OT Matthew Anderson [Nebraska- Signed LOI]

[Thanks_Tom RR]

I wasn't arguing with Warrior.  I was conversing.  I was surprised to find out Walker weighed 300lbs.  And it must have been a very bad 300lbs if they said he couldn't be that and play OL.

No problem. I was just adding some specifics to the conversation. From Duval's perspective, you are right that it was bad weight, or in Duval's words, "just adding mass to the car, which your engine has to work harder to move". I think it would be really educational and interesting to hear Duval and Ellis have these conversations.

247 has him ranked as a 3 star .86 as of today.

That's a hell of a start

That's a hell of a start

My thoughts exactly.

My thoughts exactly.

Just outside the top 25 in the state of Louisiana.  That's a big leap.

Wait.  So this kid is good now. Bring him N! (Sarcasm...not directed at you)

Amazing what happens when Frost and Co. offer someone... Places start actually looking at him and rank him.

I agree, and unfortunately can believe it. Hopefully this is something they are proactive on going forward. 

Thanks for that article RR.

And didn’t you say he was awful since he was unranked?

And didn’t you say he was awful since he was unranked?

In your head? Probably. In his post? No.

You might be right, I refuse to look it up. But he has been all over Frost recruiting like it or not. One of his reasons have been the unranked card.

Just checked back, i was wrong, he didn’t say it about this recruit. I think he would even admit he did question someone though recently because they were unranked.

I questioned the offer to an unrated player this early in the recruiting cycle.  And I stand by that.  

I also acknowledge that clearly they saw something before the services did.  I hope he’s great.

Here is example of recruiting services watching what P5 schools do and adjust rating. They didn’t even evaluate him till the Nebraska offer caught their eye.
