At one time I thought it was between uncarolina and us. But, now of course it has changed to us or VT. I sure hope we get him.
He is suppose to announce today at noon while standing on the 50 yard line of the Asheville HS football field.
We really are tearing up the 2 star circuit
He is the most highly recruited player in WNC this year according to WLOS. Those recruiting services don't always get things right when it comes to player evaluations.
Well, then you also look at the offer list. No disrespect intended toward the young man, but App. St. and a handful of ACC offers doesn't exactly inspire optimism with regard to his talent level. I understand 5* OL don't grow on trees, but dang....
We aren't Alabama. We should be better than them. They spit their white trash state with another sec team. We should eat Clemson alive and be top 5 every year. Spurrier is probably the best offense mind in the country. He knows when a 2 stars is a 5 start in college.Oh, so that's the key to success? We need to go get ALL unoffered guys, or beat out Elon, S. Dakota St. and Gardner Webb for all of our OL needs? Got it!!
C'mon man.... You don't see Alabama doing that. Of course, we aren't Bama, but the point is, ODDS are in your favor when you recruit the caliber guys that everyone is after (not even mentioning stars).
That having been said, this kid is a Gamecock now, and I hope he becomes a star!! Welcome to Gamecock Nation big fella!
Stars don't apply nearly so much to OL as they do skill players.We really are tearing up the 2 star circuit
OL is the least of all positions that rankings matter. I will be happy if he decides to commit to SC.
Kentucky fan here. Randall Cobb was a two star and is having a great career with Green Bay. I'm in the camp that hopes the coaches eye for talent is better than a rating service.I know that centers are extremely difficult to judge as to how well they will perform on the college level and probably all offensive lineman for that matter.
Nobody puts down high school kids like FGF.Well, then you also look at the offer list. No disrespect intended toward the young man, but App. St. and a handful of ACC offers doesn't exactly inspire optimism with regard to his talent level. I understand 5* OL don't grow on trees, but dang....

Hope the kid doesn't read here. Jesus, people.I guess we can rejoice over another 2*. I do believe we will get another 3* before its over with
I agree. Go start your own board to post all negative things. We don't need it.Hope the kid doesn't read here. Jesus, people.

I swear, some of you guys are clueless as to what you are talking about when it comes to this stupid star business. Do you even realize that there are only 2 - THAT'S TWO - 5 star offensive linemen in the entire NATION. Nobody is signing 5* offensive linemen, because "THERE AIN'T NONE"(sic). There are only about 15 four star Olinemen that are even in our recruiting area. We are not going to waste time recruiting guys out of California, Michigan, and New York. It would be a waste of time and money. If we don't sign 3 star and 2 star linemen then we ain't signing any linemen. Is that what you prefer?
Rivals is a joke. According to Jim Baxter, the foremost authority on High School football in SC, most of the guys voting on this star business aren't even capable of evaluating talent. They wouldn't know what they were looking at on film even if "you broke it down for them"(quote from yesterday's interview).
I don't mind some back and forth discussion, even if it's negative, but posting something derogatory about a recruit is uncalled for. All these kids are to some posters are just stars.I agree. Go start your own board to post all negative things. We don't need it.

I know what you are saying but you are pulling out the 1/1000 guys. 5* guys get drafted at about a 60% rate and 2* guys get drafted at a 10% rate. Can a 2* be great, of course they can, but alot more of them do not
