Harris could very well end up in the class ... Sark wants that SoCar footprint. I just think others are better. Spoke with Battle yesterday. Kenny Baker hit him up this week ... but no OV as of yesterday. For me, you won't take/get Zion and Battle. And Sharma is a beast ... better prospect IMO. 8 Quote
David Latiolais Posted March 8, 2024 Posted March 8, 2024 Is there a way to quantify the value of a number one wide receiver versus the number 2 wide receiver? For example is more the number one wide receiver on the board worth three points a game more than the next wide receiver on the board? Or is the difference so slight that there really isn't a point differential. Quote
t.newman Posted March 8, 2024 Posted March 8, 2024 (edited) The linebacker haul is not only exciting but seems very realistic. You add those young men to the group we will have returning next year, and you've got something special! Not only for defense but special teams would be scary for punt/kick-off returners.

Expand He really likes Sark’s offense and the way wide receivers were used last year and developed. Maybe a Ryan Williams situation a bit from a year ago, but the difference is Ffrench is getting to campus. 6 Quote
