WR Ra'Shaad Samples to Transfer from Okie st

Postby Stallion » Tue Feb 24, 2015 7:41 pm

son of long time Skyline Head Coach Reginald Samples
Brother-in-Law To Aldrick Robinson
4 star out of high school-OSU's highest rated recruit in 2013-No. 19 Ranked WR in Nation
offered by the world including SMU. June even offered him as a Sophomore and he's made several visits to SMU-Reportedly runs a 4.32
hopefully, his Dad has close ties to our High School connections
SMU has about 4 connections to Okie St including DC Malone, GA Bobby Reid, GA Eric Henderson, Strength & Conditioning Trumain Carroll
Redshirted as freshman-caught 3 passes last year

Seems like he might want to step down a level and play. 3 catches in 2 years and looking at sitting out would have to be hard to swallow.

He redshirted in 2013 and played a little in 2014. Am I right that he would lose a year and then have 2 to play after sitting out a year?

What if he sustains an "injury" that prevents him from participating all season. Could he hypothetically get a medical redshirt while sitting out?

Years to play is probably not on his mind nearly as much as wanting to play. I just cannot see him wanting to sit a year anywhere. But maybe so, and if so it might as well be with us.

yep unless he has a sick grandma

It would really work out fine-since we are not likely to have a big 2015 anyway. We still have a few to give in this class and he would be ready to go for 2016 when we hope to jump up and compete for honors in the AAC. His speed is what Morris looks for at that flanker position. He was pretty much the undisputed fastest player on OSU's team until Tyreek Hill came on board. Samples reportedly clocked 4.32 during a Oklahoma St. testing competition which at the time was the fastest recorded at the school

OSU is loaded at Receiver-couldn't tell this year because they didn't have a QB. Redshirted as Freshman. Only really one spot a 5-10 receiver can play in Big 12 which is Flanker or Split receiver. Most Big 12 WRs are going to go 6-2 or 6-3.

Thinking about both he and Castile in the slot makes me all kinds of giddy with sutton/honey/Thomas on the outside. Wow.

Damn just get our damn Oline to man up and let's do this!

Hopefully Malone and McDaniel can kill it in Houston with defensive studs over the next 2 classes and can see us getting real good real quick.

Ok I have to stop now - getting too excited and screwing up my expectations.

I don't know — I didn't talk to him. Media is not allowed to talk to any recruit on campus, and I have no idea what the rule is about a potential transfer, so I stayed away. Just read his name tag.
