Card Chronicle's Must-Have Football Recruit For 2013

PrintAll right, we have a pretty solid track record on the AAU circuit, so I think it's time for Card Chronicle to take a quick foray into the perhaps even creepier world of football recruiting.
The Target: Clarksville, TN QB/LB Jalen Reeves-Maybin
The Reason: He's Marques Maybin's son
The Follow-Up Note: Holy sh-t, Marques Maybin has a son who is a junior in high school. I'm going to be eating dinner at 4:30 any day now.
As a four-star recruit already with offers from Tennessee and Vanderbilt, among others, Reeves-Maybin isn't exactly a diamond in the rough. He's listed by scouting services as a quarterback, but is being recruited by colleges as an all-around athlete.
As a junior in 2011, Reeves-Maybin had 85 solo tackles and 18 assists to go along with 10 forced fumbles. On the offensive side he rushed for 1,463 yards rushing and threw for 1,267 more yards while accounting for 46 total touchdowns.
Jalen says that he has had contact with Louisville, but that the Cardinals have not offered him a scholarship yet. I'd prefer if that changed.
Bring Almost Tackling/Throwing/Catching/Rushing/Scoring Jalen Reeves-Maybin To The Oven.
Tagline is a work in progress.

If Charlie wants him, Charlie should be able to get him.
We need to make sure Charlie wants him. Your move, Rutherford.
Stout Out!

Reminds me a lot of ...
Keenan Burton, who came out of Manual in 04’ went on to be a WR at UK and then on to the NFL with the St. Louis Rams. Definitely not a QB, but a big time athlete we could use on either side of the ball.

I'm sold on the kid, but the thought of another movement ending with a broken heart scares me
I’ve been hurt too many times before.
Everyday I'm Russelin'
I back this regardless
But would it be enough to bring ADMM out of retirement?

I would like to order a #PapasJuniorMaybinInTheOven Pizza.

I have a vision...
Of this kid in red vs. UK, scoring a touchdown, and celebrating with a goal post dunk. Someone snaps the picture, and we have Fully Dunking Jaylen Maybin (FDJM). The legacy is complete.

So if my math is right, this kid would have been like 6 or 7 when Marques graduated. How did I not know that he had a kid that old when he was here?

Are you really ready for another one of these campaigns? Do you know how powerful they really are?
If Jalen Reeves-Maybin doesn’t qualify academically and is forced to go to Jones County Junior College which is then invited to be in the crippled Big East, I’m blaming this blog.
He is a Cardinal legacy recruit.
He belongs here. Just as it broke my heart to watch Nolan Smith playing for someone else, now that I know about him I couldn’t stand to see Jalen Reeves-Maybin go elsewhere to play. All aboard, young man.
Wow
This kid is good no matter who his dad is. Sometimes these highlight videos can be a bit boring but he was straight up balling in this one. #throwmaybinonthetrain
