Turk giving you spelling lessons?
Ma head just exploded from sheer joy!
This is a pivotal commitment from a player whom I feel will be an integral cog in the 'Cats' LB corps heading into the next 4-to-5 years (depending on who might red-shirt). WIth this addition to a 2018 defensive class that contains O'Rourke, Leota, Mann, Newsome and McDonald - high quality playmakers, one and all - Doc's rushing attack stopping power will be a strength for the 'Cats.
Congrats and welcome, Khalid. You will value this decision more & more throughout your college career.
I profess to know nothing....but...me excited
Tremendous - welcome to NU Khalid! I assume this means that Franklin will be a Badger - or could he be still be added? He is an OLB - ?

Pretty impressive list of offers:
Wisconsin
Maryland
Tennessee
Ole Miss
Who are the best viable options left for the 2018 recruiting class ?You forgot this years sleeper, DB Ethan Bonner. Lowest ranked of the bunch, but we usually do good with these under the radar DB's. An offer by Stanford confirms he has the chops.
Now we need to use the last 1-2 spots on skilled O players.
We have some great talent coming the next few years on the D side of the ball. These 3 LB's look superb. I don't think we have ever had 3 consecutive classes as good as the last 3.

We did not make the "top 12" for Dallas Craddieth, who I believe camped here.
From what I see seems like pretty comparable level of recruit with many of the same or similar offers.Franklin committed to the Badgers two weeks ago.

I realize it makes me sound like a giant homer, but I like Rivers and Jones much better on tape than Franklin... and apparently the coaches do as well, seeing as they told Franklin he was off the board when Rivers committed and continued recruiting Jones.
Mos def. Most of Franklins tape was offense. I think he'd make a fine TE, but Rivers' play near the LOS was pretty convincingI realize it makes me sound like a giant homer, but I like Rivers and Jones much better on tape than Franklin... and apparently the coaches do as well, seeing as they told Franklin he was off the board when Rivers committed and continued recruiting Jones.

Do you think it's an ILB vs. OLB kind of thing? Or just flat out higher evaluations on Jones?
Homer, the reverse TrollOnly a troll doesn't sound like a Homer once and a while.
I like this hypothesis.
He had the whole name thing going against him tooRivers and Franklin were more Sam's, while Mann and Jones are more Mike/Will (at least if you ask me). Either way, Jones was good enough to stay on the "best available" list while Franklin was not.
I am not much of a talent evaluator but could/does Khalid have the potential to be as good as Napoleon Harris or Nick Roach? Or is he more of a AWalk or Barry Gardener? Maybe he might make as many tackles as Tim Mcgarigle? I'd be happy if he was a blend of all or close to as good as any of these stars for NU.
His build reminds me a bit of AWalk. He looks like he can add weight easily, which is not necessarily a good thing. He moves very well, like AW.
Will be interested in seeing how things get sorted out with Fox, Fisher and Jones.
I have a feeling that Gallagher is going to have a say as well. It's easy to forget how highly recruited he was due to his early commit (December 2015 before signing day in February 2017), but there's a reason he'd already been offered by BC, Cal, Duke, Maryland, Nebraska, North Carolina, Pitt, Rutgers, Syracuse, and Virginia at that early juncture. He's pretty good.
And no that's not a slam on Jango or other linebackers. Just feel like Gallagher gets overlooked on these boards for some reason.
I'm thinking he ends up at WIL rather than Mike given the depth at Mike. But lots of movable parts in the LB corps.I have a feeling that Gallagher is going to have a say as well.
