80 and I look nothing alike


You're right. 80 is much better looking!

I assume he is still coming even though Core 6 is not (He could ride with the Weishar's I assume). I think BK puts on the same pressure he put on Bilal. I really like him basically recruiting Baker as well, possible commit?

A) GB looks = 80 looks, (when he was 12) BOOM!

B) Isn't it nice to have so many players seriously interested in the Irish that we are fighting over who is the best, (among serious prospects.)

C) This new popular interest; anything to do with UA, field turf, or stadium enhancements?

...and recent, consistent success. Future looks bright. Love it.

It certainly doesn't hurt.

So your point is because at an NFTC camp or wherever they say he posted a 4.51 and you think that is accurate, fair enough. I don't. So you actually believe he is faster than Marquis Lee? I have watched a lot of film of Boykin as well as Josh Huff and Marquis Lee. Considerable difference, HS 40 times are pointless, IMO. Watch the speed on film and he doesn't have 4.5 speed. You reserve the right to your opinion I just take the other side.

The 4.51 might not be "accurate" relative to NFL times, but because they test everyone the same it's accurate relative to his peers. Sanders... who's a legit track sprinter... ran a 4.57.

So I think it's mostly a case of Boykin simply being "good" at running the 40 in a camp setting, which is different from the time being bogus.

Not much-

On campus hanging out with players and having a good time.

Will be at ND until this afternoon.

ND likely leads with the two Michigan teams being the biggest threat.

Visit's over. Per, 247:

Hung out with players, says he fits in well with them. Went over offense with Denbrock.

Says the visit helped the Irish's chances, but was asked that as a question so what else is he supposed to say.

Visited Missouri before visiting ND, and 'really liked it there', FWIW.

August decision.

Visiting Florida June 19th and MSU June 27.

Per Wiltfong, he likes us to land Boykin before the end of summer. Says his last visit is MSU on the 27th of June... so after that we'd be in the clear.

That's great news! Feeling like Boykin and Bilal are very crucial moving forward. My best guess to be at 16 before Rice would be add these two and Yoon. Still wondering about QB though. The more I think about it, the more I would like to grab one before next year. Though I like Henry better than any this year except the one that hot away.

Henry is definitely better than Barnett IMO. The only prospect that may be better is Rosen, and not even for our system.

Only thing that worries me is this is what MSU's WR depth chart looks like:

Watch the 2014 Rose Bowl..

But as far as the future goes, they've signed ONE WR in the past two years according to 247, and he was rated in the low 80s.

They also have two 'ATH' signed in the past two years, and even if both happen to be WRs, that's 3 WRs signed in 2 years.

Tons of early PT available for a MSU 2015 WR.

Maybe too much? From what I have heard it isn't fun if you're the only credible receiving target, against good defensive teams.

This is true. Ask Michael Floyd or Golden Tate. Look at how much talent we had in 2005. I don't think Shark, Stovall, or McKnight were complaining about not being the only viable target.
