4* DE/DT Shavar Manuel commits

[LongTooth]

some good news after all the bad and meh info coming out of the program.

 

[LongTooth]

Wow...on Rivals he was the worst slider of the year. Went from 19 overall to 130th. Said he had a bad year. Ouch.

Coach Rumph will get him off his rump. Now we need Randy to get Mack in here!!

 

[Slug]

Wasn't this kid the #1 recruit for a while?

Back injury, gained weight.

Muschamp was probably at his school this year that would explain the bad year. He got some of that mustank on him.

I don't want anyone to think I am nitpicking. My initial reaction was this was a great get for us. Still is.

You don't see too many kids losing stars though on Rivals. Usually they gain them.

"Manuel has not developed in the way most projected. He still has a tremendous frame and an extremely high upside, but he carries some bad weight and was not the dominant force most expected him to be as a senior. He'll need to do some conditioning work if he's to reach his full potential early in his college career. Manuel is thought to be choosing between Florida and Florida State. He will likely land with the Gators. " -- Cassidy

It was hard to see that post coming.

Uh oh.....here T-REX goes again!

 

[T REX]

Sorry...hey I didn't even know until Reptile said something. Do you know how hard it is to drop 111 spots on Rivals?

Formerly 5 star but didn't play well this year.

His biggest issue this year was weight. He played around 20 pounds heavier than normal. He supposedly shed a little bit of that weight and played very well at the All-Star camp.

He's a great get

Our staff will whip him into shape. He'll be a good'un.

And to think his first post in this thread was a positive one.

 

[GatorJ]

JFC, he's a DE, maybe a DT. Good try AR. Keep taking the fiber and give it your best effort.

Nevertheless,

Thread title is wrong. He's a DT.

 

[Gatorphan]

I'm glad he chose UF, especially over FSU, Bama and the 20 other offers he received.

 

[T REX]

And to think his first post in this thread was a positive one.

I still think he is a solid get by Mac. I didn't realize he fell out of the top 100. If they can get him back into shape he should be decent.

Good job, Rex. Step slowly back from the ledge.

A stud DT is always a big deal.

No, no. I like LB better.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

OK, AR. He's a LB for you.



(It's easier than fighting with him.)
