Valentine Thread: Set to visit this weekend....maybe.

My sources are telling me to hold onto your butts.

Valentine
JC Jackson
Scarborough
Gaillard

Of that list, getting Valentine back on board would make it a very successful weekend.

Adding any of the others is an outstanding close IMO.

According to the Miami Herald Al Golden visited Valentine today and he is visiting this weekend. He owes that much at least to Hurlie Braown who is his recruiter and the person who will take the heat. Folks LSU is not Alabama and I think Golden gets a National Championship before Miles!

Too late. Miles already has one.

Too bad Les has already won a National Championship.
 
Wonder if AG showed up at the school unannounced.

He probably had on one of those old gag glasses/rubber nose/ fake mustache combos, and fell into his classroom through the air vents.

That's only after he got by Genron and Miles' armed guards outside, right?
 
Al Golden stopped by to see Valentine at school today. Valentine seemed impressed and is all set to take his OV this weekend. Not done yet!!
 
Pete, what do you think is the major reason we are losing out on so many local studs? Is it scheme? Winning? Staff? Lack of relationship with handlers/coaches/community influences? Money? all of the above?

Relationships.

Relationships with?

Coaches/Handlers

For as much as people hate the term "handler", this is how the recruiting game is played today and I'm not talking about paying them. Yearby would not be a Hurricane if not for the relationship between Coley and his handler. That's just how it works.
Is it only South Florida that have "handlers"? Why would a kid need a handler if he has a good parent(s) guiding him and protecting his interest? If that is the case, then it speaks volume to the lack of family structure and good parenting in the community. Sorry to have to say that but that is the obvious explanation to me.

We didn't hear of "handlers" during Deon Bush and Tracey Howard recruitment. Both come from good family guided by strong parenting The talented kids who have weak family support who are the ones who need handlers. Unfortunately, they are abundant in SF.

Agree with you in principle but I did see a lot of people with that F$U stuff about Bush and the handler $$$ about Howard. NONE of which was true. Our fans tend to do that though.

TV is a once a generation player so he is the kind of kid that money could be involved with but sometimes its just the Kid and no $$$ involved.

Wasn't to long ago that when Sticks/Geno etc went to WVU everyone claimed Damon was $elling his players, right up until Malcolm and Howard shut that nonsense up.

Al needs to feed these remaining recruits all the slick talking used car sales crap he can muster. Guy has the BOTC behind him, hopefully he can convince these younguns too.

Quiet Period on Sunday and Dead Period starts Monday...so yeah, there was no better time to use that bullet than right now
