I think someone could gift you a hundred dollar bill and you'd complain that it wasn't 5 twenties.

Give me a team of blue collar players who needs a team of prima donnas. Blue collar players with raw talent can be coached up to 4* or 5* over four years.
I'd rather have Alabama's roster. We'll play your blue collar vandy/Uk like team and win 10 out of 10 times.

You are right..more often than not, character is followed by work ethic. Most times, lack of character is followed by lack of work ethic. Sounds like we got a good one this time. Great pick up.
Have you seen your posts. Pitiful.

Muschamp has already said he loves HS QB's who can play other positions for other positions.
Its funny Roderick's offer list looks a lot like Jaylin Dickerson who also played some QB in HS and who will play a lot as a true freshman, potential 3-4 year starter, not even top 25 in state of NC by rivals last year but has shined in the spring.
I love this pickup and the fact that Clemson was starting to recruit him as a RB in a tight class for them numbers wise, is another sign this is a huge pickup and a underrated player.
Everytime i see an updated picture he looks bigger then last time, seems to be putting on good size

Strangely enough after Muschamp does the evaluation and offers, that all of a sudden other big schools offer. The other schools are using our coaches work ethic to save them work.
Not sure how a kid who obviously must have high enough personal character and academics to get offers from Army & Air Force deserves to have anything about him considered "pitiful".
Guys, when we look at a kid's offer list and see Wake Forest/Citadel it's ok for us to not be impressed
Those schools offer 5 stars as well, well Wake does anyways, so that downgrades those players to?
Cane Bay is not a regular stop for alot of schools, and RJ has picked up a lot of offers quickly.
Duke, Georgia Tech, North Carolina and North Carolina State are among the 22 schools to offer.
Clemson has not offered but started recruiting him on Tony Elliott's radar and they want him in camp for further evaluation.

His recruiting ranking is partially based on the fact that he plays quarterback but translates to something else in college unless he goes to Georgia Tech or Navy or something. So recruiting services say "he isn't a big time quarterback" and schools are saying "where COULD he play for us?"
I have seen him play several times. Exceptional athlete who could very well be a real find for us. The big question becomes how he transitions to safety. I will say this... He plays quarterback in an option team and is used to constant contact.
Not getting too deep into how WM is recruiting, I like how he is doing it thus far. Guys from winning programs (winning is an attitude and an expectation) who play multiple sports like wrestling and basketball (speaks to athleticism) and most of the kids seem to be pretty good off the field too. Will it translate to W's? I think so, but time will tell.

Exactly since he has been here if we offer first. Other schools come running.
We got Dunta Robinson out of Athens GA because we offered him first. Based on some of the "logic" around here, we should never offer a kid unless Bama offers first.
The sad thing is that most of them do understand that ratings aren't guarantees . . . they just ignorantly choose to ignore it. They run from common sense like it's a disease.
