Wake Forest Football Recruiting

there's a punter in the Dr Pepper Fansville portal right now.
 
I was surprised that Wake was recruiting a punter in the 22 class, considering how many years Mora has left. I would have expected one in 24, who would spend a redshirt year behind Mora and then take over in 25.
 
Clemson is hosting a bunch of recruits this weekend.

A good way to add insult to injury would be to bring a few of them to Wake along with the Division Title. However, I have no idea whether Wake is recruiting any of them.
 
Excited about Eli Hall, even if he is not a new committ. THey play big boy football in Shelby. Lots of really solid players have come from either Shelby High or Crest.
 
REALLY Hoping we hold onto Demond Claiborne and Wesley Grimes. The Blue Bloods haven't stopped recruiting either one of those guys after they committed to us. Both would FEAST in our offense.

https://247sports.com/Player/Demond-Claiborne-46108983/ --- breakaway speed. Could slide over an catch balls in the slot, all around great back. Probably the best we'd have in the RB room by his 2nd year on campus. I want to say I read a stat that he was scoring a TD every 4th time he touched the ball through the first 7 or 8 games or something. Dude is electric. I've had a bad gut feeling that we could lose him in the final days, but hope I'm wrong.

https://247sports.com/Player/Wesley-Grimes-46103999/ --- criminally underrated. Would probably be a top 250 player if committed to a Bama or ND. Has been absolutely KILLING it this season and in the playoffs. I feel pretty good about Grimes keeping his commitment.

Eli Hall is going to be a force. Has the size, the IQ, the skills. A year in our program, lifting and eating right, and he will be a gamechanger.

Another guy I'm excited about is Andre Hodge. Kid has high level speed and looks to be underrated. I think we got a steal here and we obviously need as many playable defensive backs as possible. He fills a need.

Can't believe I didn't include Zamari Stevenson in my last post. Zamari is another elite athlete. Plays pretty much every position in HS, has excellent speed, and seems like the kind of kid we will do very well for us. Another playable defensive back in a couple of years. https://247sports.com/player/zamari-stevenson-46117028/

I love that Hodge and Stevenson are 6'1 and 6', respectively. Good size for DBs to combat some of these crazy big ACC receivers.
 
Agreed on Claiborne and Grimes. Those guys were absolutely created for this offense.

The Blue Bloods have always flirted with WF commitments, but with KW# blowing up and all of the points WF has scored, every skill position recruit that commits to WF is going to get extra attention this year.

It's all fair play. I hope we are after unsigned commits.
 
In a touch of irony, wasn’t Walker also a very late flip to us?
