New Commit

Joking aside it does make me feel a little better that Banker had eyes on him. But not a trend that can continue.
I've learned not to initially react to a kids ranking or judge them by their offers. While he certainly doesn't have a who's who offer list, he does have a lot of schools after him. UTSA and New Mexico aren't all that different from the schools we typically recruit against.
He's a Safety prospect from Texas. I'd like to see some film before passing judgement.

Here's some Junior season (2020) tape on him. I'm not an expert on grading film, but the kid clearly hits like a D1 safety. Pretty fearless in that regard.

I always hope for a Will Derting type of unheralded recruit when we're a kids only P5 offer.
Hey...it could happen!
Hey...it could happen!
8mm? Lol.
Surprised there was much film being shot in the old Caribou Trail League back then
That Banker likes him is the reason why I like the player. Plus, because how things were last season where coaches and other people could not get out and see players, there are probably several under the radar players that in other years would have been noticed.
No, I saw Derting in HS. He wrecked kids.
Grays hits harder than Derting. WSU better fight to keep him. His film is unlike any Ive seen at the safety position. He just drops kids. Why wrap up when they fall down immediately?
When I write that WSU will have a hard time landing a Hybrid safety that can walk down and essentially be a linebacker….
This is Dickert reading my posts and saying to himself “I will show that asshole the type of kids I can get.”
Get a NG and Im in.

This guy is a "please brotha, please " tackler. His film screams Div I. It's gonna take another 4 for him to be considered for the job. Did you see where his linebacker at Wyoming might be the third linebacker taken over the last two years? Maybe he has an eye for talent. Now they have to continue to land them. If he can do this with transfers also....you have a "thing" going.
I’m not sure how this kid will pan out long term or if there’s some baggage tied to him that we aren’t aware of, but it’s always amazing how many of these types of kids slip through the recruiting cracks. Every MWC school has several kids like him that make you wonder, wtf did the P12 schools not see in him?
Wyoming survives on finding kids like this. My hope is that Dickert has an eye for uncovering talent like this. He’s going to need that eye in order to succeed here. Give me 11 kids like this, and if nothing else, I won’t have to worry about my kick coverage teams like I was last weekend.

The hybrid safety in the 42 is one of two pillars of that scheme. It is a really hard player to get because they are in high demand. Kids that can hit like a freight train and run like the wind blows don’t grow on trees.
This is a kid that makes you stand and cheer. This kid makes other kids tough guys too. Watch the film. He is clobbering guys. The #1 safety in the nation doesn’t hit like this.
Glad to hear you say that. I'm not a film expert, but this kids tape is explosive. Guys like him are the reason I never went anywhere in football. He lines up 10 yards off the ball and you hope they don't call your number on a bubble screen.
Let’s be honest. You never went anywhere in football because guys like him???
Insert joke about your lack of DNA here.
Insert joke about you being soft here.
Insert joke about you being slow, weak, dumb here.
hahahahahahahahahahaha
Oh, trust me. I meant what I typed. I went to a 4A high school, and without question, I got scared out of football. I graduated at 149lbs. Our linemen weighed 250lbs+, and in 1985, roid rage was real.
Lack of DNA? Yes. Soft? Yes. Slow? I was fairly quick, but at 149lbs, you have to be the fastest kid on the field. I wasn't close to that. Weak and dumb? No. Played baseball for 14 years. Very low risk of injury standing in the outfield.

“Fasted kid”…. at 149lbs. yes you were. Not weak? At 149lbs??? You just proved my theory of you being dumb ahahahahaha
I can see your coach now talking about you…. “And here is CP. He is our strongest kid. I know he looks small at 149lbs. and he doesn’t eat for days, but trust me, he can stand in the outfield for 14 years!”
You're not wrong, but this isn't 1985. I'm a gym rat now. A beefy 165lbs. If we cross paths at Martin Stadium, you'd be wise to steer clear.

149lbs was small in 1985 too.
Imagine deriving one's self-worth from having played HS football. Al Bundy and Uncle Rico approve.
