There was a recruiting magnet here and it wasn’t CBN, but he did go with CBN to Florida. CMD needs that type of magnet. Hopefully until they can find diamonds in the rough.
A lot of these players look like good athletes with size but late development.
You would have to be blind not to see a dip in our recruiting. I like taking a few chances on some guys, diamonds in the rough. You can't build a program on it. Very concerning. Hope there will be some surprises.
Who was the magnet?Quote:

Juluke is a very good recruiter, kids don't go to a program for the recruiter.Quote:

His grades were not great, and he was supposed to graduate in 2021. He's now considered strictly a 1 or 3 tech, he provides you with no versatility to play any other position on the line. Thus, he wasn't highly recruited this year. He will be fine in the rotation inside with Wise, Hazard and Hutchinson. They are on another JC DL that has been offered by Baylor and others.Quote:
