I never said he committed to meyer dumbass. I said meyer and his staff did the majority of his recruiting. He committed shortly after muschamp took over before he was even done with his junior year
You can thank Duke's Mother for this if it happens. IF she privately reached out to UM/Golden after her remarks why didn't she make some sort of statement in the media?
Dukes mom now responsible! WTF! Why do you stupid MUTHAFUKAS keep wanting to blame everyone else for Goldies catastrophic failures in recruiting, games and coaching? I love the Canes and always will, but we got ONE problem! Al Golden has not been fired!
One thing you learn in life is that sometime it's better to air dirty laundry privately. I'm not saying she should not have said anything--it's her prerogative to say what she wants. I sometime wish she hadn't; it gives me a little bit of a bitter taste about Duke's wonderful career at and dedication to the U. I don't know exactly what problems she's aware of that we aren't--you can say we know how bad the coaching is, and how bad the program is run. I can also understand how she, Duke and his friends/teammates might be very disappointed by the outcome of the season, despite Duke's own personal outstanding year. I kind of wish she had not said anything because it might be hurting the program. I'm not one who wants to destroy everything and hope some savior is going to come in and rebuild it back to championship form. I'm of the view that, at least at this point, it's better to keep supporting the staff we have and hope things get better. As I've said before, I think AG's days at UM are numbered anyway. I don't see the coaching ability he needs for this job.
Any sign of dissension can be deadly, though. I also understand that many--including me--are very unhappy with the current state of affairs.
I don't think they are going to make a change now, while the whole university is in a state of flux while a new president is sought. It' not the time for the BOT to worry about a football coach. The new pres might want to look at the athletic department from top to bottom. I also don't think Butch will be in the cards, just because I think the bridges have been burnt. Who knows, though? I thought the same of Art Kehoe after he sued the program.

Dude idk what part of the state you live in but im in tampa and i can tell you for a fact that meyer was personally recruiting jones when he was at armwood. you keep thinking whatever you want bro. thats your deal, but your wrong on jones and with teblow. idk what i really expect from a gaytor though.
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...
I agree with you regarding some fans and that connection, but that certainly isn't the majority. I just found his post extremely pious, which was absurd. There are some fans who have a personal connection with recruits but the majority would not know who they were much less cared if they didn't play football well. Proof? Look at how posters trash guys who are seen as not worthy of a scholarship, nobody wants him at their school if they think he can't play. So my point in all this, let's just be real. Miami fans want Scarlett at their school for the same reason every other school does, because he's **** good. Not because of 'family' or any other nonsense. If he was some 2-star recruit with barely any offers nobody would want him
I understand where you're coming from but I think it's not as accurate with this particular fanbase. There's still a sense of (no relation to the spin hashtag) unity within Miami to keep our own here. Obviously no team wants players that can't play. But ask a Miami fan if they prefer a NR player from NJ or a NR player from home, and we'll pick the Miami boy each time.
It's the same reason that, despite Miami being a "Pro" town, when we're on top there's nothing like it. It feels diff than when the heat are on top, or even the dolphins. And it's bc it's mostly this city's sons on the team. So perhaps family may be too strong of word, but it's certainly more than just a fan wanting x-player. And not to be cliche man, but it really is a Cane thing, you just wouldn't understand.
Nothing just that he visited him todayAnyone know what this says?
