I mean look at his offer list.. Kinda speaks for itself. |

| Sound like The DJ Hunter prospect a few years ago. Or maybe he got caught up with some hoodrat friends. Maybe a good kid with horrible associates which it sounds like. Was it DJ Hunter from Ohio shooting paintballs at people? | |

Kinda speaks for itself. | I'd like that to be true, but it just isn't. Those aren't real, commitable offers. Otherwise, he'd already be committed to one of those schools. He's a good player, he's SEC worthy, but he's not some world beating talent that we're going to get for 5 cents on the dollar. If he were that good, other elite schools, and not just us, would be taking a chance on him too. | |

Pretty sure you never did anything wrong growing up. No I didn't steal anything either but I know you may have taken a hit of alcohol or something. If you had gotten caught does it make you an alcoholic for being an underage drinker? | |

If there is a history of this, See ya later! | |

I believe he is a take, but on a short leash, unless we can get an equivalent prospect. | |

| He stole from players lockers on a recruiting trip. Don't invite him here on a recruiting trip. | |

If anyone has a different reel that would show me what the hype is about, it would be appreciated | He's good just not as dynamic as I expected him to be. I'd still take him though. | |

Bernard Hopkins a world champion boxer was convicted of armed robbery when he was a juvie. He's never been to jail again. Guys mess up sometimes you can't just give up on them. | |
