Travis Rudolph decommits

He didn't even tell the coaches that he de-committed.

Not good. Oh well on to the next one.

Rudolph has strong ties to the 'Canes program, so they may not be out of it. A few of his family members played at UM and his high school head coach Steve Walsh led "The U" to a national championship.

He stated, "I talked it over with my family and I decided to de-commit publicly. I haven't talked to the coaches, but I don't want to be listed as a committed prospect anymore."

I'm not even that upset about it. But, one observation: you could tell this kid has a certain level of cowardice. He has essentially been decommitted or wanting to decommit for months. The reasons it took him so long is because he was scared of the confrontation involved with the coaching staff and the negative attention that comes with doing it. So, he spent some time building up courage and little excuses to grasp to (OMG look at the label on my name tag! how can I spend 4 years here?!). He finally decommits, literally months after deciding he wanted to in his head, and he doesn't even have the courtesy to tell the coaches that gave him his 1st scholarship offer.

Coward. I hope we don't continue to recruit him. He is good, but not THAT GOOD. I hope he stays adamant on playing WR, because then we are especially not missing out on much. Losing him at CB and him playing CB elsewhere would kinda suck.
 
The key is not to continue to recruit him. He slandered Coach Golden and his staff. If he wants back in then a public apology ought to be a requirement. He's just a kid but he needs to learn that there are consequences whn you are coached into publically making an accusation of dishonesty.

Im just wondering because Jojo basically in the interview sounded more commited to UM then FSU and he barely brought them up at least Travis bashed us but Jojo sounded like he forget about FSU

Lol. Hurlie asked him not to decommit when Travis wanted to the first time. Staff tried to hold onto him, and wasn't good enough.

Toilet paper, you're saying how he decommitted wasn't cowardly? Not even informing the first coaches to have enough faith in your talent to offer you that you intend to decommit.

Let me guess, you're one of those "the players/recruits can never do wrong, the coaches are always to blame" guys
 
The dude named UF his leader 2 days after we signed Griffin. Scared of comp, and we're better for it!
 
When you dont tell a staff you are decommiting then you lose all trust. He talks about not trusting us but he does this **** now i know he's gone its about RESPECT

Let me guess you're one of those "Golden and staff can do no wrong, it's always the player fault" guys. Right? See how that works..... Travis HAS CALLED his recruiter to decommit before and he was asked not to. You're saying he was scared of confrontation. How is that the case? When he FIRST wanted to decommit he called to let UMS staff know. Hurlie persuaded him not to for the time being. How I that being a coward. Don't change stories........
 
Bye n***@. NEEEXT! Someone on here had me rollin the other day sayin his head resembled a cylinder or a piston or some **** like that. The Rock can tell u what to do with that name tag if you don't like it. Someone please insert that Rock gif, I would but have no clue have to.

Toilet paper, I believe that when a group of 100+ people come together trying to accomplish something fail in one way or another that the fault blame varies greatly from situation to situation. I believe sometimes the players ***** up, sometimes the coaches fail the players, and sometimes the recruits are cowards or mentally unstable. It is this thing called rational thought and unbiased observation. I would ask you to try it, but I know you're too far gone.

So, you blame the coaches for failing to recruit him well enough as the reason for his decommitment. Then, you turn around and cite how he was hinting at decommitting and Hurlie convinced him not to. Sounds like adept recruiting to me.

I never changed stories, from the get-go of my first post, my reasons for hinting at Rudolph's potential cowardice were two-fold. 1.) How he lingered around as a pseudo-decommit for months and 2.) how he opted not to even personally inform the coaching staff now when he has decomitted. That doesn't sit right with me, and to be honest neither do you.

I doubt we will end up seeing eye to eye because I see how you spend all day on this site, "like"-ing every post that is criticizing anything the staff does and then you pop in to hate on posters whenever they question a recruit or player.

There are plenty of instances where the coaches have screwed and have left more to be desired. I'm not some pick one side of the fence and stay there regardless of rationale type of fan. I also can say that the coaches had a slip up with how they approached Rudolph's recruitment in regards to whether they were really open to the idea of him coming in at WR or if they just wanted him at DB. You will probably talk out of one side of your mouth about how the coaches should have told him what he wanted to hear and told him he could be a WR even though it likely wasn't true. But, I bet if we would have just told him what he wanted to hear, got him, and then placed him at DB, then you would have talked about how these coaches are scumbags, liars, and can't be trusted.

I get it. I also don't want to get into a back and forth with you on here because I'm pretty sure you spend ALL DAY on this site, and I don't have the interest in talking back and forth with toilet paper when it is a beautiful saturday outside.

Obviously you're mad. Didn't read your essay, but continue your homerism all you want.
 
Hope he finds a school with a thin WR roster where he can play lots at the position he wants. Also glad we don't have that problem here. We may not have all positions covered, but that one is looking good and I'm thinking some other kids in this class and next will only make it better.
