[RAZORHOGG15]

Would really like to see this kid in a Hog uniform

[Oklahawg]

Need to make sure he makes grades this year and he might bump up beyond 4 stars.

[PorkRinds]

I've seen him plays probably ten times. He's a monster.

[Steef]

Yes, please.

[Huds_HawgTide]

His grades are only reason he doesnt have offer and only reason he isnt committed

[simon the squealot]

Hardwick is by far the best player and prospect on a defense that features at leat 4 D 1 prospects. Dean has been a very good model for him to follow on and off the field. I suspect he will make his grades.

[Steef]

If grades are the only issue, we need to set up a Hogville Tutoring Service and get this done.

Actually, that's not a bad idea anyway.

Based off of North Carolina's??

[The_Iceman]

Wow, now that is an SEC LB.

Can you imagine in 2016 with him as a freshman with Randy Ramsey, Brooks Ellis, and others?

[Steef]

Not really following. Sorry.

[PorkRinds]

Not really following. Sorry.

North Carolina recently had that cheating scandal in their athletics department.  Pretty sure that's what he's referring to.

Ah. Thanks.

Not really sure the two topics equate, though.

[Fort Dweller]

Patrick Willis type.  Hits hard, wraps up, reads everything, good lateral speed.  Best defensive prospect I've seen out of Fort Smith in a really, really long time.

[Fort Dweller]

he was joking.  UNC had "tutors" who took the tests for students.  He was jokingly suggesting we have HV posters take the tests for them.  Unfortunately, I think we'd misspell most of the names.  Bunch of tests would be turned in with only initials or jersey numbers for the names.

I agree.  That NHS defense is unreal.

[HogWildBison2011]

I really do like Mr Hardwick. The 2016 class has the opportunity to be unreal on defense. Austin Capps DT, McTelvin Agim DE, Deontre Hardwick LB, John Tate DE/TE. I'm surprised Jordan Jones WR isn't rated higher. I'm guessing we are letting big Kasey Ford go due to depth at QB. Does anyone know the story on Damarea Crockett? He seems to have good measurable s but he seems  a little underwhelming on film.

Correct, I guess I need to spell out these little snide remarks...

Nah, us losers that are on here often get it.

Thanks to you, also. I understand the connection, now.

Well, for me....yeah. I'm a little slow. Just ask anybody.

Is he related to the Hardwicks we went to school with at Kimmons, oh, about 20 years ago?

[PorkRinds]

Very likely.

I think so.

You can't be steef, your 247 profile says you're a 4.23 guy.

[PorkRinds]

That's got to be hand timed and not laser. 

[Steef]

Thats not 40 yards.

Its ten.

I played mostly DT & Will.

I just figured you were in politics mode from dealing with Fatty

[Steef]

Ah.

No. I no longer deal with Fatty.

If grades are the problem, he still has another year to get them up. Arkansas has not had a linebacker of this caliber in a long time.

Credits are the problem when people don't get the grades.  I think he will be fine though.

Lets hope the counselors and family help this kid get in the summer school programs and right classes for his semesters left.  If my math is correct, he would spring, summer, fall, spring, and summer to get the grades and credits to enrol.  He could be like Tretola (yes I know tretola came from a JC) and be in classes all the way up too fall camp.

He's getting help.

[hogfan2000]

Hate to say someone is can't miss, but the guy is the best looking lb prospect I've seen from inside this state in a long time. Freddie Fairchild was a man, but I don't think his film flashed as much.  Hopefully he'll stick longer than FF did

[thebignasty]

I agree.  That NHS defense is unreal.

Northside is littered with amazing prospects,  and Hardwick is clearly the class of them,  but Northside misses out on best 7a defense I've seen in years because as a team D Southside is actually better. They're seriously ridiculous. Not much offense at Southside though.

Fortunately we get to compare defenses the last Friday of the season.

[DeltaHog82]

Somebody find him a tutor and get him a hog uniform

[Grizzlyfan]

It's probably way too simplistic but when I look at a recruit that will be playing in the SEC I figure that he should be dominating in Arkansas high school football.  This season I've seen Hardwick, O'Grady, Greenlaw, Dean, Cantrell, the OLineman from Conway, and the RB from Conway. the only one that fit's that description is Hardwick.  He tackles everything in sight, get's to the ball in the blink of an eye, and punishes people.  the OLineman from Conway is close to that.  The RB from Conway was also impressive on a couple of runs, but that was against Greenwood, so..................

[Grizzlyfan]

Storey also fits the description of dominating but given the competition I back off that a little bit.

He has all the tools to make throws against any competition.

Very likely yes.
