maybe when they actually watch the kid he will too. 247 has him as a 3 star

the coaches have gone after some pretty high ranked kids, someone must have tuned them into a kid on a bad team in a bad league for them to see him enough to offer him.  and bad leagues in florida is all relative when you are talking schools that size. he has a nice cut back and out runs he dbs he is playing against.

we dont have a rb who can make those cuts  right now.   highlights also tend to be big plays not the 3-5 yd gains where he uses power.  saw this in a Miami site

Pierre has a good balance and power with speed to break long runs (not take it to the house but good for 20 - 40 yd chunks at a time against FBS Talent he avg 9.1 YPC), but just as importantly he has good hands coming out of the backfield. He will also throw a few decleating blocks as well which is rare for a running back that is the best player on his team. He supposedly ran a 10.9 sec 100 meters as a sophomore and has a 3.5 gpa so grades won't be an issue.

these are some of the FL schools that play at that level Lakeland, Tampa Plant, Viera, St Thomas AQ., Columbia, etc. that he made all state against.

he had 1000 yds thru sept.. then had 300 and 2 tds on Oct 16 and 315 and 3 tds last week so thats 1700 yds and 21 tds with two games left this year.   the team cant throw at all so he does everything.
