***2018 Recruiting***

[Warrior10]

Kansas gets another commit and is now up to the #4 class in the country.

Out of curiosity, which site are you seeing that #4 recruiting ranking for Kansas? I checked rivals and 247. So maybe they were 4th and dropped as other schools gained more commits?
(And are you sure you didn't accidently link to their BB class?)

They were 4th when it was posted but had a 4 star and a 3 star decommit and other schools jumped them.

Crazy that he's one of the top players in the country after most recently being a backup.

Some speculation that with Roberts, Miller, Jefferson, and Simmons (All RsFr or younger) at the position that we may not take an ILB this class.

Isn't Miller a DE..? lol

Not in the 3-4, he is a linebacker.

Not in the 3-4, he is a linebacker.

Right, so typically DE's in a 4-3 are more OLB in a 3-4. Why does Miller factor in our needs for an ILB?

He is around 235 right now, the website(huskers.com) lists him at 230 but I will say he gained a couple pounds and put him at 235. In the ideal weight for the 3-4 defense prototype thread that is around perfect weight for an ILB with a few pounds to gain in the summer as well. He is also the perfect height at 6'3. Another note is hopefully he can recover from his injury because this kid is a really good player.

Because last week it was announced he's slated to play ILB when he comes back from his toe injury.

Josh Banderas' brother, doubt he gets a scholarship. but will probably get a walk on due to the elite talent we will take in this class.

He also visited K-State.

This 18 class seems to be trending upwards with CBs for Yankoff, Bookie, and Allen. Yankoff is the lowest of that group at .9317 on 247C. To put that in perspective, we only had 2 players from last year's class that were higher ranked than him (Blades, Lindsay). And we already have Cam and Fuller who are rated in the .94s.
