On scout, he’s listed as a favorite for 'Bama.

If we got him instead, it’d be a pretty big coup!!!

Nice.

They will have to do it the old school way. International students can’t do NIL deals as it would void their student visa.

Hmm…he must be good then? Initially though he’d be a “project recruit” like CDH 2019 recruit from England, James Faminu, whom I NEVER saw play, and only remembered because he just entered the Transfer Portal yesterday. Don’t think it was reported anywhere lol

I seriously doubt, jmo of course, that some of the Power schools that already offered, consider him a project. Those schools would say – " I ain’t got time for that ". :upside_down_face:

Edit: too many Great P5 have offered so the film on him must be excellent.

Well, I meant a “project recruit” for us, but on 2nd thought, if really good P5 progs are making offers, then yes, there must be something there.

Kinda wondering how he’s considered a 4* if most of his competition overseas must’ve been subpar compared to what I’d imagine you’d find in the States.

this guy would melt in the south, while i’d love to have him, his best bet at success is minnesota or michigan
