Why did we not offer this kid??


Dec 4, 2013, 1:01 PM

Why did we not offer this WR, Debo Samuel? Reading reports, he will be making his decision on Thursday, and is a strong lean to South Carolina. I have seen this kid play in person, he is no joke. He lit up Daniel, last Friday night.

Sorry, I don't post on here much anymore. I will be honest, money is very tight with four kids, one being in college, paying off my wifes masters, and I'm going back to college. I can retire after 28 years, which is 3 years away, but I dont want to stop working. But, I had a day off, and was reading over the boards. Thought I would just mention this kid, since I saw him play.

has been filled with Kitt and Scott(and Priester in Prep school). Now they're after taller WR's like Bryant and Williams. Hopefully after waiting on Malone, we don't lose ground with Thompson as OSU is [putting the full court press on him.

Around this time last year, Pharaoh Cooper was a 2 star with offers from us and ECU. Just sayin...

Basically, some players are late bloomers, some don't have HS coaches that feed the recruiting services with film, etc. There are reasons some kids aren't rated higher as this point. Recruiting services can't get out and see all the potential players and they rely heavily on HS coaches sending in film of players.....Not that ratings are the end all be all. As they did with Cooper, our fans evened questioned the offer....until they saw his film.

Cooper is a heckuva player.

What are his other offers so far? Looks lighting offers. Not saying he is not a good one, just not highly recruited yet.

LOL! LOL! LOL! I'm a white dude, my sister and her husband are white, and both her kids are white, along with the oldest being only five years of age. BUT, I would be glad to take this kid! LOL!! AND..yes they do know what they are doing, never said they did not, just wondered why a LOCAL kid is not recruited more. Wow, people still get bent out of shape on here, by the replies I have received. Cant say that is something I missed, while not posting.

Dec 6, 2013, 12:52 PM

who we already have committed.
You are not currently asking why we haven't offered Bentley from Byrnes (similar in his crazy stats) because you know we have DeShaun Watson.

You are not familiar with our current WR commits and so you trust what you have seen with your own eyes over recruiting rankings.

I trust that our coaches have seen all of them in person or on film and have made good choices. We will see in a couple of years though.

NOt sure. We also lost an offensve lineman out of Hillcrest to UGA and he wanted to go to Clemson but got no offer.
