the better.
 
He’s physically ready but the back is one of the more mentally demanding positions in dino’s system. I expect him to take limited snaps in non crunchtime situations and be a big physical playmaker by sophomore year. All assuming he doesnt redshirt which is certainly a possibility and to me a preference

Its Strick’s aNd Moe’s time still with an increasingly improving line.
 
Well i was wrong! Hopefully we have room for both!

Looks like my guess was wrong to. I'd thought he committed last weekend but couldn't find any confirmation so then I started thinking we didn't accept and put him on the back burner. Glad I was wrong. I was really impressed by the interview this kid gave his local news station, seems to have a good head on his shoulders. I hope he has GREAT career here.
