Austin and Quay are going to be huge recruiters for us, and they are both highly underrated (future NFLers).

Agreed. Both are very talented and flying somewhat under the radar. Very excited to have landed both. GBFO!!!

Wow, I had read that they were both overlooked but I didn't realize they have that kind of potential.

It's an opinion but one I truly think has some substance to it

First post here! I like this kid's film a whole lot. He has a very high motor and never gives up on a play till the whistles blown. Plays a bit straight up but that's something He can fix this year or with about a week with Mr. Stripling once he gets to Knoxville. Good get IMO!

247 said that two SEC coaches from other schools that recruited Smith felt he was an NFL lock and was top LB on their board.

What's up Ford

Man, with all due respect, you can't just say that. Hell, we can't say for sure that consensus, sure fire five star talent is future NFL talent. And that's not at all to take away from Picou or Smith, I'll say the same thing about McKenzie or Willians. Also, you can be a hell of a college player and just not make the league. Don't put that on them.

Ha not quite! 5'7 with a 2.2 GPA! No sir I am no Ford.

No pics! I would like to imagine it didn't happen.

you know what, now that you put it like that I agree 100% with you!



...I mean hell, the weight of "Go Fight Win's" internet forum prediction (read: opinion) is enough to create more pressure than humanly manageable, causing a complete meltdown on the field and inevitably the destruction of both of their careers k: :good!:





edit - don't take me seriously, i'm tired, grumpy and just giving you a hard time. I agree with your sentiment that undue pressure shouldn't be placed on these guys - even by a guy with Gucci Mane as his avatar

Bout a minute fifty if I'm sober enough. So never a minute fifty.

Stripling is very good Dline coach. He just needs kids with a high motor, and he can mold them.

 

[31VFL]

Has he always been the #12 SDE on 247? I have seen a few people say he just made a big jump.

 

[VolDango]

Goes to the swim move often. He has a nice swim, but it won't always work in college. Seems like a finesse DE, which by no means is a bad thing as a pass rusher. Just needs a college weight program and to be coached up. Nice player!
