I can't psych myself up about Cager. Seems like a one-trick pony based on his stats. Unguardable on an end zone fade and doesn't seem to do much else. When you have 4* HS WRs available I have a hard time wanting to bring in a jump ball artist who doesn't know the offense for one year.

Especially when we have a 6'8 and a 6'7 TE on the roster that can fill that role.

Agreed. When you have two stud 4 star recruits to choose from, I don't see how taking a mediocre player who apparently has no hands from another school makes much sense.

And not just ANY other school...but the much-loathed University of Miami.

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA *THUNDERCLAP*

Njoku, Houston, Parker, and MPM to finish the class if I had a choice (I don't)...Bivens as the back up if any fall through

I'm not on the Starks train, he seems to be "anyone but NU" and could have been N earlier if he wanted to be so not sold (just my opinion)

I’m pretty much in line with this here. Definitely would like to see Parker and Njoku. I like Bivens as well but I think I’d rather see Houston on the roster instead.

We really could use another true corner in this class IMO.

Yeah. Wondering if either of the true corners they're looking at really wants N or not. Obviously you take a guy like Houston or Bivens over dropping down to make a fresh reach offer on some guy we haven't heard of at CB.

No commits from anyone yet either. Makes me think there might be some very specific way the staff is looking for the dominos to fall.

Are we out of the running for DJ James with him taking a trip this past weekend to Eugene? Hopefully Scott can change his mind but I bet he saw all the bells and whistles that Oregon offers so that might convince him to go there. Bill Moos need to hurry and start working on getting funding for our facilities that needs updating ASAP.

He's already committed to Oregon.
