I can't believe this kid's only other offer is to Samford. Have other coaches overlooks this kid on accident or are they that stupid to look at his film and not be interested?? Craaazy.

 
What's great here is we are seeing this player based on his ability on the videos instead of stars.
Yes! this is exactly what I will be looking forward from years to come with Pelini's recruiting style...instead of Cally and his flashy :star :star :star :star :star recruit we'll have Bo and crew uncovering gems...this should be fun!

This is the best video that I have seen since Noel Divine's. Holy f*cking sh*t. Can somebody please explain to me why this dude is only a 1 star??
BAM!!!!....you got knock the f**k out!! that's the kinda guy we need in the secondary..forget about size..this kid can play :box

 
People need to calm their enthusiasm about this kid. Is he a nice prospect? Yes. But even if the guy did get in here, he is a project. He would likely be a ST monster, but anymore than that would be a question mark.

You have to remember, Vestavia Hills is one of the best programs in Alabama, so attention is not something he is lacking.

The one thing you have to know is this is a highlight reel. Yes, he brings the wood, but why does it not show more of his coverage skills?

Highlight reels always paint you a picture that they want you to see in a player, but sometimes they do not paint the whole picture.

I just saw BigWillie's latest post. I was wondering the same thing. We are seeing only the good plays he has made in those videos. How many bad plays did he make during his H.S. career? :dunno Thanks for the reality check, Willie.

 
Spartness, I hope no one gets it twisted that I am bashing the kid. I like Mason as a prospect, because I love any kid who is not afraid to lay the wood. However, for some to make it out like they wonder why he isn't a 4* prospect are going overboard.

He is in the heart of SEC country, playing for a powerhouse in Alabama. His only offer is Samford. That alone should calm everyone down a bit.

Really, I think of Wald as a taller (not heavier) version of Brandon Rigoni. Nothing wrong with that, because Rigoni was a stud on ST for us and brought a style of play we did not see from any player last year. But that isn't exactly someone I would consider a stud performer.

You bring up good points, It will be nice to see if this kid is the real deal and our coaches think he can be since they offered him.

The thing is, if he doesn't make a decision and soon he may not even get the chance to make that decision. ;)
