In 2020, CY was drafted in the 1st round, DH was drafted in the 3rd, and JC was drafted in the 7th. In 2021, TT and JC were drafted in the 4th and 7th rounds respectively. In 2022, TS was drafted in the 5th round.
Just playing devils advocate, these kids are hearing a recruiting pitch that LJ is gonna retire and the last 1st round draft pick was three years ago and the player was is in the top 0.0000001 percent of all physical freak shows. Throw in NIL, kids can be swayed.
Living in Tucson will say he’s a dominant DE and would be an outstanding pick up for the Buckeyes. He’s from Salpointe Catholic a top high school football program in Arizona that Lathan Ransom and Bijon Robinson graduated from.
Watching his film, his length stands out. He has a big motor and is a bull coming out of his stance. A couple years ( months) under Coach Johnson and some technique and this kid could become a big part of future defenses. Good on him for developing himself over the course of the last year to earn that kind of praise from Johnson too. I love Predator Sequals!
Sorry until we pay no player of elite status I will get excited about then be let down. These are the same words as the last two years from elite recruits. LJ or the money and we see who wins in the end.

Currently a Florida lean, but it's early days. Let's hope we can close out on these big DEs in 2024 after whiffing on all 3 of our targets in 2023.
Well it’s starting off on the right foot. Hopefully it stays that way.
5-Star DE - what could go wrong?
There are three different types of people in the world.....those who can count, and those who cannot.
Perfect last name for a DE.
You mean "his name checks out?"
As you get older, three things happen: The first is your memory goes, and I can't remember the other two.
I wish he had a more fitting name.
Maybe change his first name to Strip-Sack?
Why not just call him, "QB Rushing?"

Any good Ohio DE? We are always in on these Florida kids until the end.
Go Bucks!
Florida?
I think he's from Tuscon.

Yes, please! If LJ likes, I like.

Rumor has it he is a package deal with his cousin, a 5* 2025 OT prospect named Darryl Pancake.
My first thought in reading the title that the story was about his NIL offer from Ohio State.
Too much time spent at the North Heidelberg rather than the classroom. SSD 68-72
I thought the exact same thing. Clickbait!
Larry Johnson is the number 1 d line coach and puts guys in my position in the league. Meanwhile Probaly goes somewhere else. NIL is killing the sport

Apparently you haven’t been listening to the “experts” on here and elsewhere who were saying LJ lost his touch.
Not for these schools: https://www.on3.com/nil/news/on3s-top-20-most-ambitious-nil-collectives/

Thought the "really exciting" offer was related to NIL. How jaded I've become.
He was talkin' bout the spin move.

Larry told him he made a complete 360 turn from the player he was? SMH. Just give the kid the NIL money now Gene. Make an investment in the program.
The name checks out, let's get him!

Would be a huge BOOM! Come on Elijah, join the best Brotherhood in NCAA Football, TOSU.

Like the boys in AC/DC say " Money Talks".
Seo
Of course these kids are thrilled with our offers. They up the anti ($$) for other schools.
I can guarantee you, Judgement Day won't be rigged
360? Doesn't that mean he's at the same place he started? SMH
