The headline on the front page says "Stock Rising". Since my 401k/IRA investments have taken a hit lately, it's nice to know the stock in something else I care about is rising! :smiley:

But great news on all 3 kids, just as I expected. It's going to be a fun 4-5 years watching these kids.

He has a classic name. When I see it on the back of his jersey every weekend I will get it right.

That said, I still say "Big George."

One list had Drake Jackson (@ #2) & Landon Young (@ #5) as top 5 overall best performers on the offense. They were also the only 2 OL listed in the top 5.

I also saw where both Young & Jackson were also listed under the "stock rising" category in a Rivals article.

That was yesterday. Posted in one of my threads that today, Landon Young was the #1 top performer on offense, Kash Daniel was the #1 top performer on defense, and Drake Jackson earned a superlative as "arguably the West team's most valuable offensive lineman" and praising him in a number of ways. All per 247sports.

Maggard on Young

Those saying-writing Landon Young can't start as a freshman watching different film than I'm seeing. Can't turn film off, got "it' factor

Transition from HS to college difficult, but most college ready UK OL commit I've analyzed in 4 years evaluation.

Here is what it says;

1. OT, Landon Young – Dare I sayLandon Young has five-star traits? In the hunt for five-stars in this 2016 class, we may have a new candidate. Young has a lot to like. He's 6-7, moves extremely well, and he keeps his quarterback clean. Kentucky is getting a good one.

Top 5 defense
1. LB, Kash Daniel – On a day with a lot of mental reps, it becomes clear what players are comfortable communicating and being leaders among their peers. Daniel is one of those guys. He also made some plays. On one play in particular the West offense had three offensive linemen in front of a screen play ready to block Daniel and he made them all miss to get to the ball-carrier.

That is what I've been saying all along. I know some like to proclaim that every freshman Lineman should RS, but Young is simply too good & he plays at a huge position of need, IMHO.

Still looks good!

Kash said the staff has said he will share second string Mike snaps behind Love in the spring.
