'14 NC RB Elijah Hood (UNC Verbal)

[greyhammer90]

Everyone is always saying "he reminds me of this guy or he reminds me of that guy". I don't know about all of you, but he reminds me of Elijah Hood.

Too short.

Can I get some backup in the "holy crap e hood" thread on 247 my fellow BGI members

sorry to hijack Elijah's thread, but I love the Clarett comparison....smh at how good that guy was and how he just flat out blew it.

on a brighter note it looks like we may have possibly found our leader of the golden army...

This may be the most salient point. I agree with TP and you all about how much EHood reminds us all of MoC on the OUTSIDE; but I maintain that the most important part of landing EHood, (even though the package on the outside is par excellence), what is in the INSIDE, with EHood is what makes the deal, Lucille!

Changing the tune a bit, let's go with the premise that after the coaches get Hood's commitment, they see how much of a leader he is and how passionate about ND he is, and they say look, these are the guys at the top of our list at every position, go ahead and get them on board if you can.

Of all of the recruits Hood has reached out to, I'm surprised he hasn't tweeted at Braden Smith or Bars? Two elite OL who ND seems very in it with. I mean, being a RB his biggest interest would be OL, but he's only hard after Quenton Nelson up to this point, at least on twitter. Maybe the staff has a silent from one of them? Or maybe I'm just bored at work, lol.

I think we have to consider the possibility that he is reading this forum. It seems that he has only tweeted the guys that are trending up or have been updated on this site lol.

 

[irishff1014]

Super excited the way he has jumped on board and becoming another recruiter for this team. Good to have that kinda presence in this class.

 

[Kak7304]

I think Hood has been tweeting other recruits nonstop. He's definitely stepping into the role Jaylon filled last year.

 

[Redbar]

Nice help on the recruiting front Eli. We got our Man QtoND.

I just love hood's enthusiasm...he's got to be feeling pretty damn good about the hogs on the line that will be blocking for him in the future!

Welcome to the ND Family Elijah

Good pickup BK!

 

[gkautz10]

The kid is tearing up the recruiting trail. He may be a better recruiter than Diaco and Alford combined!

One of the best drives I have ever seen from ND was our last drive of the USC game Rees's freshman season. We got the ball and ran left, right, and up the middle almost the entire length of the field for the touchdown and you could feel USC and the crowd dwindling as they knew it was coming at couldn't stop it. I am envisioning some more of that.

Maybe best is a stretch but most enjoyable to watch.

Oh yes, the Hughes drive. Great stuff.

Is it a requirement to have that kind of hair in the south?

Bieber fever.

Looks to me like another Anzalone, recruits who change hats with their underwear!

Not a requirement but it is everywhere in the schools. That stupid hair, khaki shorts, plaid collared shirts, and stupid boat shoes....

 

[GBdomer]

First off if you rock flow you always part it to the right.

Don't want

Frat hard, young man.

Cary Grant agrees with you:

But you're definitely in the minority.

 

[Redbar]

Tomlin looks like a poor man's Danny Woodhead, prefer what we have, kid is all ND, but I would pass. He's not cracking the three deep and we don't have frats, so there's that.

The khaki shorts and boat shoes are good. I rock those all the time in the summer, but with a mohawk, not Bieber hair.

Also, go with a nice v-neck instead of a plaid shirt. B*tches love v-necks

I knew I liked you for a reason.

Also anyone else not read this was a joke and be like who the F is that?

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Bogs and JFK disagree with you, LOL!



When I was a kid, all the experts said that parts from the right to the left were to help right-handed mothers facing their sons. So mama's boys. My mother made sure that my part started on the left, that was independent and secure! LOL!

Just throwing this out there...but sometimes when I take a picture on my phone, it flips the image automatically...This Tomlin kid might actually have the part to the right...Will have to ask his uncle Mike to confirm it though...

And if it was backward, the print in the picture?

Is anyone else thinking he is trying way to hard to recruit? I looked at his twitter and if I was Clifton Garret or Nyles Morgan I'd be like damn this guys annoying.

Thought that with Kyle Allen last night (that is I could see another recruit finding his efforts a little annoying). Oh well, not going to fault his hustle. I'm just glad that he is so committed to us.
