2027 David "DJ" Jacobs 5* DE from Roswell, GA (Blessed Trinity Catholic) Commits to OSU

The family wants him down here, he wants OSU. There is the disconnect imo. He doing it out of respect for mom and dad but he makes his own decisions. I hope Mario works his magic though and changes his mind

The brother Dawson Jacobs plays a role here. The last family visit was focused on Dawson and Fong implied the family also wanted to visit again to help Dawson in his decision making process. Even if you think DJ is a lost cause and this would be a free trip, Dawson remains uncommitted.

I still maintain there are just too many bread crumbs being suddenly found, something is going on behind the scenes.

Can’t let them use us for that schools. Cause he can still go to OSU while his brother plays somewhere else. I’m sure Mario knows what he’s doing, I don’t doubt he thought of all and everything. Remember Damari chose us and his brother was at fsu
 
I tried to tell you guys but you didn't want to listen.

@DMoney says his local sources are hearing the same thing as the national sources.

we are after DJ, we feel the reciprocal interest.

Clearly a name to keep an eye on for a flip.


I need this to be like Wright, no idea it was happening. I was at a cane fan wedding in Indiana and saw the news. I threw the mic away mid speech.

Side note the Bride's dad is a Notre Dame fan and played the fight song, we almost lynched him.

Everyone knows we're trying to flip him. National guys can scream it from the mountain tops but this has been widely known. Nobody needs to be told this on the Miami side

You're correct that the attempt to flip isn't new. The confirmation of reciprocal interest is new to the public.

In my opinion, the fact that this flip attempt is so public doesn’t give me much hope
Seems different than most though. Being that literally everyone thought us until the minute before the announcement will always give some kind of legs to this. Then add in the brother element.

I’m not holding my breath personally. But I don’t think it’s a direct 1:1 comparison for most flip recruitments.
 
This is basically another David Stone. The family wants him here but the kid doesn’t want to be here as bad.

Having the brother is interesting leverage for Miami though.
I’d give the brother all the attention. FOMO is a helluva drug. You get everyone else on board it could make a flip easier.

But I’ve seen this song and dance enough. He’s gonna blow smoke up our *** until December. Then sign with OSU and say it was never that close to him flipping.

His brother was here. He transferred to FSU after Demauri's first year here.

Not quiet. Stone was local to OU and had friends he wanted be around while his parents didn’t want him around said friends.

The Justin Scott flip came out of no where as well.

A bunch of times where we would hear of a flip for months nothing would happen. (Now I’m sure some sunshine pumpers or fans offended will bring up everyone we flipped where there was smoke) but that public statement by the previous poster is super true that is why I don’t expect a flip from DJ

Scott loved Miami. It was his Moms that wasn’t sold on us. She wanted ND but he didn’t want that, so he chose Taint. Mario just kept working though. In terms of hearing about flips, well the principle of this site sold us on it being the strategy after a summer we missed on the top of our board. Mario did deliver as well that cycle. We flipped Carr, Blount, Lyle, Hayes, Rudolph and Scott.

That really was alot of flips. We thought it would work again last offseason and the schools learnt and said fk that. I feel like the kid wants to go to Ohio like JJ. I know Cristobal wont stop but i do think some of these recruits we should change focus at times because we have other targets who may come if we apply similar pressure
