3stars or less we have that start on the fb team


Jul 14, 2016, 9:31 AM

On offense there's basically the winner of the Hearn/Morris battle at RG (both 3stars) and Renfrow (a 2star stud I might add). I don't think we even have a guy in the 3 or 4 deep (let alone 2-deep) on the depth chart at RB or WR that's less than a 4 star.

On defense, there's Jadar Johnson at safety, co-starter Nickle/SAM likely in Wiggins who was a high 3 star (his speed was likely the only thing keeping him from being a 4-star) and Kendall Joseph at LB (3-star). I think that's it. Everybody else is a 4 or 5 star.

Staff does a good job of finding and developing some hidden gems, but the team is definitely stacked with talent.

Tankersley was a 3-star I believe. And not to nitpick, but I believe Hearn and Morris are battling for LG, not RG, but I may be wrong. You're very correct. This staff has done a great job building this team.

Yes you are correct. It's LG. Crowder will likely man RG

Forgot about Tankersley as well. He was considered a very high 3star.

Our coaches are really good at knowing who they want and getting them. I trust that a lot more than some bozo in an air conditioned office rating kids from film or however they do it. I imagine precious few of those have much of a coaching track record either. I think "ratings" are just something to give the masses something to blather about.

Tankersley was a 3* as well.

Now on the Thorpe, Nagurski, and Bednarik Award watch lists. Also a 3rd team All American.

3* R just players that need a redshirt

to get ready for football. The ones you mentioned have already passed that time in their careers.

Don't forget,Wiggins,and Edmond are two that Mike wanted to bring with him when he came from NCS because he had already been recruiting them heavily.

You're forgetting quite a few people...

- Guillermo at C was a 3 star
- Gallman at RB was a 3 star
- Leggett at TE was a 3 star
- Dorian O'Daniel will be the starter at SAM most of the time, and he was a 4-star guy
- Marcus Edmund is currently the starter at CB, and he was a 3 star
- Tankersley at CB was a 3 star
- In fact, the only player on the 2-deep at DB that was a 4 star is Mark Fields. This, along with inexperience, is why DB is a concern again. I don't think we'll go back to the days of 2011-2012 where teams were throwing all over us, but we didn't really replace the talent we had with equal or better talent that could play this year. That's mostly because we had a big DB class a few years ago, and a lot of guys left early. Had so many of them not left early, we'd be saying the secondary was the strength of the team.

Guillermo, Leggett and Gallman were all rated 4* by atleast one major recruiting service.

Taylor Hearn definitely doesn't look like a 3 star. Can't understand why he was rated that low.
