If we can somehow add:
Shammond Cooper
Moses Okpala
Maurice Massey
Iran Henry/Joacheime Price
Keith Randolph
I think we would have a real dang good class. Just fill in the rest with 3 stars from Texas/Florida and California

So it it sparkplug-type backs for us now? That would be convenient since we already were recruiting them even though we were theoretically looking for bell cow bruisers.

McGee was the one that said he wanted bell cow bruisers and he gone. No bell cow bruisers in Rod Smiths O unless he has speed to go with it like Mendenhall. Kid could end up being a slot/ bubble screen weapon. He looks fast.

Under. It just doesn’t seem like we have momentum.

Plus Lovie’s style tends to be the “go home, think it over, be sure, then commit” type as opposed to PJ “Timeshare” Fleck.

So I can see some kids taking a week or more even if they WANTED to commit.

Hope I’m wrong though.

Kyron Cumby, welcome aboard the LittyvILLe O&B train!!
Maybe Lovie and staff grow him to be the second coming of Darren Sproles.
You never know!

In 7 on 7, “cumby threw up at the line of scrimmage just before the ball was snapped, caught a touchdown pass on a corner route and threw up again.”.

Gotta love the grit

His next commitment will be his third. He's the type of recruit you don't consider "in" until the LOI is signed.

He would be a huge get, IF we could keep him. But to be fair, didn't he commit to Iowa State twice? So I am not considering his next to be his 3rd.....unless he commits to Iowa State again.

I do wonder how the Massey recruitment is going to effect Fabian. If he commits and Fabian goes to Minnesota, then Massey decommits...

I'd still take the Massey commitment and have Corey hold on for dear life. Helps when we are getting a group of them in one area
