So how is a kid like this with an offer list like that just a 3 star?

Yeah, I'm wondering that too. The 247 Sports guys were referring to him as a 4 Star, but everyone knows they don't count.

That can easily change after the summer camps.

He was a 4 Star prospect 11 days ago, Rivals did a re-ranking and the DE prospects had the most movement of any positions as they re-aligned the Strongside DEs and the Weakside DEs. He was ranked #250 before they did it.

If Chiz offered him this early and everyone else also wants him, then that's all I need to know.

Auburn had a camp here recently, and I suspect he attended, and impressed.  There's a kid here locally that attended that I haven't talked to since, but will see if he knows anything about him.  The local kid here is an OT, so he may have had some occasion to be involved in some drills against him.  Since they're not in pads, probably not, but I'd like to talk to him and see.

They have OL vs DL pass rush drills in camps w/o pads or helmets.

I thought they might, but was not sure.  I'll ask the kid when I see him.

No need to get shit straight from the source JR, the skreets have spoken. This thread can now be locked.

His skreetz are solid!  I meant ask the kid I know if he saw Bower work out or worked against him.

Those pass rush drills are very one sided, favoring the DL. If an OLineman dominates in the pass rush drills, that says a lot, IMO.

Yeah, without pads, they'd have to be.  And this kid I know locally, I'm thinking he's not SEC caliber.  He's a big fucker though.
