I don’t usually care about what media says, since it stoped reporting news 20 years ago and replaced that with trying to make news. But I hope the media continues down the road of “UM only gets recruits because of how much it pays” narrative. It is very useful in recruiting.

As a narrative it is the equivalent of “she’s only popular because she PUTS OUT!!!

to a group of young men and see what happens.
Just ask:
Nick Saban
Pete Carroll
Every other SEC coach of the past 50 years (except Vandy coaches)
Every OSU coach after Woody Hayes
Every Kentucky basketball coach after Adolph Rupp (my brother in law played for Joe B Hall and Eddie Sutton)
Every Duke basketball coach starting with Coach K
John Wooden
Jerry Tarkanian
Fixed it for you...

I understand the sentiment, but maybe the on field product hasn't warranted everyone to be hunky dory.

This isn't the on-field field product board, it's the recruiting board, and we've recruited pretty well for the 3 classes Mario has been here. Best in the league, by a mile, although admittedly that's not much of an accomplishment in this garbage conference.

It smells very much like ***** on this particular board, as usual, when the tiniest thing changes with any recruit. It's immediate panic. Clockwork.
 
I'm not sure why this kid and many kids for that matter take OVs any more. Your agent can negotiate for you as you sit at home and review the offers. Kind of like selling your house.

Agent can't suck your **** in a dorm room bathroom like a 19 year old co-ed can. Unless maybe it’s that guy from Fyre Festival. If you’re into that kinda thing.
 
While Mario and Mirabal are the absolute best on the trail and landing Cantwell would not surprise me at all....

I refuse to believe a top 2 player from the buttcrack of Hill Billy land America, will pick Miami.

Cant see it!!!
Dang. You gotta torch me with the "butt crack?"

Don't forget my guy Rusty Medearis is from here as well!

And that legend, Jason Bourne!

Look I’m not panicking but it’s been more than just the tiniest changes with this kid. First he was “tired of the process and didn’t really want to take anymore visits as he had already seen all he needed to see” and we got credible reports (I consider Adamcanes very credible) that the whole process should be done within 24-48.

Then he schedules Oregon trip because he “just wants to be sure” with a commitment date immediately following it. So we all chalk it up to he’s just going to get another last minute bag.

Now he’s not only moving his commitment date but also scheduling another OV with UGA.

Again I’m not panicking and the kid has every right to take all of his visits and handle his recruitment however he sees fit but let’s not act like there isn’t reasons to question our standing in this process. Especially for those of us who have seen this play out many times before.

Anytime the good news parade starts up and then timelines change the same thing happens. I said a week ago this was going to happen. It's why we can't have nice things.
 
Where does this urban legend of top evaluators even come from?

In 2023 we got Mauigoa which isn’t an eval. Pancake probably isn’t either

The “evals” were:

Tripp - gone
Tinilau - gone
Kinsler - ?

Or is this just from Anez Cooper in 2022?
Fun fact: As HC, Mario is about to have more 1st round QBs drafted than 1st round OL

Dinning at Prime 112 and pampered by the coeds is why you take the OV

I don’t think it’s panic for most of us. Maybe a few. Some of us might have our doubts and might not be 100% convinced he will be a Cane, but that doesn’t mean we are panicking.

I have no idea where he’s going to sign, and I like our chances, but I’m not going to bet my house on it after the change of events. Can you blame us?

Cormani McClain…”All Cane, nothing to see here folks.” Signs with Colorado.
DJ Pickett…”Cane lock. Too easy. No need to worry.” Signs with LSU.
Hylton Stubs…”100% cane, We got him.” Signs with Florida.
Romello Height…”All Cane. Just taking courtesy visit. Nothing to worry about.” Signs with Auburn.

There are countless others every recruiting class.
And that will happen, it’s just part of recruiting. But why are we pussies and soft if don’t believe 100% that every recruit that has interest in us at some point will ultimately end up being a Cane. I’m not saying that you are calling us that, but I see posters label other posters that if they just have the slightest doubt that every targeted recruit isn’t a Cane lock.

Nobody should be shocked if plans change when millions of dollars in NIL are at stake when every delay can up your💰 received
 
That’s how it works out we hit on 1 of our 2 5* OL. That’s about the hit rate for 5* recruits.

A kid Samson’s size with his athleticism, you always take and hope they take to training and working hard.
From the looks of it. He’s doing just that. Gotta translate it to the field thats all.
