Andrew Ellis of 11 Warriors CB for Kaindoh to PSU!
- Thread starter 21Guns
- Start date
Another prediction was added this morning for Kaindoh to PSU....3rd crystal ball of him flipping to us in the last 2 days. Very odd considering he has not visited in a while but seems to be a lot of momentum here.
This would be beyond huge and could help lock in a couple of other guys.

i realize that...but i think his last time on campus was back in Feb-March. Regardless, i'm not complaining!
100% speculation here, but if he's an early enrollee, maybe he submitted an application for enrollment?
He says that both Fries and Menet are starting this weekend.
A win vs. MSU might seal the deal.
I think PSU will get a DT between Bolds, Conliff, or Wade-Perry. I also think we'll get another DB. Can you imagine adding Wade & Kaindoh? The only think missing is a top ILB.
Suppose this plays out. We're at 26 I believe right now. Where do we end up? Top 10?
I believe it's been mentioned that Spence is not that high on the target list at the moment.
@Raffycorn said in the other thread "Also, per Wiltfong, Spence is coming with Kaindoh this weekend."
Multiple voices inside his echo-chamber head?
Well, Kaindoh has got to be seeing how much fun the DL is having this year and what a great job the coaches are doing with these young players.
At PSU he doesn't have to be the savior of the team, he can be among a whole bunch of gifted players all driving each other to get better, learning from each other, and -- from what I see -- supporting each other like brothers. Plus, getting state of the art position coaching.
Obviously he's not solely focused on championships or TV visibility or he wouldn't have committed to Maryland -- and that is a credit to him. But that might lead him to take a second look at PSU. Yeah PSU is going to win a lot of games these next few years, but the experience could be a lot more than that -- the program has the feel of an extended family, and clearly the players just love playing for this staff.

He's coming, but he's not near the top of their list at this time. That is, they might not take his commitment right now were he to switch.
Class rank of 26...
Regardless, it looks like the staff is expecting some kind of attrition with the number of prospects they are bringing in and the diversity of positions they are bringing in.
Thanks, I misunderstood (I'll delete the post).
Seem like a perfect finish with two 5* prospects would move us up to about 15. The class size would keep us from going too high.
Class ranking does not matter. What matter most is chemistry and a pipeline of dominant players.
Yes this is really good to keep in mind. Just because 4 stars and 5 stars are suddenly interested in you doesn't mean you have to offer them over players who are a better fit for your institution and your program.
I have seen this again and again -- a team experiences some success, all of a sudden they can get the highest rated players, they bring in a class of 4 stars and 5 stars and then the team underachieves and has no leadership. In the last 20 years I've seen it happen to Iowa, PSU, Michigan and others. Yeah, you need those 4 stars, but you maybe don't want a whole team of them.
at this point i would agree. we may have a small class = keeps rating service model calculation low. quality is pretty high. key for us is some top level players at key spots where we lack depth. ILB stands out on this one, and maybe a run stuffing super sized DT - although we seem to be doing pretty well using a rotation of 8 DTs none over 300#.
Oracle seems to think 21DK knows something, notwithstanding that the Kaindoh CB had been posted here yesterday or the day before. It's not breaking news.
Good points. Simple.
1) looks like a great place to play. Good team chemistry.
On the upswing. Family of coaches.
2) three D lineman to NFL (proves we can get you to NFL)
and well coached line this year.
3) great degree
4) close to home
Maryland only checks box 4
The chances that kid ends up at Maryland are a function approaching zero
Where he DOES end up? Who knows, but PSU is probably the most likely
Breaking the news in person is classy
You need to be less obsessed with me, it's creepy.
I thought about this. I suppose this makes Kaindoh asymptotic.
