The term was raised by a poster on the GPC board when discussing it.
I can't ignore the fact that Snyder signed 8 kids who are very young in age for their respective classes. That includes two of the greyshirts from last year. While I would doubt it is as deliberate as it appears as detailed of a guy Snyder has always been it wouldn't be something that he was unaware of when assessing a prospect. Whether it tipped the scales somewhat in the decision to offer a kid seems questionable to say the least but it's worth consideration. For kids in that 16-19 age range a time window a period of 6 months to a year can be HUGE in their development both physically and mentally.
Both Morgan Burns (May 19, '93) and Dante Barnett (June 14, '93), greyshirts from the '11 class, will not turn 19 until after spring ball this season.
Two wide receiver signees, Vernon Vaughn (August 26, '94) and DeAnte Burton (July 12, '94), are both extremely young for their class.
Bender (April 1, '94)
Epps (May 18, '94)
Leverett (April 24, '94)
Starks (June 6, '94)
something to ponder.
