Maybe he is going down to recruit Mr. Worldwide, Pitbull himself, to join the Billiken family officially. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pistol Posted November 6, 2019 Strickland is from Miami but his school is in the Sarasota area. Jace Howard is in Miami but I think he'll go play for his dad at Michigan. Wesley Cardet (2021) plays at Northeast HS in the Fort Lauderdale area - Oakland Park, just north of there. Jordan Shorter (2021) is also in Fort Lauderdale. His recruitment has been quiet lately. We also have 2021 offers in the Orlando (A.J. Neal) and Jacksonville (Deebo Coleman) areas. Best guess: He's checking on Shorter, Cardet, someone new, or a combination of the above, and he's paying a visit to Strickland's parents. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bauman Posted November 6, 2019 While I am pumped about this season, I think next year will be even better, BUT with only one scholarship available for 2020, I think someone to groom as the next H French is imperative to keep the momentum going. I know that is easier said than done-he is a special player. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tay Weaver is a grad transfer senior and our last scholarship this year was given to walk on senior Jack Raboin. We've also seen that additional scholarships often unexpectedly become available as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pistol Posted November 6, 2019 And none of this really applies to 2019 recruiting, which is over now. 1 RUBillsFan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Strickland is more of a tall guard/wing/3? As opposed to a replacement for French, right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do not want to spook anyone but transfers out are always a possibility. They are not uncommon generally speaking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
