Happy to see him stay home, would've gutted me to see a home grown talent and the son of one of our coaches go elsewhere.

James's dad knows a thing about OL too

Not a surprise at all but still a very good commit.

You mean the same guy that fans wanted fired because he had to play guys that were physically underdeveloped by almost two years?

Shocking that KF had a more accurate perspective than fans. SMH

You mean KF, the guy who hired his son as OC and QB coach and who forced the AD to fire him even after repeatedly running the worst offense in the country? That KF?

Definitely needs to gain some serious weight… a few years into the system should get him closer to 300 pounds maybe 290 whatever position on the line he plays but he could be a gem

About the same size a Linderbaum and Pieper at their age.

I have no doubt he’s gonna be a great one! Plus going into his junior year in high school he’s got plenty of time to get to the college weight.

 

[rchawk]

If he's a 2028 recruit he is going into his junior year. That's not a bad size at all.

I still believe a '27 kid from Iowa is going to have a monster year this fall and get an offer.

Who we talking about RC?

 

[T. Kimball]

The next great center?

 

[HawksRule73]

The weight will come. I like the fact that he's already super explosive as witnessed by his nearly 60 foot shot put at state this year. That's damn impressive for a high school sophomore.

You’ve made this point about 100 times now. It’s ok to stop.

Nah, the majority of your still have no clue and continue to perpetuate mischaracterization.

And the point is for people to learn, so they can do better next time. The point is about fan behavior. So it will always remain relevant

 

[WeBeHerkin]

Coming to Center U.

Coming to Center U.

Careful now. Okie St. should have a hell of a running game this season with Audi Crooks at center
