2016 Football Recruiting Thread - Notes from NSD Press Conference and Reception

Parents don't care about Twitter. High character recruits listen to parents. If you picture Clawson with parents you will see why he succeeds and will in the future. A bunch of jock sniffing nerds is not even close to the sway parents have on where these children end up.
 
Update on Wake Forest commit Jaquez Williams. He was taken off the field with assistance. Benedictine Military...
 
Essang Bassey returned the opening kickoff for a TD on Thursday but it was called back by a penalty.

Cade Carney sat out last night with a shoulder injury.

I will be watching for updates on Jacquez Williams head injury.

Lukas Masterson has two INTs last night.
 
Emmanuel Walker had 10 tackles, including 4 sacks, in a 22-6 win over Woodland

Johnny Ray and Wando lost 40-35

Traveon Redd and Magna Vista lost to Jefferson Forest 53-20. Redd had 2 catches for 39 yards and caught a 2-pt conversion, and rushed twice for -4 yards

I don't really care how recruits feel about it, grown men using the internet to tell unknown kids where they should go to college is weird.

In the same way that it's weird to wear a jersey with a kid's name on it, or to scream at a kid who misses a block or tackle?
 
@ThisWeekFrank: Grove City tight end Brandon Chapman is out for the season with a back injury. Chapman is a Wake Forest recruit.

No bueno...
 
Man.....what a tough Friday night for our 2016 commits. Way too many losses and injuries.
 
Our TE recruiting has taken so many hits over the last year. Losing Bargas. Injuries to Bowman and now Chapman.
 
We need help on our Oline and pass rush. I love how Clawson addressed those in our 16 class.

Don't forget about Zach Gordon as well. Not really recruiting, but another big blow to TEs.
 
2 brand new Crystal Ball predictions for Sulaiman Kamara to Wake.

Vibes.
 
Been searching for some vibes all day. Looks like this is the place. Kamara would be a big time win for Claw and co
 
Teams with sturdy run-stuffing DTs win lots of games. Lots.
 
The unofficial he just took to South Carolina worries me a bit. The old ball coach would be the guy who fly under the radar and take our top d-line prospect.
 
What I have read is that the programs that have gotten him on campus have been disappointed with his measurables. I think it is more about his height than anything else. Having said that I think that Penn State's interest was legitimate, even if he was ultimately more of a backup plan.

I think Wake's competition at this point is UVA and Temple. The most recent interview that I watched with Kamara had him lighting up when talking about Wake. He said that the staff did something very special for him on his first visit to campus, but that our staff had asked him not to discuss details. He also said that he is daily contact with the Wake staff which tells you that he continues to be a priority.

If the only reason that he isn't at Penn State or UNC or South Carolina is that he is a couple of inches shorter than they would like I am fine with that.
