CB Kenton Dopson Decommits

View as article
This one kinda hurts. I’m not as low on UNC’s future as others.

But I had a boss who once told me my coworker was being canned because ‘you can either be an ***** if you’re good at your job, or you can be not very good but be likable, but you can’t be both.’ You can’t suck and be disliked.

Bill’s team sucks, but also he brought in Lombardi who is ****ing everyone off. And there’s so much dysfunction it might blow up before it ever gets a chance to improve

I can't really hate on the kid inasmuch as he is taking advantage of an economic system currently in college athletics where he can make substantial money soon. What I do despise is an alum of school, a former member of the football program no less, advising a kid to do this for a fistful of dollars. Total scumb-g. May this colostomy bag be ostracized from all alumni events.

Gotcha. They get the benefit of the doubt despite the epic disaster, but the hometown team doesn't get the benefit of the doubt.

70 new faces, hand picked by BB over there at UNC, but go for it buddy. Take the bag and just say you're in it for the cash upfront and have little interest in actually developing or competing

When Miami went 5-7 in its first season and half this board wanted Mario fired already, you think our Top 10 recruiting class was signing with us because they wanted to develop and compete or because we were tossing big bags at kids?

You think Justin Scott decommitted from Ohio State because of our track record of D Line development?

Be for real.

ehhh I wouldn't say shopping him around. More like chasing a social media check doing the most trying to go viral and become a content creator.

Not sure mang. She been pretty clear she's by the phone waiting for calls. She has friends and family on there openly talking about he needs to be paid. Don't get me wrong, there's actually nothing wrong with it morally or legally. If he continues producing on the turf she will get that call.
 
I thought I read in here a while back that we were looking elsewhere and that is why he started looking at UNC. Is that not the case?

Fair point, but there was a clear vision and direction that was sold along with the money.

UNC - not sure you can say there is a clear vision there. Not sure you can say they have an identity either
 
I get chasing the bag, but this cat was getting life changing money no matter where he signed. I will repeat what I said in the other thread. Anyone who leaves this Miami, under Cristobal to willingly step into that 3d ****show currently going on at UNC needs better, smarter people in their corner.

OK, but they going to probably the worse team they could possibly pick. Unreal. Get ready to collect them L's buddy. They watched a 4-8 horrible UCF squad just completely demolish that dumpster fire and were like, yeah I'd like my son to go there. Kids needs an intervention.

No way we’re surprised at this. Ive seen partners 20+ years into their career jump ship for a few $100k+. It’s malpractice if we cant predict a 17 year old doing the same.

My guess is he wanted CB1 money, which he wouldn't have gotten at Miami. We have OJ, Lucas, Brown and Oconner all coming back. The nice thing is when he enters the portal after his Freshman year, he can return home

What you mean current climate? When has this stuff not happen in recruiting. I seen Tommy Kinsler flip to us at midnight, i was on my way to the club after UF claimed he was locked in. We have even more wild stories before NIL. There was and always been these type of kids from South Florida who went elsewhere for a variety of reasons. Money, hype, bucking the trend, just hated the environment, you name it

For us we never had the wild recruiting stories in our favor. It was things that went against us cause we never played in that pool. We couldn't swim in the deep end. Now we swim with the biggest of fish. Everyone at this level has access to the money they need. That is the one constant. NIL is what I mean by current climate. Yes there's obviously been exceptions in circumstances. But THIS was never a normal. Things literally change moment to moment. Wild west don't explain this ****. This was simply a decision there's no rationale to. For the people that say belichick is the NFL version of Satan for DBS, it's not true. No part of belichick is some savant. He's a **** good defensive mind. But he's not gonna be there throughout this time for him so this is simply a money grab. I still won't be surprised if he ends up back with us unless Mario says he doesn't like how this transpired and says **** em.

I don’t see the problem with his post.

Using his mother for likes is a lesson that can be learned from before he’s 18. He put it out in a public forum and everyone showed him love.

Now people aren’t being as kind because frankly it’s an embarrassing thing he did now with this decision.

Nothing he can’t come back from.

He honored his mother. It's that simple. The fact the kid appears to have changed his mind for whatever reason, doesn't mean anyone because they're a fan of a football team can call a kid a disgrace to his ****** mother. Anyone that was raised to disrespect someone to that extent over a football team is in all likelihood far more of a disgrace than this kid could ever be. It's just sad.
