Jawuan Harris

Greenwood committed plus Miller and Ross and Richardson now Harris on the wish list. With just a few scholarships to give and many holes to fill certainly don't think they'll take them all, maybe no more than one or two additional. Interesting to see what they come up with.

I mean no disrespect, but I have to disagree with you. This kid just doesn't have anything on his Rivals page (haven't looked at a Hudl video yet) that sells me that he'll be a great prospect. He has a lot of offers but not a single one is from an SEC school other than us. The best offers on the list are Kentucky, Louisville, and Illinois (maybe add Pitt and Rutgers to that). None of the names that have actually offered him really stand out as showing that he is a hot commodity. Compare his sheet to Tavin Richardson's or Adrian Miller's and it definitely comes up wanting.

I am not saying that the kid won't be any good, but nothing on his Rivals page jumps out at me as saying that he is a real gem. If we get him then I hope he proves me wrong. I'd just rather do our best to steer clear of 2 stars that aren't JUCO.
 
Watch his Hudl, then.

Dude has above-average speed but where he excels is in his shiftiness, quickness, burst, and field vision. I am not saying he is Randall Cobb, but his highlights are impressive enough to warrant comparisons to both him and Timmons. Maybe lesser than Timmons or between the two, but the guy has moves and ability. Also seems to be able to make difficult catches, but then again, they're highlights. This guy definitely has potential to be a lethal weapon in our offense.



edit: dude is a Dorian Baker type with his phenomenal blocking ability. He absolutely lays the wood when he blocks. Also, he rarely goes down after first contact. The defenders have to make him stop- he churns through tackles and keeps his feet moving. How the Hell this guy only earned a 2* ranking while doing this stuff in Florida is beyond me.


INK HIM UP.

i dont think there are enough rides to take this kid. i think the offer is in case we miss on 2 or our other guys. i do like his tape though. he's one of those guys that if he was 2" taller and just tad faster, he would be recruited by everyone in the country.
 
I dunno, hmt, the last guy we said that about was Cobb...

He seems to have a good football IQ and drive. Both attributes that make Cobb so deadly. Neither will shock you with speed, but I wouldn't put him down for that.
 
I see nothing at all to be unimpressed with.
I say get 'em.
 
The guy plays for what is often one of the best teams in the state of Florida. And is one of the best guys on the field. Could be a steal
 
What I cant believe is how empty the stands are. My son played high school football in Florida and the stand were mostly full. St. Thomas with empty stands, Wow?
