On the block you all mentioned that he launched the defender, he had his feet planted. Nice that he clobbered the guy, and maybe he is so athletic that he never misses, but IDK, I kind of like someone who is blocking moving their feet. It was the only negative I noticed in all of the film . . .

Really? What high school RB knows how to pass protect? Actually what HS RB actually even attempts to pass protect. The least of my worries would be his pass protection. That's something that can be learned easily.

From the article:

Rarely does a recruiting commitment come out of the blue like this, but James’ commitment is similar to another Texas product now on the Irish roster: cornerback Jalen Brown. Brown pledged his commitment to the Irish almost a year ago to the day, also choosing Notre Dame without ever stepping foot in South Bend.

This is incorrect. Two years ago.

This impressive by Cooks. I am impressed by his running style. He reminds me of a bigger Jonas. Definitely a great pick up.

Wow, Sherm buddy, you are, um, a little too pedantic today, to the point of asholishness.

Kindness works a little better.

And my point earlier is that I only saw less than the best on one play, and that was that the play and the issue. Who would take giving a guy a 99.9 % is worthy of criticism!

Hey, Keith, sure it's been just a year? It's a bitch getting older, isn't it?

Just making sure people are paying attention. You are correct, I'm not as young as you used to be.

Fell off to 1100 yards, from what? 1800? That could be defensive adjustment, change in offense, or less than nagging minor injuries. With the spread, hell, it could even be a different quarterback.

I would rather things be the way they are and just leave it as Kelly & Cooks make a living off underated Texas talent

It ain't anywhere you haven't been preceeded, (by moi). As my father said: "Wait 'til you get to your mid-fifties, and when you wake up in the morning you feel like body parts fell off in the middle of the night."

I come back from a weekend of dragon boat racing to this? What in the hell happened? I never even heard of this kid and see him committed?

I read the first page or so, I know his size, ranking, etc. But other than that, can someone catch me up?

My work cpu blocks that hudl site and youtube as well. So I will have to check the tape later tonight and report back.

But from what I see in the pics I give him high praise. I give any recruit with a step fade high praise.

This sound crazy but the kids got wheels like Bettis. If Jamel sticks I will be very happy watching him put Michigan linebackers on their a$$

Why is he still not showing up on 247

247 B&G staff has to get a legit confirmation of JJ's commitment from their source with the coaching staff. Everything should be worked out very soon.

How do they get a "legit" confirmation about someone a coach can't speak about legitimately?
