Great size for a TE, similar to Ballungay size!

Saw a reporter tweet saying prior to injury he was one of the most impressive players in camp.

Had a number of good offers coming out of HS.

Staff won’t be announced until after the teams their currently with bowl games end. Arnett is an Analyst for Ole Miss right now so you have to wait for their bowl game to finish, along with the rumored Ohio State guys for offensive positions.

All of the staff Odom took with him to Purdue weren’t announced until our bowl game ended.

Yeah our O line wasn’t exactly our biggest strength I would rather our kicker and some of our defensive players if given a choice but stability is good in any event.

I thought our offensive line was pretty solid. Wore teams down especially in the run game. They completely broke SJSU in the 4th quarter.

A lot of their sacks allowed were probably unfair to hold against them as hajj didn’t have the ability to throw the ball away and give up terrible sacks.

Sluka and Hajj were coming up in competition. He will be coming down in competition. If Mullen thinks he’s going to be a good fit for his system I trust him.

I see what you are saying. They took their On3 ranking and added it to the 247 ranking and divided by two and they modified their original ranking to give him the 3 stars. That seems to make for a fair ranking. I like that they do that.

That sounds like algebra.

In the link you provided, under where all the sorting options are, theres “on3 industry”, “on3 ranking” and “industry comparison” if you click “on3 ranking” it will show you the on3 rankings without taking other companies rankings into the equation. At this moment he’s a 90 overall 4 star according to on3 scouts.

I looked at his rating when they listed him as being a possible recruit for UNLV.

80% of the offense is DJ dribbling while Julian runs through off ball screens attempting to get open.

Not sure what you are looking at from the link I provided. Where are the 4 stars you speak of on this kid. They only show 3 stars.

I know about the other rankings and yes, I knew they were worse. But, people were talking about On3 so I was staying on context.

Now we need a couple of Ricky White clones

His schedule at Virginia was brutal.

Just his last 6 games went:

11/23, #13 SMU (L)
11/16, @ #8 Notre Dame (L)
11/9, @ #18 Pitt (W)
10/26, UNC (6-6 team) (L)
10/19, @ #10 Clemson (L)
10/12, Louisville (8-4 team) (L)

Yes, he lost all of those games, except 1. Yes he threw a lot of interceptions (13 TD to 11 Int). But he was also behind an O line that was shorter and lighter than UNLV's. He ate 39 sacks, which is 2 less than the 41 UNLV had this season. Except UNLV played 2 more games. I'll give him a chance. Behind a better O line, he'll make the plays we need. That being said, Mullen is far from done. We need 2 more.

As kids enter and leave the rankings change all the time. Next weekend after many bowl games and new entries it will change again.

So on3 has him as 4 star 91 ovr, they have him as the 3rd best qb and 25th best transfer. You’re looking at the composite ranking from all services. 247 doesnt think as highly of him as on3 does. The composite has him at 30th qb and 315 in the portal.

Our QB was not a passer at all!
He was serviceable for a few games but by the end of the season he had games where he was 5-18?!

I hope this guy is better, seeing how he was playing ACC ball instead of at Campbell or Holy Cross!

Click to expand...

He had two bad games to finish the season. Was otherwise good in the passing game.

One of the games you are using for your example he didn't have Ricky White! Or Casey Cain!

(Am I doing the exclamation points right?)

WarthogRebel said:

Both Hajj and Sluka had better stats before they arrived here than this kid. Probably because he played higher competition. Additionally - any way you evaluate it he throws WAYYYYYY to many INT's.

Click to expand...

They were in the FCS.

He was in ACC.

I think that plays a part in that.

Pitt, Syracuse and Mississippi all had him in for a visit so there's something there.

But the TD to INT ratio not great I agree.
