Rueben Bain (1.0 & 2.0) COMMITS!

[Mansa Musa]

I used to feel like this kid was a lock. If I had to bet now I'm taking the field

 

[Odysseus]

You are correct but as is usual with the local kids we are held to a different standard

Exactly nothing adds up with south florida kids lol

 

[Samoan Souljah]

It’s seam like everyone wants Bain to be a cane.
The Problem is he doesn’t.

You said it. You either have it in you to be a cane or you dont. I dont blame the kid one bit. He's his own person, and he gotta find his own way. Good luck young bain lol. Now get brother bain off the staff...cuz i do bleed green and orange

 

[Allabouttheu95]

I don't consider it a loss. Cannot hold it against the brother; presumably he offers something as a staff member other than his connection to Rueben.

IDK what is going to happen but I've never felt he really wanted to be at Miami. He's in a tough spot; visited enough to keep the fans quiet but basically let himself be recruited by schools he had interest in. He's giving Louisville the last OV ahead of Miami.....

His last OV is to Louisville?

 

[TRick72]

His last OV is to Louisville?

Would have 1 OV left after that one but says he may not take it because of playoffs

 

[TRick72]

I know everyone says not to read too much into these kids comments these days but it really sounds like he does not want to be here. Hope we pull him obviously but the confidence seems to be waning with each passing interview.

Don’t disagree but the interview was of his father not Reuben

 

[hoops156]

makes no sense.

other than Alibaga, the others he mentioned are all rebuilding, and Auburn doesn't have a coach, and OK and LOU could lose theirs by the end of the season.

bunch of horsesh*t

Oklahoma isn’t firing venables in yesr 1 lol

Kind of makes me feel worse. With the kid, maybe he's just playing the media. When the parent sounds that gloom, I don't like it lol

 

[bobbydigius]

Yeah... this kid will be in the class

 

[armandose23]

He's been to UM 100 times....an OV isn't the end all...

If UOV and OVs were the end all be all, Josh Jobe would be a 12th year COVID + all the variants/Monkey pox senior with two masters and a PhD. The guy needed to take a **** and would drive to greentree.

I have to disagree. If he doesn't OV, I don't have much confidence he ends up at UM. We've seen players practically live on campus, but avoid the OV and sign elsewhere. I remember Rashard Robinson was at UM seemingly every weekend during his senior year and he still ended up at LSU. There have been others as well. The OV is very important. If he doesn't take one here, I wouldn't be confident.

 

[PIPO]

Never was about the bag here

So is this a toss up in which we likely trail behind the other options?

 

[SWFLHurricane]

Again....OVs mean nothing when your uncle is on staff, and you've been on campus 100 times....he knows UM like the back of his hand.

Back in those times we didn't have a head coach who could sell a ketchup popsicle to a woman wearing white rubber gloves like we do now

 

[BeastMode]

Kid never seemed to want to come here the whole process.

 

[canesmang1]

if he doesnt come here fire his brother or whatever family member is on staff

 

[Gocanes1990]

I don’t share the confidence some of the others on here do with Bain. I think he’s going to Auburn. Would love to be wrong.

 

[The U is back to work]

if he doesnt come here fire his brother or whatever family member is on staff

Agreed tbh

 

[AtlAtty]

It will be a challenge for the family member on staff to justify their job if they are unable to convince their own family member to attend.

Is he in a recruiting role?
