    Considering McFarland's mom - Campbell.

    Based purely on talent, probably McFarland. I'm not sure that Campbell doesn't switch over to OL in college.

    I don't know anything about the guy's character, but it would not surprise me if a recruit created some noise about eliminating his supposed favorite, doesn't put that team's hat on the table - only to pull it out & chose them. If he's trying to draw attention to himself, that would certainly be a way to do it.

    My calculator can't compute another 5 star player.

    I get divide overflow error.

    Damn.

    Major props to Dandydon.

    A lot of people make fun of him, but he stuck by his guns and had this one right.

    Sonny from Scout has been wrong a lot lately. Koenning, now this one, and he's saying LSU won't get Chavis, which I think he will be wrong on as well.

    Looks like Mike S has been much more reliable with his "inside info".

    Knowing what we know now, Campbell no doubt. He's enormous and has that natural strength that's normally equated with corn-fed guys from the midwest who grew up stacking bales of hay by hand and pulling cattle out of the mud. That natural strength just can't be duplicated. Pure weightlifting strength can be added to frames that can't hold it, but eventually they break down.

    McFarland is a special talent, though.

    Sonny was wrong about Vic but he has not said we will not get Chavis but says not to sleep on Walker.

    But Dandy has mostly stuck to his guns on this one and would love for him to be right come Saturday. Dandy was about the only one I saw stick with WC.

    Well Sonny is saying his inside source says Chavis to Clemson.

    His sources are letting him down is all.

    That is what all the Clemson sources were saying, which is where Sonny got the info.

    And Chavis was going to Clemson until we made a better offer than them once it appeared/we knew Walker was taking a HC job.

    Re: 5Star DT William Campbell

    I understand but the reality of the situation was that it was a bidding war between LSU and Clemson and Sonny should have been able to find that out.
