I don't think either will be a 5* as both have physical "flaws." Franklin is skinny.. super skinny. I think he is going to be incredible AND I think he will grow into his body, but the analysts comment on his lack of size frequently.

Ware-Hudson is a DOG and has dominated 1:1 in the camps, BUT he lacks top and speed, improving route running and has been questioned athletically. (or they say, if he can improve athletically). Ware-Hudson has also chosen not to test at the camps. This will further prevent him moving too far.

I think both will remain high 4*s (which is still fantastic) but both have flaws that will likely prevent them from being deemed 5*s this year.

By comparison, look at the 5*s like KT (man among boys, physically already developed, twitch speed, tests off the charts.
Another-- Foreman-- physically a man, testing off the charts, athletically dominant.

Just my 2 cents.

Troy Franklin - Friday
Jaylin Davies - 19th
Terrance Ferguson - Maybe the 20th
Xavier Worthy - 27th

Then a bunch of other top guys that we are in on. By the time it's all said and done, almost our entire class will be 4 star guys...it's just a matter of how many spots we end up having.

I am so curious about Tye Edwards. He is the BIG RB they are targeting out of Florida JC. He hasnt been rated and seemingly has no other offers, but apparently he is a must take.

Yeah, I watched his highlights the other day and I am surprised there isn't more buzz around him as a recruit. This partly might be because he has said there is no reason for any other school to recruit him since he is going to Oregon (or maybe he still has academic questions?).

He has really good speed for his size, his JC highlights show him being a natural pass catcher out of the backfield, etc. I am not surprised he reportedly had offers from Alabama, Georgia, etc. out of high school (some of the schools were recruiting him at LB/Rush End). Here are his senior season highlights on Hudl...

According to an old 2019 ESPN recruiting like, it looks like he had offers from: Alabama, Georgia, TN, Pitt, A&M, Oregon, etc.

1:09 :lol:

First time I've seen someone slow down while running into the endzone so he could level out an incoming defender. Nasty rb.

I love this type of back! Granted in his highlights he is a man amongst boys, but I like him! Tye Edwards of course. Does he have two to play two?

Edwards looks like a beast... Bruiser?

Stiff arm?

Speed?

Malicious intent?

Hurdler?

We can only hope!
