'26 NC OT Jabian Shabazz (Tennessee commit)

[benholt06]

We only took 3 last year. I could see us taking 5 this year.

Edward Baker

Plus Blair, Shabazz, and Lee Smiths kid.

I think Gray is a gamecock. I mean, if he wants in you make room. But feels like a pipe dream.

Smiths kid feels like a “we’re gonna be at 105 soon so let’s take some local loyal projects who will take years to develop” type. Formerly PWO types. Similar to the legacy safety we took.

This makes sense. Only thing I’d say is I don’t see us taking 3 tackles (4 if you wanna count Smith). I think we need 2 interior and 2 tackles, and I like the Smith idea or a kid similar to that.

Look at this position group when trying to find out where we are putting our money the next couple weeks. @Jackcrevol

Darius Gray too please! Would make the oline class better than the Wanya/ Darnell year

What’s the date?

Shabazz is down to a top group that includes Ohio State, South Carolina and Tennessee and will announce his college commitment on July 11.

I feel like Faizon being 20 min from this dude might be another thing that helps getting him here

56 OVERALL player on ON3….YEP!

 

[CAVPUT]

Are we excited about this guy?

Nope. He's a 4 star recruit. We don't go after those guys.

 

[Go Fight Win]

Our OT class would be = Ohio state if we land him

 

[Glitch]

He's wearing a cowboy hat like Trey Smith famously did at UT and he's also pointing to himself in the VOLS gear.

Seems like we have quite a few commits/targets who have major differences in their rankings between 247 and On3 for some reason. Could just show that our staff does a really good job on their early evaluations and the rankings haven't caught up yet.

Osenda: 5 star 4th ranked OT (247)/3 star 59th ranked OT (On3)

King: 3 star 52nd ranked WR (247)/4 star 10th ranked WR (On3)

Albert: 4 star 28th ranked DL (247)/3 star 117th ranked DL (On3)

Shabazz: 3 star 46th ranked OT (247)/4 star 6th ranked OT (On3)

Have to think all those guys are due for rankings bumps at some point which would really boost this class.

Osenda: 5 star 4th ranked OT (247)/3 star 59th ranked OT (On3)

247 is the superior recruit ranking service. I trust them.

King: 3 star 52nd ranked WR (247)/4 star 10th ranked WR (On3)

On3 is the superior recruit ranking service. I trust them.

Albert: 4 star 28th ranked DL (247)/3 star 117th ranked DL (On3)

247 is the superior recruit ranking service. I trust them.

Shabazz: 3 star 46th ranked OT (247)/4 star 6th ranked OT (On3)

On3 is the superior recruit ranking service. I trust them.
