I am very excited about these two guys and the WR class in general!
In another thread someone asked if Vasher is the highest rated WR recruit for Tech since Crabtree('06-'08). In short, no, but since I looked it up I thought I would share:
'09 Eric Ward 5.8 4*
Pos-41 Nat-NA State-31
'11 Marcus Kennard 5.8 4*
Pos-NA Nat-NA State-NA
'11 Derek Edwards 5.8 4*
Pos-33 Nat-NA State-39
'12 Dominique Wheeler 5.8 4*
Pos-26 Nat-171 State-23
'12 Reginald Davis 5.8 4*
Pos-40 Nat-237 State-30
'13 Devin Lauderdale 5.8 4*
Pos-26 Nat-216 State-28
'16 Derrick Willies 5.8 4*
Pos-NA Nat-NA State-NA
'16 TJ Vasher 5.8 4*
Pos-55 Nat-NA State-42
This does show that Crabtree and I'd add Welker and Amendola have both raised the profile for WR at Tech. 5.7 and 5.8 has become the standard and basement for what is expected to sign here.
I also believe that Kingsbury and Mahomes will continue to attract quality recruits for the next two cycles. I am excited to see what the height in this class is going to bring.
