Hudl Highlights

Wow. Haven't watched Arden's film, but from his picture he has got a huge frame and right now is very lean. If you had shown me a picture of him standing up, I would have thought he was a wide receiver.

With that said, he will DEFINITELY bulk up in any D1 program, but definitely in Ryan Russell's program.

Looks like another developmental recruit

... Reminds me of Rashaad Kennion from last years class. I believe Kennion was an inch taller and roughly the same weight. Both could be dominant once they fill out some.

Kennion was listed at 6'6" 228 lbs on 247, 6'6" 225 on rivals, 6'6" 225 on ESPN

you're probably right, i was going by memory, but still...6'6" 225 and 6'6" 215 is pretty similar

[Dixie1860 27]

I think Key is more like 225lbs now. And I believe he is considered a USCe lean. But I could see Rodney getting in on this kid. Wouldn't be shocked if he has some "in" with AK in some way. Not saying he does in this case, but Rodney has some long tentacles.

I may be wrong but if I remember correctly, Dee Ford had a similar build when he was a Freshman.

[mcgufcm 4,096]

Dee Ford is 6'2". He was slight at around 190 lbs, but he wasn't similar to this guy.

I will spend the next 3-4 years at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA with my boys @WGreen_20 @B_Quatro4 @D1MANOS etc

Set an official visit for the 16th... This is huge.

Also big is that he cancelled an OV to UGA to come to Auburn.

His visit is for the 30th from what I've seen. Which is key since it's the last weekend before NSD

So he's going to USCe, but coming to visit us anyways? I'm confused.

Sometimes players who have given a verbal commitment decide that they have made the wrong decision and give their commitment to a different school.

[mcgufcm 4,096]

Alternatively, sometimes players who have given a verbal commitment decide to take their official visits to consider their options or confirm their initial commitment.

Kids these days. Can't make up their mind on anything.

Don't want to sound too cynical here. Sometimes they go to be recruiting for the school they have committed to. Also they just figure a little extra attention is kinda cool too.

Yeah it's not like they're making a decision that not only impacts them but also their family or anything.

I see you raised my sarcasm with your sarcasm!

I think the "kids these days" post was actually on the last page.

I don't see that tweet. When was it?

[The Plainsman 948]

He has been a South Carolina commit for some time I thought? But we are working him late with the new staff.
