[C-Bow]

Prattville (AL) DE prospect Rodney Thompson just took to Twitter to announce his decision. More to come on this one.

beat out a D2 and NAIA school, a 6'1 DE?

Maybe Stock is getting guys he knows won’t jump ship after a coaching change lol....

 

[MTBig Blue]

This shouldn't be anything new. For quite a while, we've been beating out NAIA and D2 schools for players.

Dude is linebacker sized playing DE?

I hate it cause it seems like we're bashing the kid, but is this the level of recruit that gets us closer to Marshall and FAU and gets us ahead of WKU?

perhaps he is being recruited as LB. Good lateral movement / quick off the ball. Schafer would have had to sign off on him.. Let's not downgrade the kid. He wants to play ball at D1. He got it.

You're right, it just seems like we need to be fishing in deeper waters right now. A profile like this (no FBS offer, only limited FCS offers) seems to be more like a guy you'd go after in January.

Maybe we get the kid before he blows up.

Not bashing the kid at all, just talking about the staff and how they are recruiting. Getting easy targets with no fcs or fbs offers only NAIA and D2.
