#notcommitted: Longtime scout talks how he evaluates prospects, Suntarine Perkins and Ayden Williams
#notcommitted is back for Week 1 and do we have a treat for you. The man, the myth, the legend Michael Felder joins us on #notcommitted to breakdown Ole Miss freshmen Suntarine Perkins and Ayden Williams. We also talk about the checklist for a scout and how they evaluate prospects from start-to-finish.
Felder, a former North Carolina defensive back turned feature columnist and scout for Bleacher Report, In the Bleachers, Stadium and more, sits down with us in studio to talk about Lane Kiffin’s two highest-rated and most anticipated signees from the 2023 class. He dives into the tape for both recruits and tells why he thinks they’re legitimate “Dudes” with a capital “D”.

What is it about Perkins Felder thinks can make him a difference maker in 2023? I nail him down to give his thorough analysis on the Raleigh (Miss.) Five-Star Plus+ linebacker. Then we move on to Williams, the former four-star recruit from Ridgeland, Miss. Felder tells us why the 6-foot-3, 190 pounder has a real shot to be a starter this season for Kiffin and the Rebels.
