    Mullen special was offering tweeners that were too big for one role a too small for others. Not fast enough, not bright enough, …. 250 OT is too light and could take 3 years to put on needed weight

    It's no exaggeration to say this one would be a "big-get" eh EoW?
    wow, 6'-8". That young man could put on another 50 lbs and still look "svelt" lol.

    I like the idea of "plucking" one out from under LSU's nose and keeping Louisiana in play for a few "cherries".

    I like the Scouting Report comments from 247. Jones is just a percentage point away from four star status. He'll be a great addition to this class.

    We will take any decent OT we can get, not that we have a lot of choices in this cycle

    Miami TOS:

    “Florida will get an official visit from Samson Okunlola this coming weekend, which is a big deal down this final stretch of the cycle. There is reason to be confident in where Miami stands considering how long they’ve been leading in this recruitment but this is the time of year where things get muddy. Billy Napier and Mario Cristobal have been going at it on the recruiting trail and another showdown between the two Sunshine State powers is taking shape. I was getting close to Crystal Ball territory on Tuesday but wanted to hold off ahead of an important weekend with Okunlola making a decision about what to do. I’m going to wait out this Florida visit but as of Wednesday afternoon Miami is still very much alive in this recruitment. I’ve heard multiple times that mom and dad are fans of the city of Miami and are both on board with the Hurricanes if that’s where Okunlola decided he wanted to go. I think Miami is very much alive ahead of a Dec. 15 commitment but this weekends trip to Gainesville is obviously monumental in terms of how much things sway.”
