James visited ND for the USC game and he already has offers from UM and MSU.

I'm not going to comment on how good he is, because frankly i have no idea, but ideally WR's should be taller. I know there are exceptions but most top end WRs are taller, hopefully this kid hasn't stopped growig

 

[notredomer23]

he was mesured that way as a sophomore or even a freshman so he will most likely grow more. hopefully 6 feet or taller.

 

[GoshenGipper]

I'm guessing those were his numbers from the summer camps he went to, so he still has two more years to grow in high school before he hits college.

Plus it's not as if there haven't been successful WRs who have been under six feet ...

Wasnt Jerry Rice like 5'11"?

i'm not saying there haven't been good short WR's i just prefer taller ones on the whole

The taller the better...successful short receivers are few in number.

The taller the better...successful short receivers are few in number.

especially when they drop or bobble every ball thrown to them.

 

[GoshenGipper]

I know I personally have always like throwing to big guys better. It gives you a greater room for error as a QB, and you also tend to develope confidence in them where you can just put the ball out near them on a crucial play and you know they'll go get it.
