metafour 4,958 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I'm assuming he is the younger brother of Andrew Buie who we recruited heavily a few years ago. Signed with WVU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Andrew was going to commit but Mason did before and stole his spot. Looks like Jalin might secure his early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger1992 999 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I'm not familiar with either of these kids, but it would be hard to get too excited about a 2016 commit at this time. It's certainly great to get commits two years out, but for a high school kid two years is practically a lifetime and a lot can change in that time.

SuperNova 0 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Buie kinda looks like De'anthony Thomas in the highlights. Norton looks like he plays with an attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well just watch the highlights and see what you think. Yeah, I watched them and their damn impressive. Don't get me wrong, it's great to get early commits, especially from studs. It can help build momentum for the recruiting classes with other highly sought after commits. It's just too early to bank on it, but definitely nice.

PikesEagle 168 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Jalin Buie Profile Highlights Like watching a water bug at the lake. Runs with more power than what I thought he would at his size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFDTiger80 790 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I watched Jalin's film. He will fit in our offense great. He is so young right now, but has crazy moves and nice speed. Like others have mentioned, his power is surprising for his age an size. Jalin is a Freshman now, right? That is impressive. I hope he can handle being committed to one team for a very long period of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey 16,553 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I don't get excited over two years in advance commitments either. However, if a future star is going to commit to somebody today it's better us than another school. He can change his mind but so can we so it costs us nothing to be ahead of the game. What kind of football factory have they built at that school? A 6-A public school in the middle of Miami wouldn't normally have that many D-1 prospects! Recruit much?

AU_Twisterman 83 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Just based off highlights, I like his vision and instincts. He doesn't always dance around, as he gets north/south for the tough yards when he needs to. His quickness and lateral movement is way up there. Speed is not elite, but it doesn't have to be. It'll be interesting to see how his body develops over the next two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
