So, because they are potentially offering Mark twice as much as Cantwell got, your assessment is that Elko is as you say, "bending Mario over" because he might take that offer instead of playing at Miami?
Ok I got it.

Yes the optics of this is that bad
There’s certain recruits you just can’t lose
And the money is already an excuse

Gaby said today he’d be surprised if we didn’t end up with a top 5 class. Put it at 80%. I think that’s pretty rational. We are way too in the game for way too many elite kids to end up any worse than that. This class is going to be e-leet.

& we have beaten the teams we are most often paired up against: Notre Dame, OSU, UF, FSU, and A&M. Doesn’t mean we get all of em however it means a whole lot.

Clemson just had a down year. Alabama is a tad bit toxic with uncertainty atm. Michigan, VT, PSU and LSU all got new situations going on. . . UGA is slightly down. Mario’s first season at Miami finishing better than Oregon. USC is spending big but Riley hasn’t made the playoffs since he got there. Texas, Tennessee, TT, and the schools above will get their fair share of stars….we are going to cleanup without a doubt in my mind.

Top 5 and we won’t be 5.

And best of all in a way, Indiana is barely putting their national championship boost to their advantage because their self-imposed limits on paying recruits and inclination to not go above and beyond like is required for blue-chip recruits. Mfs just lost a commit to Louisville lol.

We will flip our fair share as well from the imploding programs.

LSU is straight up in this also just like with Henderson. LSU and A&M are going to be a problem with the NIL they are throwing at this class. I guess not many people are reporting what LSU is doing. Our staff knows what the national media doesn't seem to know.

We’ve got money and now success on the field. Potentially five guys going in the first three rounds. 2 T10 picks, etc, etc.

Mario’s no longer recruiting with an arm tied behind his back. It’s not just a suck tax. It’s the best money and success. Put us vs anyone, we’re gonna win at least 50% of recruitments.

The only thing lane kiffen better win. Cause a 8-4 record not going to cut it at Lsu they Terminate coach's like a new pair of Air Jordan's that come out every month. Plus lane is a choke artists!

So you really walked into this thread to give the pause to this:

However I do think the only way we lose this recruitment really is A&M drops the motherload on him. They’re really looking to land an elite OLine class. But logically if that’s the case I think financially it makes more sense to get Olu and keep the guys they already have and land this guy they just received the crystal ball for

Really???

You're falling off, man. Big time.

There is a mini-video on the CIS Youtube channel about 10 mins long discussing Ty Simpson. And around the 8:45 mark, a follower made the comment that Miami would have been 8-4 with Will Howard as our quarterback instead of Cam Ward. Ariz disagreed and said we would have won a few more games with Howard (implying instead of Ward). We went 10-2 with Ward in ‘24 regular season. There is a WAAAAY better argument you could make that without Cam, we would have lost to GT, SYR, VT, UL, and Cal.

Then D$ and Ariz have a back and forth about who Dawson wanted more, Cam or Howard and Ariz again picked against Ward. And D$ mentioned how we are glad we got Ward looking back and Ariz again disagreed because Howard won a title and Ward didn’t. And then Ariz said we need to hold off with the Ward vs Howard debate until Howard gets some NFL games under his belt.

This is just stupid. I bet you can’t find one person who would take Will Howard over Cam Ward right now. Just plain stupid.
