2026 Derrek Cooper 5* RB/ATH from Chaminade Commits to Texas

[TheReturn2023]

That based on what Ariz and D$ mentioned on the pod today or something more official?

Clickbait from those boys. They don’t know anything special about Cooper’s recruitment. It’s simple - Cooper is committing to Texas Sunday. That’s all.

Lock up the thread. Texas bound

No better way to be on a Friday night.

What time is his announcement on Sunday?

 

[TwentySix]

What time is his announcement on Sunday?

7pm

 

[mosthated305]

7pm

Texas even trolling Mario's 7pm commitments lol

 

[ssvir]

Why is it < 15%?

And again if you are blindly looking at 51/49 without the context of your entire season being on the line then you aren't doing your job as a head coach

It’s called math and statistics.

@sweatchuck

We need you gang

 

[JeremiyahLove'sPassifier]

So was the Gaby post real?

 

[6th Ring is Near]

Then we should have taken Jae.

I agree with you but I don't make those important decisions. Lol

July…where June’s “absolute must gets/cane locks” morph into “overrated bag chasing divas”

Both can be true!

 

[Rellyrell]

So to give a summary of this albatross of a thread:

We started like:

Then after Cantwell we were like:

Then the Wow thread had us like:

Then the June commits had us like:

But then July came around & we were like:

Which lead to this non sense:

That jumped off into this nonsense:

B/c the antagonist in this thread often comes on CIS like this:

But then, we got a commit from Bargain Wingo, so we got back to:

Which led us back here to:

Then we heard we hired his RB coach so we were like:

But now Gaby has ****ted on our parade so it’s back to:

Are you saying we chose not to take him? I thought we WANTED him...

Yep

A bunch of hype for a RB. It’s more about optics than the player IMO.

I just don’t see elite RB 5 star on film.

This has nothing to do with Miami not getting him. This whole thing is more about Mario and Miami needing to make a statement and keeping a 5 star home.

There are many other pure RB out ther

I mean he’s definitely big, fast and explosive

Yeah that doesn't use any actual metrics of the situation though. It's just basically saying that studies say when losing late it's generally better to go for it. Which I agree with. Again, I have literally said I think I would probably have gone for it and think I even wanted to at the time. But I do not view it as some terrible decision making to kick the FG there is all I'm saying. I view that as much more of a coin flip decision that just didn't work out for us. Whereas everyone else is acting like it was an obvious MUST GO situation, when I definitely don't think it was.

Again like I said before getting the 4th and goal is around a 20% chance. The FG I viewed as 100%. Holding them to Less than a TD while still having like 1.5-2mins left was probably 10-15% chance. We were in a bad situation period. People acting like Mario shot our hope of making the CFP in the head with that decision are crazy.

I remember mario saying the analytics said kick, **** confused me because one it was a lie and two if it said toss up or kick common sense should say you should trust the offense

Jon Beason went to Chaminade

This recruiting class was still a few years away from being born when Beason went to Chaminade

 

[EightiesCane]

You have to ask yourself who the other players from Chaminade were and what their actual chances of making it to the league were. It's not like Chaminade was some powerhouse in the 1990s or early 2000s.
