D'Ernest Johnson, RB Immokalee HS

[Hem]

Look at a picture of the kid, does he look 5'9 160??? That'd be rail skinny

 

 

Here's some stats from the interwebs. Let's see if we can find ourselves a median range.

6 of the 7 the recruiting experts have pinned him to USF, and those 6 made that prediction between yesterday and today.

I thought we wanted a bruiser?

Ideally you have both for a change of pace.  IMO the power running game has more to do with the o-line than the RB.

This.

[GaUSFBull]

As said, we need a bruiser AND a "home run threat."  More importantly, we need dominant O-linemen.

How does he compare to staffon McCray...similar sized rb we got last year

[BiggTipp]

McCray is around 220....

[Reliable Source]

This kid has a good sized frame. Not worried about size at all. He is the class of 2014 RB's that we are recruiting with the exception of Yearby who is recovering from complex ankle break. We land him and this will be USF's best recruiting class ever.

 

ps. Dee was scheduled to go to UL on the 17th now he's coming to USF

You want somebody that can do it all.

[LunchTimeBully]

you get the best available athlete. i think mccray and Tice can develop into bruisers if they put on some muscle weight.
