Good info. I always assumed we had real interest and probably set up a visit. Sounds like mama is too controlling to let her son go far. I'd personally be surprised if we went after him again if he did go back into the portal. Sounds like he doesn't know what he wants and or isn't willing to...

Maybe, but LOW key. He never visited. There wasn't a huge buzz he was coming apart from this board. Meanwhile, you were having FSU reports of a commitment, doubling down with YouTube videos, lots of confident crystal balls, cringe video of Norvell greeting him looking like a middle school girl...

I mean, someone will try that, but do you think for a second that 18-22 yo kids aren't spending a ton of that money the second they get it? There will be not much to pay back. A move like that would definitely scare kids off to other programs.

If distance is truly a factor and MIAMI is too far, then how in the world are Oregon, USC, Texas, and Ohio State “lurking” as some reports have said? If that is the case it was always FSU, Clemson, or GT because of the SEC rule. Just a lot of information out there and I think people are grasping...

I mean, they definitely had a say, but they also viewed college as an opportunity to get away from home and grow up on my own. Didn’t look at a single school within 12 hours. Guess there are a lot of moms that want to keep kids close.

Any consideration it's all a ploy to get Mario to cancel the visit? Don't think that's how he rolls, personally. Guy can sell and will go big if he wants a guy. Went head to head with Saban for Skinner with like 2 weeks and won. Doubt he's afraid of Prison Mike.

If you sell Coral Gables and the small country-club type of campus, you don't HAVE to venture into the city and still sell the perks of a city. You live on campus, go to class on campus, practice on campus, and are driven to the games on a bus with a police escort. I went from a small town in...

Man those were some battles, quite literally. This was I think the year after PJ Brown flipped Charlie Ward (a Nole) into the stands and caused the Knicks bench to clear, paving the way for Miami to come back in the series. Ugly basketball, but a great rivalry.

I don't think it was that stretched. I do think there's a chance he either signed or said he'd do their NIL deal, like "Yeah I'll do that (if I come here)." But that is not binding. Warchant took that as a commitment and ran with it. As others have said, even if he fully intends to go to FSU, it...

I don't buy the idea that any single OL can change the face of any program. Help? Yes. Be a potential final piece? For the right team (that's not FSU; make a bowl game first). But It takes FIVE dudes to impose will on the line. The types of guys that can change a program are primarily QBs.

If that’s the case then he either paid his own dinner and hotel last night or there is a major recruiting violation.

Is this Gruden 2.0? He’s already retracted saying FSU may have jumped the gun.

Agreed. I think grad transfer recruitments are typically more professional and mature than high school kids. Parents involved less, more maturity, more clear mind of what guys want after a year or two.

Agreed, and also IMO I think that both O and D linemen—the ones that are serious about the NFL—need to prove their strength and ability against other top notch lines. You have to prove you can play against the big boys. Can't do that at JSU. CBs and WRs don't have to prove physicality quite as...

That is hilarious.
