Completely agree that UNC, of all teams, is an odd choice. But we sold recruits on money and the opportunity to play early so we cannot possibly get all twisted up when other teams do it too.
I don't think people - at least not me - are bother/disappointed/whatever it is by the kid picking money and early playing time as knocks, but that he's choosing those at the reason to go to UNC.

If he flipped to Bama and it was due to money and early playing time, I don't think people would mind - the fact that he wouldn't want to compete for playing time would raise eyebrows, though. UNC is the issue more than anything else because what an absolute disaster they've been this year compounded by the fact BB is looking for a way out, and if he doesn't you still have the drama and nonsense surrounding that program with his chick.
 
This is what I was thinking. Kid knows he has no chance of starting and minimal snaps next year at Miami. But of all places to go, that might be the worst
yep this is what it is...but they were the main school pushing how much they will pay they did the same with Flowers who he is tight with but flowers ended up going to UF.

The recruiting cycle isnt over but i woulda not had him flipping to unc this early unless unc just needed this publicity this bad and paid extra for it happening now.
 
Anywhere else, sure, that matters a lot, but at UM, "Details."

And, IIRC, the conversation was more along the lines of, "you're a Fr, you're young, we want to take a look at how you develop, mature."
Pops trying to build a narrative… I wonder how a kid like this would mesh with the team culture.
 
Two words for everyone all up in arms: Transfer Portal. Get that bag from Bill and circle back next year after he’s canned. 😂
circle back to what?.

the same depth chart will be there next year if playing time is seen as the issue..the same kids will be here...this is why i cringe everytime it sayd about get him back out the portal.....he may end up there but it wont be to come here.

Kids will be volatile, especially with the money now being openly discussed. Malachai decommitted and came back. Now, he's special, but also a torch carrier for the culture. If you think a kid has the talent and can help you win, you stay on him. If you were on the bubble, kid did you a favor and you move on.
 
And you guys wonder why we recruit nationally.

Noticed this more recently with Mario

He’s definitely starting to say F it to the local kids games

What else do they want to see from us. We’re winning big games, have a great NIL program, good schemes on offense and defense. And developing players to the NFL and freshman AAs
 
hes a good kid, team player type he fits here. hes been recruited by every school to leave norland and has stayed there the entire time.
It’s easy to make assumptions with this ****.. hopefully he ends up here in the end. Edit: but I guess he won’t based on your next post lol
 
I have no issue, none, with a guy taking the highest offer. In fact, I think if you don’t do that you’re making a mistake. A windfall like some of these kids seem to be getting at 18 is serious, and taking less is something there’s no way I’d advise an 18 year old to do.

That being said. This ************. This ******, no neck, xxxl fits like sausage casing mother ******. This is the **** that ****es me off.



 
Imagine being so butt hurt because a staff member didn't give you an offer your freshman year even though you clearly got one later on and then committed

TrumpyCane thinks its a great idea though to commit to a grandpa whos more focused on punani
if you know the dad he is the biggest troll in s.fla hs football. lol

UNC offered the most money...dad wasnt coy about it from the jump...thats why if u check my post i always said PAY him whatever because i knew nil would be the main basis. The issue for us is.....OUR CB ROOM is loaded in the span of one off szn so us spending the same as unc i highly doubt especially considering what we also have committed in 26 class.

This is where fandom and reality collides. I know for a fact dad is genuinely a um fan...but i dont know their personal finances. Hes done a great job raising that kid so far man...no one ever has nothing bad to say about the kid....dad takes all the heat lol

if im um fans also id chill a bit considering the cycle isnt actually over. Attacking the mom situation definitely a bad look..considering i agree with dad after seeing the post that he committed on that day for mom not that moms wished for him to go to um.

Like TrumpyCane said

Zero issues with him decommitting and taking life changing $, happens every year and will continue to happen, majority of people here would do the same

It's the extra things, and like you said he's a massive troll so him getting butt hurt over a few tweets from our fans shouldn't be something he gets in his feelings for when he knows how it is

Hopefully he reconsiders because TrumpyCane has a UNC client who donates lots of $ to UNC and they are not happy with Bill B, and its not because of the on field embarrassments, they're looking to move on
 
Maybe it is because his son has dozens of Miami fans in his mentions calling him retarded and a "******* dummy" and pathetic and screenshotting his post about honoring his mom?

I am not saying that is you, but we can't call the family thin-skinned while some of our fanbase is telling a 17-year-old that he is dishonoring his mother because he decommitted from a football program.
dad definitely aint thin skinned. He is trolling and going to war with every school in south florida weekly. lol

He puts the biggest bullseye on his sons back because he talks the most sh*t.....and it has worked because the son has risen to the occasion weekly the last 3 years.

I think he responded for what you posted above..getting attacked for the decision.
 
Totally agree with what you're saying, but.... At some point, a grown up needs to enter the room and explain to some of these kids the difference between short term and long term planning, specifically as it applies to football money. If Kent is HIM, it won't matter where he goes to school because he will be great regardless. However, those types of players are really rare. Most kids need coaching and guidance to get better....which will make them get drafted higher....which means more money.....and if they learn a work ethic in addition to sharpening their craft, they will get a second NFL contract which is where the REAL money is.

None of this is directed at you. I just needed to get that out of my system.
They can’t think rationally you talking to people who have nothing material wise. But I feel you man and agree
 
Lol Im not on board with the disrespect about his mom and **** but this is genuinely a dumbass tweet by his dad lmfao.

This is EXACTLY the reason recruiting South Florida kids is so ******* infuriating - they all (including their parents/"mentors")have this retarded mentality. Bro you're saying you'd never allow your son to be committed somewhere because a coach said he wasn't deserving of a ******* scholarship as a freshman?!?!!!!!!!

That's the exact ******* mentality and reason why we need to go national and only get literally just a handful of local guys and maybe around 10ish Florida prospects in total per year. And you know for a ******* fact that the higher rated they are the more of this mentality they have like they automatically deserve the world JUST FROM MIAMI.
This is the thought process down here unfortunately.

It also is a reason the kids are so competitive so its a gift and a curse.

These parents are concerned about offers in YOUTH BALL/Optomist ball i kid you not. They are worrying about rankings of 9 year olds. Any thing is a slight to them...but that what fuels em.

It only seems to affect us. It’s lame

i dont think he is in his feelings like i said dude dont care like that.

Unc is a dumpster fire i agree. I wouldnt sign p for that...but then i aint being offered all that money n likely "starting spot" on a team that i likely seldomn watch to know. But i **** sure watch UM and I KNOW what i see.

It is what it is. Hes my fav cb in the class but we aint hurting there whatsoever int he room or in the committed class.

he flipped for nil and possible early playing time.

the offer thing as a freshman aint the reason at all.

dad said it in another tweet as well i think he just threw that out there for damage control but it was a financial early pt decision clearly.
