Hopson and staff recruiting

We have just committed two 3 stars from Brookhaven who had offers from " bigger " schools . Hopson does the recruiting thing well , just needs to figure the rest out .

Re: Hopson and staff recruiting

Isn't one of these guys projected as a center?

How do you get recruited as a center? Doesn't a young man at least aspire to play guard?

If you look at this site, the class looks pretty impressive: https://247sports.com/college/southern- … ll/Commits

Maybe their star ratings are inflated?

Well, it seems kind of specialized. Maybe he's a good snapper.

Re: Hopson and staff recruiting

Center is probably the second most important guy on O. He touches the ball every single play and he makes all the line calls.  I would think every interior lineman aspires to be a Center.  When I was a pee-wee coach, I found my Center before any other player, even QB.

Makes a lot of sense. Thanks.

Re: Hopson and staff recruiting

That's why Farrior asked to be moved this season.

And why I wished that Stutzman wouldn't have been sick.  Farrior has done a good job because he's smart but those weak ass snaps in the shotgun have mad me and many others a nervous wreck.  I don't know that Farrior has been a C before.
