2027 Kaden Henderson 5* LB from Tampa Jesuit

[Ric Flair Blitz]

Bidding got too high it seems like

let him go to aTm and have a repeat of their class a few years ago with all the 5* that didn't pan out. if he was playing the bag game and is seriously considering Elko Era after us beating them in the playoffs, more power to him

Was this an " I quit before you fire me" type of situation where we realized we wouldn't be the pick? I don't get the sudden shift in position. I'm still cool with our Lb commits though.

Have to reallocate more funds after our kids got formally promoted to 5 stars?

Probably and Im good either way. We have 2 great LBs in the fold. Id rather have basically every guy left on the board because of need. Lets close on Hyppolite, Woodard and the prize of the cycle Jacobs.

Mario is building a roster of aliens. I don’t think anyone is stopping this train.

Death knell

@Memnon proves to be right again

Pretty interesting timing given that David Lake published an interview with Kaden around the same time as EJ’s post. Anyone have access to 247?

Kaden Henderson reviews visit, conversations with Miami

Tampa Jesuit four-star linebacker Kaden Henderson recently took an official visit to Miami ahead of his upcoming announcement.

That being said, we move. Glover and Randle are an A+ pairing

EJ dude may be right but he’s a clown and shouldn’t be taken seriously.

Regardless, it's pretty bold of him to put this out there like this right now. He's the only one reporting that while a lot of people are still penciling him into this class.

Gaby posted it as well.

I’m sure. But also Miami felt good (allegedly) and now looks like he’s actually gonna make it to that Notre dame visit. Opening things up more and backtracking away from the finish line. I think Miami knew they didn’t need him and said you know this isn’t worth the time and resources anymore

 

[cway313]

Expected.

 

[Warrior808]

Something had to have happened. Mario doesn't usually react this way just because it looks like a recruit is about to choose someone else. Especially a 5 star one.

 

[smack99]

Good to me. Can't be spending all that money on a LB. Give it all to Jacobs!!!!

Gaby posted basically the same thing word for word, so clearly a PR move by the staff.

 

[BigDikDaddyFromCincinnati]

Dude has been an obvious bag chaser this whole time. This isn’t cope on my end; it just is. This recent development reeks of “Hey Coach….A&M just upped the bag again. Wanna match again?”

I totally made that up and have no sauces, but I don’t think I’m that far off.

We got two better LBers already committed, I’ve never seen this kid ending up here

 

[gacaneaddict]

Can't allocate too much to positions like LB and TE.

 

[joeB954]

I’m gonna assume if he’s following Matthew’s to college station, he has a little sugar in his tank.

You can always tell. He was never gonna be a Cane. Nothing more Mario could have done

There's no reason to overspend at LB when we already have 2 Wolverines committed.

We don't run a 4-3 & we will rarely if ever have 3 LB's on the field at the same time.

It comes down to if Henderson wanted to sign on in a class with 2 other LB's. That's not going to happen if he's asking for top price & expecting early PT.

From his view, he understood that committing to us while we already have 2 premium LB's in the class would mean he would have to compete & if we weren't willing to match the other offers from TAMU & ND, then he probably didn't think Miami would be the best place for him.

From Miami's side, they're not gonna overpay for a LB, when they already got their top 2. And if a kid from Tampa can't see what's being built & doesn't wanna be apart of it, then there's no need to waste their time.
