New Recruit on SMU Offer List

by **Stallion** » Sun Jan 27, 2008 5:10 pm

All Purpose Back Keith Robinson from Atco N.J. 5-9, 170. Rated 5.4 Offers from UCONN, Temple and Western Michigan. No story to explain development but sometimes that means one is in the queue. BTW I noticed that UCONN just pulled two offers from twins. One kid had no other offers

Was he one of the recruits in attendance this weekend? If not, does he have plans to visit the campus?

OK now I got confirmation on the Temple Rivals board that he had a 1/25 visit to SMU.

Here's report on Robinson-says he runs a 4.3 that seems inconsistent with that ESPN report.

Another Winslow Township player with multiple offers is all-purpose back Keith Robinson. The speedy back, who holds offers from UConn, Akron, and Eastern Michigan, clocked a 4.3 in the 40 and is one of the top students in his class.

"Keith is a superior student," said McBride. "He's been getting interest from Stanford, Duke, Northwestern, Vanderbilt, Wake Forest, schools like that are recruiting him heavily. He might not be the fastest kid I ever coached, but he is probably the quickest."

You can be assured that the halls of Winslow Township High School will be a busy place in the coming months!

What does that mean?

I means he may not be fast, but he can really move

Some Kids are quick in the 40, but are not fast in the 100 because they tail off in speed over 100 yards. That's what I took it to mean.

Yes, that or simply that he has very quick feet. Mobility and speed are two very different attributes.
GO PONIES!!!!!!! :lol:

Finally a recruit rated higher than 5.1. I was beginning to think this might be a re-run of one of PB's recruiting classes. Then again we don't know who has committed this weekend.

Let's don't start the naysayer attitude until you hear what June has to say about these recruits. He is NOT going to take kids he doesn't think can play, and that should be evidenced by the fact they dropped the scholarship offers on Dews and Allen. He obviously thought they could not play.

Redpony is right on.

Speed and quickness are two very different attributes. Speed is straight line fast, and quickness is suddenness...not being able to touch the guy in a phone booth.

Examples...Herschel Walker had speed, Joe Washington was quick.

For us...Johnny Freeman had speed, Mick Rossley was quick.

Herschel Walker was fast. Eric Dickerson was FAST and QUICK!
