Damn straight. Have to bitch about something since tu tu rask knocked the Pens out
Don't forget about Mihota and Facyson as well as RVD and DVD.
As an athlete who was highly recruited out of high school, I can let you know how much fun this whole process can be. Coaches calling and texting, facebook messages from scores of fans, and even a few greenbacks from teams I wont mention. I waited up until the last day to sign just so I could have a few more fun trips and get special treatment from everyone. I dont blame these kids for milking this experience since they get fed like kings and paid when they visit unc and ohio state...ops, I let it slip. Im just glad I signed with such a great coach who was able to take my wall ball skills to the next level. Go Pritchard Dungeon Wall Ballers!
I'm not familiar with Kyle Bailey - is he a trustworthy source? Not saying I don't believe you, just don't want to get happy about nothing.
I would like to think landing Brown and/or Nnadi would help us in our case for Hand. They're both interior so no competition there, only compliments. Just think if we can land Nnadi, Brown, and Hand. That's a SEC type line in a year or two... to go along with Fuller, Fisher, and Jefferson in the secondary.
If you order today, the latest it will ship to Vegas by is Monday. Priority Mail seems to be taking a maximum of 3 business days to anywhere in the USA, but that's not a guarantee.
Best of luck to him. The NFL isn't for everyone.
Even though I disagree that he will find anywhere better than Tech, Im glad to see most of us are handling this like adults. Hes allowed to change his mind and I wish him the best of luck. When I see this about a miami or fsu recruit their fans always act like spoiled kids and say "good riddance" or "he sucked anyway." Hokies Respect...except uva, they suck
if we want SEC type recruits, we have to recruit like the SEC
(disclaimer: sarcasm)
On a serious note I really hope this visit goes well improves our standing with him. #BEACHFLOW
Maybe with UGA going after Park, Saban will think about Park too, leaving Cornwell to VT?
I like that he is going to visit VT for two days, and then hit up UT, then make a decision. I know that these kids have till Feb, but if I was highly touted, I would want to decide before my senior year to get it out of the way. I mean, I would take some trips and what not, but would not drag recruiting through a year that should be somewhat fun.
I do think, whatever decision he makes here soon (before end of June), it will help the other dominos start to fall into place.
Bummer, but at least he's being upfront and honest about it. *cough* Jawand Blue *cough* He's changed his mind, and with enough time for us to possibly find a replacement for his slot on the field. Stinks, though; that kid had a *nice* skill set for our style of play.
The kid's never once expressed reservations about playing far from home, plus his family has moved states at least twice during his h.s. career, so he's a little more used to moving than perhaps other kids might be. Bama is a much bigger threat than anyone else. Anyone know if he got the much-ballyhooed 'commitable offer' from St. Saban when he was on campus?
Yo, this whole picture thing. We're gonna need to talk about this.
They really need to change the recruiting terminology of "commit", to something else. Commitment, it just doesnt have the same meaning anymore
I hate to see anymore decommit from us, but maybe he was doing what's best for him.
I imagine it has more to do with wanting to stay close to home. The kid's from Durham, after all. I didn't feel that way when I went to school, but I can understand it. No hard feelings here. I think we'll be just fine.
Being a Redskins fan and living in Pennsylvania has made me more and more a Ravens fan over the years. Go BWI!
Not with that attitude he won't
I was thinking the same, may be too crowded for him.
Maybe he feels like he'll never get playing time here?
Tuesday and Wednesday? Hmmmmmm. Me like.
Except he doesn't have an offer from Oklahoma...
Can you reserve me a large shirt when you print? I have a small window before I head out and it be shipping from you to Vegas? Any idea how long it takes?
EDIT: NSFW, my apologies
Have fun learning from someone other than Torrian Gray.... #DBU
