Me again. He was the number one ranked player in the state of Virginia his senior year of high school and the number 2 ranked running back in the entire nation. Considering that information, how many (quality) offers might you expect him to have?
Where is Elijah ranked in the state?
In the nation?
I have no knowledge of Elijah and no preference whether Fuente offers him or not. The supporting evidence, including lack of "QUALITY" offers and the weight of his ranking in state, even considering his gaudy numbers, does not in any way support the offer of a scholarship in my opinion. I do not think Elijah would accept a PWO offer since he does have viable commitable offers in hand.
