Great interview @Peter Ariz, I was expecting it to be with Thomas Brown though.
Brown can't comment on Lingard publicly as far as by name.

One thing that jumped out for me was that Richt was his first offer - from Georgia.
Makes me wonder if Richt has some other surprises not on the horizon.

Richt offered him when he was in 8th grade & was heavily recruiting him when he was at UGA.One thing that jumped out for me was that Richt was his first offer - from Georgia.

Canes fans this commit by Lingard tells you how important establishing and maintaining a relationship with recruits happens to be. Mark Richt and Thomas Brown started this relationship with Lingard at Georgia two years ago. Its basically a 2 to even 4 year process of building that relationship between a coaching staff and recruits. This is what the Miami Hurricanes head coach and staff should be doing in South Florida because they have an advantage over everybody in the nation not named FIU and FAU. Al Golden and staff wasn't building relationship in South Florida like they should been doing in the first place. They acted like they where outsiders in South Florida.
If we can get 11 wins this year we can have a top 5 class..can this really be happening?
Todd Gurley made it to the IAAF youth world championship semifinals in Lille, France in 2011 in the 110 m hurdles. Ran at UGA until the coach told him he had to cut his hair. Had one of the fastest times in Uga history as a freshman. This kid has the potential to be as good as Todd.

Also to add to that Richt is getting on the super young kids too by attending all these parks. He's not just focusing on the guys that could be Canes in the next 3-4 yrs. He's recruiting and showing love to kids that could be Canes 5-10 yrs down the line by going to parks and watching these kids in pop warner and ****. Nobody else can do that and It will definitely pay dividends in the future.
As a kid growing up in Miami theres no way you're not going to be a Cane fan growing up if Richt and a few players visited you while in Pop Warner while they are winning games. Just winning would probably be enough to make these kids dream of being hurricanes. But winning AND actually showing up and showing them love when their young...they'll remember that the University of Miami did that when it comes time for them to choose a school.
