Several publications have had him #1, but usually if he does not go SEC/B10 they downgrade. Great to have #1.

Unreal. Went from a 3 position athlete to the best prospect in the country. And Fritz saw it before anybody.

Fritz has the vision

This is the coolest part of the whole deal, imo. He saw him as a QB before anyone else did, and Henderson has stuck with him even after all other programs saw the light and started coming at him. Awesome.

And people still think the NIL era will be bad for us…:rofl::rofl::rofl:

This is an interesting observation from the article linked below:

“Now, Henderson must continue to keep progressing and boost both his awareness and vision as a passer, but he’s got a chance to be the next Lamar Jackson or Jayden Daniels with his dynamic movements and distribution skills if it all comes together,” wrote 247Sports director of scouting Andrew Ivins . “He should embrace the idea of a redshirt season, but his natural playmaking ability could be hard to keep on the sidelines.”

The number 1 recruit in the nation does not sit.

He’s gonna need to bulk up just a bit, but other than that, he’s gonna fine when he takes the field.

Does he replace Weigman, if Connor returns for 2026?

I agree with you x100. I had that exact sentiment today in the BB forum about Diane, discussion about whether he was #1 or #2 prospect, depending on where he committed. Someone didn’t like it. After seeing AP football polls over the last 2 years, I 100% believe this

I mean, it happens pretty regularly, but I wouldn’t expect it.

I imagine they’ll work packages for KH. He won’t be a starter his first year, but he’ll definitely be involved throughout the season. I always thought this would be the case even before his #1 rating.

Arch basically red shirted for 2 years. Guess it depends on the NIL.

Personally, I hope Conner comes back for his senior year and this kid can get stronger and learn the game.

No way…

He’ll be back up and get reps in clean up time and have packages for him…

Where will Carlisle fit in…?
