But Coach Sanders up a bit and he’d make Emmitt look pedestrian. Exceptional lateral and explosiveness. Dosett would “leak” through the hole then explode up the field. Seeing the field and letting the game slow down. BGW If Sanders had Emmitt's lines all rushing records would be untouchable. It is known. He might even have the G.O.A.T.'s overall touchdown record. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he ends up at Clemson. I hope he picks Clemson. That gives Miami a better shot at landing Knighton. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is to say, if the claim is that Lloyd is as good as Bowman, that Lakeland's blocking was better than Dematha's. That might be pretty basic and obvious, but if you ask the Jeff Fisher's of the world, they won't even grant Lakeland was better than Dematha. Despite the dramatic difference in both record and result with a common opponent.🤦♂️ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no one here and everyone over there. You ran to where everyone is.

CG played a good half vs Central but then was slaughtered 48-21. STA led Central after 3 quarters. CG also got crushed by Milton. Chaminade lost to Deerfield Beach, which got beat by 32 by STA. But, there's no doubt that many still can't help themselves with being infatuated with the teams with 20+ DI recruits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badrouter Posted April 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 Bowman recently was clocked at 10.55 in the 100 meters at an FHSAA event. Chris Rainey's personal best 100 meter time, per athletic.net? 10.60. So, Rainey had a bit more "cat quickness", but can't claim a better 100 meter time. For a back pushing 200 lbs and was seen running through tacklers for STA, 10.55 100 meter time is BLAZING fast. As a 16/17 year-old junior in HS, he figures to be able to improve upon that time should he so desire. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Kurkjian Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 Lakeland's offensive line was solid, but Bowman made plenty of yards after contact, and his ability to finish runs with authority sets him apart from other backs that may have his speed or even be a step faster. When you combine a kid with his physical traits and overall toughness and ability to will his way past defenders, you have a pretty special player. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badrouter Posted May 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 Fresh off a 10.41 100m time, Bowman committed to Clemson today, in a mild surprise. While you can say any video announcing a decision by a kid in HS is automatically dumb, I think this one is pretty good. I imagine it would be difficult not to like the kid after watching this.

Bowman commitment video Nah things have been looking that way for a bit. Ehhh nothing new. We've got a couple solid backs, but hurts these kids want to follow trends and not start them. Can't blame a kid for wanting to play at Clemson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's a bit surprising just coming from a bit of a Gator pipeline. At the same time, a lot of Lakeland's guys were interested in Clemson but I'm not sure Clemson was super interested. Zipperer may have been the only one with a legit offer, and even then I'm not sure. I will say that video has a feel of "this is a done deal". Although for all we know they filmed two endings lol.

Perine and then you have the young stud Damien Pierce (who's a stud). Then Davis, and a bunch of other new guys...In fact I would be surprised if we don't have a RB transfer out before the year starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Kurkjian Posted May 4, 2019 Report Share Posted May 4, 2019 We are at the point now where committing to Clemson shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, pipeline school or not. After what the Tigers have accomplished the past few years, they can basically be in the conversation for anyone in the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but who the hell were they when they stole top tier studs CJ Spiller and Sammy Watkins out of FL? They've always gotten studs out of FL somehow. Even when the big three were much better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've always gotten studs out of nowhere. This is true. Talent was never their problem. But when the product on the field is this good, the "tier" is a step up.

badrouter Posted May 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2019 Clemson is as good as it gets now. But I do think they have had some good fortune in getting there. Relatively easy conference schedule. And then they've gotten some good breaks to get into a couple of playoffs. Can't forget seeing them lose, at home, to an unranked Pitt team, in November and turning to my buddy and saying "they're done". And he said "nope, they're fine". They dropped maybe one spot or none after that loss and then went on to win the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
