Donavan Williams - Do these guys know something?

Post by pulitzerdave » April 9th, 2020, 2:16 pm

Latest projections from Rivals.com on Donavan Williams -

https://n.rivals.com/content/prospects/ ... st-reasons

Bottom of page, 5 of 7 analysts picking KSU with one picking OSU, and one split between OSU and KSU. Six of seven predictions were yesterday. Am I reading this wrong?

Make that 6 of 7, all updated to KSU yesterday. Seems like it's happening.

What if Garcia picks KSU first on Friday??

Who gets voted off the island so he has a scholarship? Or will it be a few days too late?

If Williams commits, that should give us a top ten class, with FOUR 4-stars and a top juco. Unprecedented.

If he and/or Garcia don't pick us, will we hear about how this is another recruiting failure on the part of Coach Weber?

All kidding aside, I do like this class coming in, regardless of what Williams and Garcia decide to do.

It was mentioned in the recruiting thread that the coaches probably already know where these 2 are picking. If the analysts are all changing their vote, they the coaches likely know, and they could also be telling Garcia his spot is gone. Will be interesting if both do pick KSU though.

Yeah you may very well be correct on that. At least hope that’s basically the case.

I highly doubt it makes it to top ten...too much is put on landing the truly "elite" players to end up top 10.

Re-evaluated in 3 years, it may well be top 10 because so many of the "top" guys will not be in school that long. From what i see, the only one in this class that could possibly be a leave early (for the pros) guy would be Miguel & that would still be a remote chance.
