You don't turn away a offensive threat. If you can land Jenkins, Smith, North, Gibson, and Boyd, you do. No doubt.
With the exception of Meachem, I think these guys are a higher caliber than those you mentioned. Smith and Hannon didn't do a lot here. Part of the reason is that Harris and North are both big WR's. Add Croom to that mix....dang. That's a lot of size for a defense to handle. Some munchkin db is going to get owned.Itd be like the old days of Jayson Swain, Brett Smith, Robert Meachem and Chris Hannon!! Man those were the days...
Don't forget Harris.....not to mention we have Croom and Bowles that will just be Freshman this year. We are suddenly in pretty good shape at receiver. We also have Jacob Carter (he good) who is probably the most polished receiver we have at this point.
-VQWith Boyd, it's a wait and see game as in they will wait and see if he gets on the plane Friday for his official visit. Zach Azzanni was with Boyd and his family all day Thursday in an attempt to secure the official visit. People in and around Boyd believe he'll make the trip, but after last week, it's far from a guarantee.
We might be looking at Boyd as a DB or S. I think he wants to play WR and thats why he wants to go to WVU because they want him at WR with Gibson. He wants out of Pitt but has everyone telling him he has to go there. Its not just his mom but his friends and coaches are too. We have a lot of good WRs coming in already but Boyd has made a lot of jumps in the rankings after going to these camps. He played in a weak class in PA and won 4 state championships but with the rank going up after the camps shows his numbered weren't so high just because of the competition. He could be a back up plan incase Bell doesn't choose to play here. Plus the kid needs to get away from his Mom.

@pittcabe I believe so. Only student-athlete is paid for. Don't think coach is going.
