So, what’s the story with us being so high on him but low rating?  He has other P5 offers. 

 

Not really sure to be honest.  He seems to have put up stats for one of the best teams in Texas against good competition.

 

He seems to just not really have been completely evaluated by the ratings companies yet.  He is a three-star on Rivals but they don't have him ranked at his position yet.  This holds down his 247 Composite rating as well.  As far as I can tell, when 247 does their Composite, if the recruit don't have a ranking (just a three-star rating) on Rivals, they go into the Composite as a .8333 from Rivals.  So that drags their average down.  247 didn't have him rated either until a couple months ago.  So I wonder if both have just given him more of a temporary rating since he started getting offers but haven't really gotten him a full evaluation.

 

I don't know if that's the case but it seems plausible.

OhioSt sniffing around but already have 2 WR in the class and just got a Fong CB for another highly rated WR.

Has the best QB in the country throwing to him. Helps the highlight reel!

Actually, Ewers missed half the season recovering from a hernia surgery.

Visiting this weekend according to his 247 page.

His highlights remind of Westy. Mainly because he's white, though.

This guy could be the next Wes Welker

[Mavric]

Only other visit he has planned is an unofficial to Ohio State.  Not sure they're really interested.  Likely he's going because of Ewers.

 

Taking classes this summer so he can graduate early and enroll in January.

 

Originally planned to decide by the end of the summer but now says it could be sooner.

 

He'll be , imo.

Interesting ... it actually encouraged me.  I like to see better teams looking at our guys.

Except the part that if he gets a commitable offer from them he won't be our guy.

Well sure ... but the sky isn't falling.  We [the board] believe we are on the uptick and getting who we need [that is what I'm being told] to compete for championships.

 

I'm not in agreement with that view ... but various folks shame you for acknowledging the wrongs, errors and shortcomings [as one sees it].

If you think this class is getting what you need to compete for a title…pass the crack
