Not giving the WM brethren a free pass.....
I don't believe on knocking on anyone to make someone look better. I think they use Allen just to show the comparison. I don't think they realize how bad it looks.
With all that being said. Both kids are exceptional football players. When the SEC coaches came to Shows and asked him who the SEC caliber players were he said 'Dillon Day and Jordan Allen'.
Jordan's performance in the classroom as well as on the field made him the highly sought after recruit that he is. Dillon slipped between the cracks either because of his 'attitude' or was passed on because of his academic standing.

Grade issues + minor character issues = very low star rating.
Absolutely,

Noel Devine
I meant Noel stole a car from Deion Sanders and Powe couldn't read and sued the college who offered him a schollarship and both were still very highly rated.

I hope this kid dominates at Tech. I want all the W.M. kids to succeed. I just don't understand the legend that has developed around him.
Agreed
Not saying he's not good, but if he was as good as all the WM people say he is, he would have a legit offer from one BCS school. I mean Saban would love to get an in in WM, why no Bama offer. Even MSU didn't offer. I agree that some kids fall through the cracks, but his legend has just gotten too big.

But for people to say that he is better than Allen is laughable
I didn't mean he was better than Allen. Sorry you took it that way. I was posting what the WM announcers were saying. Allen was used to show he can play with SEC caliber players as Allen is 100% SEC caliber.

Best olineman in the state the last couple of years. Grade issues kept him from being a high 4 star low 5*. DOMINATED Jordan Allen on a daily basis who btw is a Parade All-American.
Sample of what was said earlier in the thread.
