Maybe having this Baylor kid will bring in some WR help

RE: New commits? "The Family is exploding tonight" CBC's twitter
Well, to answer your points, DD. I don’t think that it’s that we don’t recruit good players. We don’t play them all at once. For whatever reason. We redshirted Farrier, J Palmer, and rarely played Tehjaun Palmer when they are all better than RaJae, Rudolph, Ryan Davis. The biggest issue we had was that nobody besides Shropshire could get open. Luckily, Prince picked up the slack as the hybrid TE(god bless you, Craddock. He’s paying off more than as TE coach)
Then at running back, we are constantly biting our nails when McBride goes down, like we know we have nobody decent enough behind him to keep our running game going which is vital to our success.
QB, for the longest, we worried we didn’t have a guy behind TJ3. Luckily, Hop stepped into that role. There’s a big drop off behind Hop and we’ve(Vincent) fooled around and not recruited like we should be. So, all though our offense sucks. I think it’s pretty obvious that Clark is responsible for Zeno.
Anyhow, y’all can keep twisting my words, but the point stands that we havent signed a metro Birmingham player out of HS to scholarship at QB, WR, or RB in 5 or more years. There’s been some really good ones and offense is our weak link. We are scared of local media outlets posting “____ ____ picks Indiana over UAB and Ole Miss” or “____ ____ picks Tennessee over UAB, Louisville, Ole Miss, Miss State” when in my opinion it does more for our recruiting for recruits to see UAB included in local players top 5.
Why are we the winningest team in Cusa over the last 5 years? Cusa sucks and we play good defense. Nothing more than that.

Looks like he had other offers from UTSA, Liberty, Boise State, East Carolina, USM, WKU, ODU, MTSU, FIU, UConn, La-Monroe and Jax State. So I guess those are our current peers we beat for him.

Add #18. Iverson Hooks. A local Skill player. Can do it all on offense.
https://twitter.com/HooksIverson/status/...13667?s=20
Which probably means we put him on defense…
107 Carries for 1,009 yards with 12 rushing touchdowns.
46 of 72 passing for 1,057 yards with 16 Td passes
9 tackles with 2 Int

Interesting guy. His measurables make him look like he shouldn't be in FBS ball at all. Fortunately, he hasn't gotten the word. He's just a football player and did everything except sell at the concession stand

He reminds me some of Jermaine Brown, who was an undersized high school quarterback, and was not that highly recruited.

He looks like a Jermaine Brown clone. Elusive, runs bigger than his size.

Wright will definitely have a decision to make. He probably projects as a 4th round possibility now. Could he rise up to 1st or 2nd with another year of college? Dunno.

If he’s a good bet to be a mid round pick and make a team, He should go. The money is in the second contract. The sooner you get there the better. Give up possible security if he moves up, vs an extra year of max earnings
