Perine, a 3 Star Phenom

[Ancient Reptile]

Mobile Press Register reports that Florida commit Perine is one of the four players from whom the Alabama Mr. Football will likely be chosen. He has already made both the 7A all state team and the Super All State teams. The fact that Mac was on him early gives me some hope that Mac can evaluate talent. Also the fact that one board still has him as a three star gives hope that the rating ser vices aren't always right.

Thanks AR … love the news you scoop.

Lies. He sucks, he's only a 3 star.

Isn't Perine the guy who worked so he could buy a bus ticket to Gainesville so he could camp? At that camp he earned a scholarship?

If that is correct, you can give our staff credit for recognizing talent, but they likely wouldn't have been on him otherwise. Reminds me of Grossman's recruitment.

Not bashing the staff, but the kid deserves the credit for getting after it.

Does this kid get any PT this coming season or is it assumed he redshirts?

If true, that's a level of character and work ethic I'd like to see in every Gator!

Hope this guy turns out good for us. Definitely a hard worker.

Good news. Thanks for the update.

We want him! This is one of those 3 stars that kills it and becomes a solid NFL player.

You and T REX have got to be the most predictable posters on this board.

Suffering from a contact high?

I think so. Hard to go through a season with 3 guys.

I'm not sure it's a given. One of the freshmen last year had a bad case of fumblitis. If that isn't fixed we could see Perine in the fall.

Who?

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Just call him Lamical Ingram, future Heisman.

 

[T REX]

He's a 4 star on Rivals

You knew Ingram came in as a three star?

His cousin is the RB for OU that has been pretty good in his career. This kid has torn it up in Alabama 7A which means he has played well against good competition. I think he is going to play this year and add value. He is also been solid to the Gators since making his commitment even though Bama came calling later. Seems like he is a classy kid, with talent and a good work ethic.

Oh... and just because he made his own way to camp doesn't mean the staff has to give him an offer. You can't just show up at camp.. you still have to be invited or every HS player in the Southeast would "show up". He wouldn't have gotten invited if the staff didn't see value.
