If he has a legit offer he better not play poker too long. That's all I'm saying. If he wants to come here he'd be well served to get in while he can. They won't wait around forever on him

Agree . Just guessing we're only taking one more

He has a legit offer & they would accept his commitment if he wants in.

The two go hand in hand. If they wouldn't accept his commitment, then he doesn't have a real offer.

My point is that the offer almost certainly has an expiration date. And that expiration date arrives as soon as soon as some other WR jumps on the final spot.

Depends on which WR, Moore has been turned down 3 times & Kevin Austin could be headed to Clemson or ND.

He was just offered a few days ago, hasn't had any visits yet, so it's not like he has to commit in 2 weeks or else.

Bruh, has that "Moore was turned down 3 times" been confirmed? I have to believe the kid has more pride then that. And if that is true, if I were him, I would move on permanantly.

I would take Austins commitment but according to Pete, we would deny him too.

So is it just between Xman and TThornton for that last spot?

Either way I think what Chise' is saying is that if XMan calls Richt and says he wants in, we will probably start sending Thornton straight to VM. So if he wants in, he better not wait until NSD or until we find some other diamond in the rough at some camp.

I believe they would also accept a commitment from Terrace Marshall. Possibly Jalen Hall from California, but not sure about that.

Peter Ariz would know better, but I think one or more of Marshall, Hall, and Williams have open offers? (meaning, regardless of what anyone else does, they are takes? Is that correct?)

That doesn't make much sense. If you got turned down but were still interested wouldn't you wait for the staff to give you the green light? And if you tried a second time, I would hope you'd have enough pride to tell the staff to fck off rather than trying a 3rd time.

Thanks Pete, I'm one probably looking into it too much. You have a good vibe on the pulse of these kids, so I'll go w that.

Yes and the expiration date may have the name of Austin.

Actions are louder than words right now for this kid... they all pointing to Miami!

I agree. Interesting the timing of his decommittment from Baylor comes after a UM offer and not the UF offer.

He honestly sounded to me like there was a specific offer or two he's waiting on. Not buying that he was a fan of ours growing up either. Kid is the goods, but not holding my breathe.

I agree with this
