Title: From the "It's worth what you paid for it" department....
Post by: JR4AU on January 24, 2012, 09:53:00 PM: This guy has us down for 3 of the remaining 5 star croots left on the board.

I think Kwon Alexander is a "fo realz" shot, and I'd take just him, and be happy.

Except for Eddie Goldman. I hope he's really wrong about him.

He's a sure-fire baseball prospect that could make money now. Maybe not big money yet, but at least some.

But instead he's going to play football at a school that runs a pro-style, "give it to the running back," offense? A school that has a junior quarterback that led them to a national championship?

I really could see him doing wonders at Florida State.

It doesn't matter who he signs with. I really doubt the kid plays the first down of college football.

I hate Bama as much as anyone, but compare both programs the last 5 years on paper. Look at FSU's consistent track record of underachieving the last 5 years. They are in the same boat as UGA to me but in a shittier conference (which makes them look worse IMHO). All world, MNC caliber talent every year.....but usually end up in the Independence or Liberty Bowl. No thanks.

Maybe, but he would absolutely thrive in Fisher's offense. They may be in the Poulan Bowl every year, but he would be the ACC Player of the Year, each one. At uat, he would be moved to WR.

Probaby right on the move to WR, but RWS is actually correct for once. This kid's future seems to be more geared to baseball anyway.

FSU = Starting quarterback from day one.
Alabama = Wide receiver by year two.

I guess it's whatever he is looking for. I just don't look too kind on most kids going to FSU and underachieving. I would not like that personally as a recruit right now. They don't develop worth a shit (aside from Ponder). Strange because most of them go to the pros and thrive (like UGA) , so the talent is there.
