Recruiting 2020 Recruiting Thread: Gervon Dexter gets 5th Star on Rivals

If they have break away speed....

I don’t follow this stuff as some of you, but what are Manuel’s chances of qualifying.

I realize we are trying to flip Tim Smith, but are there any others we are trying to add if he sticks with bama? I love our DT class (Dexter, Goods, and Brown). I'd like them to add one more though.

Strange IMO. Unless the staff doesn’t think that Manuel will be part of this class.

They do. There was an article recently that said he’s doing really well at his new school.

I happened to see Dexter up close at the Auburn game (we were sitting up from the recruits and he walked past us). That guy is one big dude - and I mean even compared to the other recruits. I suspect he could add 20-30 pounds very easily and you'd never notice it.
You analyze film far better than I ever could and can intelligently tell me about his skill set and how it translates on a football field. I can tell you that that is not a guy I would ever want to mess with and if forced to, I'd want to bring a lot friends along with me. I am really looking forward to seeing him in the O&B.

Insiders believe as long as Knox doesn’t pull his dick out this weekend Knighton could be in the bag. That’s a big IF with Knox though

Knighton is all in on UF.....he is waiting for them to green light and accept his commitment

The staff has still been looking at another WR to add - Poitier's name keeps coming up as the last WR in the class. I'm assuming they'd like to take a shot at Wideman, who's ranked much, much higher. They're both around the same size.

ok so why don’t people like the kid? He’s a top 100 guy high 4 ️ and it’s stealing from FSU...what’s not to like? His highlights aren’t bad either

 

[Mr2Bits]

For you all wanting insider knowledge, keep an eye on Avante Williams. Hes trying to make a visit this weekend and our chances of flipping him are about 90%



Xavier Henderson is also visiting and is leaning our way to pull the trigger this weekend



Mark is visiting as well and would be a take if he wants in


This is going to be a HUGE recruiting weekend.

Depends on his size. He's camped with 247 and Rivals. Both list radically different weights (175-180 versus 195).

Not too sure....I think its because we only really started to get in the mix as of late.....we are looking good though

I get that to a point...but there’s a reason he’s so highly ranked and his tape looks like he’s got great vision and a good cut move..

Thanks. It’s a real shame nobody brings recruiting news to this site. Way to pick up that slack

I’m really waiting to see how this season plays out in recruiting...does Dan sell that we’re just a few plays away from being a top dog? Or is it that we’re offering playing time? Or perhaps both...I’d say we need three top 5 classes to get to the top of the heap

Not saying they are going to, but if they all committed, our class would move up to sixth on 247. Perty kewl, huh?

After last years non-qualifiers do these recruiting services give any indication of their academic qualifications? Does it count to the number of stars?

 

[SeabeeGator]

At 275, isn’t he too big for our scheme? I thought we wanted 250-260 lb NTs. Maybe switch him to OL.
