So with his offer list, he essentially has zero shot at qualifying I'm assuming.

Good get, WRSOAT.

Has there been any discussion on how he looked in practice or walking off the bus?

Great body?

So, does the staff just feel comfortable at DB, or are they just waiting to swoop in and steal this guy from Kliff?

I know I did this earlier in this recruiting thread but here it goes...........

I seriously doubt this new HS DT makes it here, or if he makes it here, says "WTF is this place, no beaches? I am outta here".  We DON'T sign HS DT's, thus the one that got his butt tasered in MO and this dude will not make it here anyways.

Trust me, I am all  that we land these dudes, but my pessimistic side is all like  waiting for the  when they go elsewhere.

Pretty sure we signed two HS DTs as recently as last year, guy.

it's great to be a pessimist, but next time try to add something.

Guys who are from Florida and guys who can handle a good tasing are exactly the kind of people i want on my d-line

[wabash909]

It's pretty awesome that we have people on here that think a Florida prep DT with 20 offers, including one from Miami is going to 1) qualify and 2) end up at K-State next year.

I mean, seriously guys...

I had a class with him and can confirm that he is a big guy. He is a thick dude with huge legs but he is not very tall. Definitely not 6 ft, which he is listed as.

So I was perusing the Scout Recruiting site and they have changed the rankings of a couple of our recruits. Tanner Wood is now a 4 star and Ramirez and Boyd are both now 3 stars. WTF!?!?

They really like Chance Allen a lot, too, for some reason.

Tanner Wood capped off an amazing senior season by being named Gatorade Player of the Year for the state of Kansas.

Tanner Wood being rated 4 stars and GPOY is awesome and great for us. But why the eff did Ramirez and Boyd get moved down to 3 stars??

Does it really matter?  These are the kids we're bringing in, regardless of stars.  Its not like the star value will drop out overall team ranking in any significant manner.

Star ratings do matter to me, and they matter to 95% of the posters on this board, and pretty much everyone who follows college football.

['taterblast]

i've become nearly full tuck when it comes to stars. don't care unless they're just blatant 5's. which k-state doesn't get. so i don't care.

There is no way Ramirez should be 4 stars

[420seriouscat69]

Carnes by far has the best insidery recruiting breakdowns. Although he's never seen them play, he can still decipher a 3/4* by touch.

I'm curious to see our win/loss record against teams with better recruiting classes over the last 2 years.   

[jc_jax]

Wouldn't that be the exact same as our overall win/loss record over the last two years?

[ZappaCat]

Why?

We would have to throw out our wins against FCS schools and about half of the midmajors we have played.
