Here we go…..




“One of football's most prominent recruiting families right now will have a lot of eyes on it this fall. DJ Jacobs and Dawson Jacobs are in two different stages of their recruitments, but they will be on a lot of the same visits this fall. In speaking with those close to this recruitment, the Jacobs family plans to take their fall game day visits together.

The elder Jacobs remains committed to Ohio State and already has two game day visits to Columbus planned for the season:

  • Nov. 7 vs. Oregon
  • Nov. 28 vs. Michigan
Those will be two end-of-season opportunities for the Buckeyes to lock up their top commit as programs like Tennessee, Miami and Georgia continues to have conversations in an attempt to flip the nation's No. 1 overall player.

The Jacobs family will visit all three of those places this fall, but it's with the primary intention of taking Dawson on his recruiting visits as these will be the last game day visits he gets to take before he commits. Because of the eye balls that will be on DJ joining the family on those visits, there's been some consideration to getting tickets outside of the recruiting section for those games in an effort to alleviate some of the recruiting attention he would get.

That said, the Jacobs family will visit those three programs most heavily connected to recruiting Dawson — while also still trying to flip DJ.

  • Georgia: Sept. 12 vs. Western Kentucky
  • Miami: Sept. 26 vs. Central Michigan
  • Tennessee: Nov. 21 vs. LSU”

I could never be a college FB HC. Can’t imagine how frustrating it must be to spend months recruiting a player, all signs indicate he is going to commit to your program, and then he commits to the overrated Buckeyes. And now you have to spend another year re-recruiting him and trying to flip him from Ohio State. And if he doesn’t flip, you basically wasted 2 years of effort.

Pretty much every enterprise sales representative in the world deals with this on a regular basis.. Mario just happens to make 8 figures a year while doing it. ... of course, 99.99% of sellers do not have the other leadership intangibles that Mario has which make him unique among this peer group.

Exactly. Recruiting is sales and it takes a certain type of individual. Just as no sale is complete until the money comes in, no recruiting is complete until the kid suits up for a game.

Also even if he committed to us 8 months ago, we'd still have to continue recruiting him until he signs (and gets on campus). Not really any more or less effort than if he committed to taint.
