all signs point to Scarlett trolling us which is almost as disappointing as losing his commitment. Don't understand the need to sh*t on a school and its fans that you have been committed to for the better part of a year. If you change your mind, so be it. Just be respectful
THIS^^^
I don't understand what kids get out of ******** a school that has offered them an opportunity to be a legend in your home town/city...
Nobody down here cares too much about Amari Cooper even though he is a beast...
(Yeah, yeah he made the best decision for him bs...[kid would have still been a first rounder at UM, we produce NFL WRs and feature our good ones well, just wouldn't have won a NC])
You know why he isn't as big of a deal down here as say Duke Johnson(who won't be taken nearly as high in the draft)?
B/c he left his home town fans that watched him blossom into what he became as a HS senior to go make Bama hot, instead of staying home and repping his city and becoming part of bringing Miami back.
If he stayed home and played for UM, he would be a legend down here like Andre Johnson, Santana Moss, Michael Irvin etc...
Now you take Jordan Scarlett:
We have known about this kid since he was a Fr and many on here from even before then...
Followed him, watching all of his highlights, reading articles hoping one day he might become part of the solution here...
Most UF fans probably don't even know who he is and the ones that really follow recruiting just found out about this kid when their new coach started coming after him...
Now they are all over his twitter showing him love...
And outside of what he can do for them on a football feild, they don't give a **** about him...
Just another "work horse" to them...
When he is family down here...
After following Sony Michel since his 8th grade year and thinking he was a "Cane Lock" only to see him sign with UGA was a kick in the nuts, but losing Jordan Scarlett this late right before NSD without being able to secure a decent back up would be even worse and downright disrespectful to UM and all the fans that have done nothing but support him.
Especially with the fact that we desperately need him along with Mark Walton next year to help replace Duke...
