I mean, isn't this a pretty big give away.  Unless he's trolling, which he doesn't seem like the type.

Maybe not trolling he's clearly doing his best to keep people guessing. Would be odd to tip his hand that clearly when they have such a tight lid on it otherwise.

The interesting possible tip to me is the B Harris doctor emoji tweet that he quickly deleted. (If that is related to this, someone might need to take away his twitter login)

Not expecting much. I hope we make it happen bc he would be our best DL recruit. I dont think our current DL group in this class is anything that special. Lots of very solid prospects and we should get some good production out of them, but none of them are war daddies. 

Jaray Bledsoe fucks, his ranking is solely depressed because everyone's nervous about him qualifying and staying eligible.

When have you ever seen a recruit do anything other than blatantly misdirect on Twitter right before an announcement?

His 247 page says PK is his primary recruiter.

Those are useless. They just put PK because he’s the position coach for edge rushers.

Signing quality players that we can develop is a good thing. I'm sorry that you don't like high 4-stars.

Is this based on the composite or your opinion? , On3 has way better rankings than 2/3 of the composite, and they’d have him as like our 5th best DL/edge prospect. On personal opinion, I’d say he’s around 4th or 5th.

I mean holy fuck, I read that reply and had to go back and double check our past classes to make sure we weren't hauling in multiple 5 star DL every year...

I think he and Tapp are difference makers. Tapp is probably 50/50 at best to sign here. I think we will be doing good to bat .500 on the rest panning out. Finkley is basically tailor made for PK's defense. He would be one of my favorite gets so far in the class. 

Then you've got Abor who isnt coming here without us getting very competitive on the trail. Which is possible. But that would knock Tapps out likely. Basically, there's only one way Finkley, Abor, Tapp, and Wiggins end up signing here. We will be doing good to get two of those and that would make me feel better about the class.

Bear Alexander is likely a non starter. Kid's recruitment is a complete mess that most dont want a part of and aggy will go all in once they whiff on their pie in the sky guys. They can put him next to Demas on their ledger.

On3 definitely has some disparity. I wish they'd launch their fucking shit yesterday. I want to look at team rankings, etc, and they haven't even updated Tapp as committed to us yet.

Back to disparity, it's funny. They have Finkley rated barely better than Derrick Brown as an Edge prospect, but on the interior they have Ross ranked so much higher than anyone else. I can't wait for their full functionality to be launched.

Not that I believe he's picking Texas (or believe he isn't), but It's so obvious he's playing it up. I don't care what type of kid anyone thinks they know he is, he knows what he's doing here and is having fun with it. This is text book.

If we land Finkley and get Guilbeau back we would have a 267.39 score which would currently put us at 3 in 247 team rankings with 22 commits

 

With just Finkley we're at 262.35, still 3rd with 21 commits.

 

If we remove the kicker and long snapper that puts us at 265.97 and we'd be 3rd with 20 commits.

 

If we remove kicker, long snapper, and Guilbeu still 3rd with 19 commits at 260.53

Removing the long snapper and kicker probably gives us a composite average of 92+, maybe closer to 93 if Finkley is factored in.

Class average if you remove the specialists.  Then add in the two new possible commits.  Then add back in the specialists.

The Bama On3 mod has changed their reporting from this morning.

Feeling a little bit better about things this morning, will post if I hear something that changes that good feeling but right now, still leaning RTR

Justice Finkley announces his decision between Bama, Texas and Colorado at 5:15 ET.
Sources think Finkley will be picking Texas as of noon on decision day.
He's done a good job convincing folks otherwise but it will be a surprise now if he chooses Bama.

This is how Aggie talks about our Dline recruiting. What a way to expose yourself.
