If he can play corner we should consider taking him. We can use an infusion of talent there. On another note, we can also use him and Jalen Rivers to tell future recruits that the grass is not greener outside of Miami.

Why Rivers? I think you mean Walker

How does he make Miami a better football team? He quit on a team 3 months in, he flipped back and forth, all of insiders said that we should’ve stayed away from this kids when we recruited him. This smells of a personality we’re trying to get rid of. We’re finally getting rid of it and you want to bring it back because “it makes the team better” even though he hasn’t played a snap in college. This ain’t no top 100 guy.

And we have 9 4*s committed. That makes 18 commits. What other obvious things can you think of?

Edit: I just noticed it was you. EL O EL at your loser *** trying to talk down to somebody. You gonna report him like you did to me and chise?

Ha! When did I say I was any of the three? Look at you, you’re like the nerds at school “well the teacher yelled at me”. LMAO you can’t even give a witty comeback.
 
We still need a ton of work on our evaluations. If you want to be real for a minute, the scary part is that Flipcois was another horrible character evaluation by Manure. He fell in love with his physical traits and ignored the diva behavior and lack of heart and grit. You generally don't win with guys like this, but there we were begging him at the end even though he had flipped on us twice already.

You're right about that but at the same time, Manny was probably thinking that he couldn't be picky since he went 6-7 last year...

Going 6-7 means he should have been even more picky about who he brought in here. Flipcois was a horrible evaluation, and he just proved it by quitting after 1 practice and 5 months at Nebraska.

We lucked out. Sometimes, it's better to be lucky than good, but you can't lean on luck too often when it comes to evaluations.
 
Only way you take him is if one he comes and plays CB and 2 you tell him straight up first wrong move and your done son. I hear what everybody saying bout the de commitments and what not but Kids can make mistakes as long as you identify what you did wrong and correct it. That’s life . But tbh think he ends up at FIUnor FAU.

I'm glad I never made a mistake at his age and had to deal with all the message board gangstas taking a **** on me like you all are on him.

I'm all about whatever makes the team better and I'm not in a position to say what does. Last year we thought he would make us better. We tried to get him until the very last minute. Situations change, but I don't write anything off while looking at it from the outside.

Good luck young man. Learn from your mistakes, that's all you can do.

But then you’re basically saying that every 18 year old kid gets a pass, that character doesn’t matter, that culture doesn’t matter, and that the staff should not factor in whether they think a kid will flake on us in the future and cost us a counter. What happens when this kid faces adversity at Miami?

It’s a zero sum equation. If we take him, it means there is high-character kid out there we have to say no to.

So yes, you have to consider character, past behavior, and culture-fit when figuring out who you want in your locker room.
