A Sea Of Red

What’s the odds of him actually coming here? According to tech people, he has a gpa below 2.0 and he’s most likely not going to qualify.

Hope two of the last three should go to defense for more depth and then the last schollie should go to whatever gem we can find. Random question, but is Probert still with us or is he graduating?

Probert has a year of eligibility remaining. He is almost certainly graduating this Spring if he hasn't already, but that really is irrelevant except for the possibility of him transferring. As things stand now, part of the legacy TG has left HF is to have 2 scholarships taken up by place kickers, something almost unheard of in college football, where many P5 programs are able to consistently fill the PK role with players who start as walk-ons. Probert is talented but inconsistant and the FR Jason Stricker is a total mystery, although the fact that he did not take a single kick last year despite the 4 game rule may be revealing.

A lot can happen between now and HS graduation for Stephen SIngs. I have confidence in this staff to encourage him and mentor him in a way that gives him a drive to qualify academically.

Graduated December - starting on his masters per his twitter account.

Also via his Linkedin as well.

Having started grad school would certainly tend to indicate he is planning to stay, which leaves us with 2 scholarship kickers again unless something happens with Stricker.

The gill era roster management is just perplexing. The dl lb qb depth and 2 kickers on scholarship are all hard to fathom.

Manson posted the answer to the sings question on the rumor mill. When you put 2 plus 2 together you get 4. The path manson mentioned is exactly what i was expecting when i heard about him and the situation.

Missed this the other day when he committed, but Stephen Sings is the highest rated prospect in the class of 2020 and 2nd highest in school history according to 247Sports rankings

I will say this for our newest commit Stephen Sings. He is proud to be committed to us. As usual, 247 and Rivals are WAY late to the party. So, Sings tweeted at 247 and Rivals to let them know who he is committed to. I really want him to be on the field come game 1 this fall!

Manson. Ever able to find more on humes. So weird. Still liking lu posts and has his commitment still there. Rumor mill maybe?

Did I never say anything about him? Maybe it got buried with signing day stuff or it slipped my mind. Anyways, we “split ways.”

No you put that on the rumor mill. Its just such a strange wording and situation for a kid with that much talent at a position of need.

Manson, just curious if you had any insight on another transfer portal guy? Freeze has mentioned it pretty regularly in interviews.

I haven't heard of any that we're targeting yet.

Miss state just offered cass. That will probably make it tough to lock him up this weekend.

When asked if Liberty was his new home possibly, here is how our LB recruit answered:


KeShaun Lance Moore

Idk cuh we’ll see

Sounds like we don't have him locked up after visit and we really, really need a LB.

Don't read too much into it as he still has one more official visit left at Toledo and that is this weekend.

Fair enough. Thanks for the update!

Yeah but if we locked him down he wouldnt be taking that trip. Im amazed that nobody cares about cass. If we got him our secondary is loadddded. Obviously moore is more or a position of need and more likely based on offers but id love to get both of them.

I think for me, LB is a MUCH bigger weakness than the secondary. We lost all 3 starting LB's basically and picked up only 2 LB commitments. It was our weakest depth position last year. We don't get enough LB's, it could derail the season. I don't want to see repeats of the Rutgers game which I was at.

As for the secondary, we had some nice young players in the secondary last year. We added Deon Biggins as well as JUCO players Marcus Haskins and Juawan Treadwell. CB Keitrel Clark (Soph), S Ceneca Espinoza Jr. (Senior), Jimmy Faulks (Senior),S Micah Glaize (Soph), CB Tayvion Land (Soph), S Isaac Steele (Senior) are among some of the players who will be back. They have Tim Glass as a transfer safety who had a very high rating. I want Cass also, just don't think it kills our season if we somehow lose out.

Linebacker really is the only glaring hole left in the defense. All others seem to have been patched through this recruiting cycle and shouldn't be an issue this upcoming year. I am sure HCHF is fully aware of this and is working overtime to rectify it.

Obviously lb is the position of need. What im saying is cass appears to be another lock down db and we are in his top 2 or 3 with leach and miss state and nobody cares if we get him. He is that 25th spot that we are looking for best player available at any spot. When you get a chance at top talent you want it no matter what position.

Surely, it would be excellent to get him and I hope we do. The secondary, which is already decent, would become potentially great.

I am assuming TE Trevor Hobbs is going to sign with Liberty. I believe he was a JUCO transfer. He was retweeting Liberty stuff just 10 or 15 days ago and there doesn't seem to be any indication on his timeline that he is signing elsewhere. Is that correct, anyone?
