Some early fun Bold P’s from Birm for this next class.
- OSU lands 5* OT Mark Matthews
- Lock lands 5* RB DGG
- OSU lands two in-state TEs (Karhoff and White), and assuming we miss Brock Williams.
- We land at least 3 guys out of CA again, including top DT Kasi Currie.
- We will land 3 of our top Edge targets.
- Lauranitis lands two Top10 LBs, including Cypher this Friday.

That would be a grand slam... SO it probably ain't gonna happen

Are McFarland and Jamier a similar style of wide receiver? If not, what are their biggest differences?

Brown is an outside WR. Whereas McFarland is pure slot. Both can absolutely fly, but Brown in particular has Elite track speed, 10.5 in the 100m.
In a traditional sense in a base 11P, your boundary WR (X) is usually bigger bodied - Jeremiah Smith spot. Your field WR (Z) has the speed to go over top - Carnell Tate. And your slot (Y) is inside and can cause matchup problems with short area quickness - Inniss/JSN.
For McFarland, what makes him so dangerous is not only can he be that typical jitterbug guy in the slot, but he also has Elite long speed to hit you over the top. I love Inniss, but he’s somewhat limited because he’s never going to be a 4.4 40 guy. McFarland ran a 10.8 100m as an 8th grader. Which is why he could be the next Tyliek Hill. With how much 12P we run, McFarland can still play outside. When Inniss plays outside in 12P, you’re somewhat limited with that vertical threat. Although JSN barely clipped 4.5 40, and he’s toasting guys deep in the NFL.

I'm sure Coach Lock is subtly showing this to RB recruits

Cypher had said he wanted to be a peer recruiter this class. He doesn’t have to look very far, and can focus on these 3 guys from his state that we want.
Teammate Top100 Edge Rashad Streets - has a top5 of OSU, Oregon, TN, Bama, and South Carolina. Visited for first time for the PSU game.
DT Nate Kamba - Was LJ’s first offer this cycle. Has an unofficial top2 of OSU and South Carolina. Visited us for June camp and for the PSU game.
LB AJ Randle - One of the hottest prospects in the entire country. Has absolutely blown up. Grew up an OSU fan. Visited us for the first time for the UCLA game.
