You have made only 7 or so posts all today and you want me to accept you posting in Will Studlien's thread how much of an expert you are in evaluating his slowness? Please spare us all. What you say is opinion and not fact.
Fact is Will Studlien has been contacted by Luke Fickel. Will Studlien is the #2 rated player in the class of 09 by a true expert. He runs a verified 4.68-40. He bench presses verified 400+ pounds. 405 is posted. He has been a phenom in the post season. He holds one or more D1 offers already. He is 6'3 and weighs 225. These are facts and it is your expert opinion that he is slow or gets to the tackle late or that offenses only run the ball so Will can have many tackles. It is the other guys opinion that he is not as tall as posted . So be it.

It doesn't take a genius to evalute football talent. You can see differences easily in all levels of football if you watch games closely. Anyone who has been around sports long enough and seen the way players develop should have a good idea. While somethings like hitting a baseball or pitching may be harder to predict. Evaluating a future football talent based on measuarables is easier. I do it all the time, and also attend games every week. Why are you bashing Know it all so bad when he is merely stating an observation hes made from watching games. He's not stating that Will Studlien is the worst high school football player ever. He's merely saying that his speed does not compare to Klein's speed after watching them in person. These so called experts go off the same numbers and game film that we watch. There's no big secret about football prospects that experts have at judging over over regular observers. While judging things in the business world can be impossible for outsiders, judging football talents is not a science, it merely comes from watching a lot of what you are judging and observing how things pan out, and learnign things from it.
