I don’t think that’s accurate. Gotten some right. Either way, gives us something to banter about which is better than nothing. Could always go back to discussing the finer points of LA with NOLA.
like what? that shorter is available? or that someone is coming for a visit? And posting it after its public knowledge? C'mon man, I figured you for smarter than falling for this, despite your naval background :grin:

I don’t believe any of it but it is entertaining. And I’m way too lazy to hunt down public knowledge - which is why I like this site. Great aggregator of facts, opinions, BS, etc. from the internet.

And a hooah making a “smart” joke? Ok....:scratchhead:

Meh - at least it’s entertaining. I’ll take quasi-reliable insider info over twitter reposts all day. At least it lets me hope.

So Manuel was the only "meh" take with grades and has been showing improvement. There are also talks that they are going to move Graham to WR so with that and Shorter, in addition to the 2021 class being heavy top WR, the staff feels we are ok there.
So.... #SecretCommits?

Yea, Twitter is hot garbage and people trying to be the "first" to say things most of which are inaccurate. Same goes around here for the Lakeland to UF pipeline and assuming we'd land Bowman....just false on all points.

That being said, I in no way consider myself an insider, just close to someone who is behind the curtain and gives me a heads up every now and then. For whatever reason, I then like to share what Im told here only to get annihilated when it changes.

Fortunately its a message board and doesn’t matter in real life.

There is no doubt in my mind the staff thought they were going to land these kids and were telling the beat reporters to expect big things. They certainly ACTED like they expected to land those kids vs now looking for Plan F options.

We arent really banging on you as much as your faith in what you are being told.

I think we are at a point where we can kiss Jamyr Gibbs goodbye.....dude has way too much attention on him from the big boys now for us to compete. Late to the party again. I do think we will compete for the playoffs next year with the team we do have, but it is getting rather aggravating offering these studs late thinking they will jump ship.

Everybody was late recruiting this kid hence why he committed to ga tech because none of the big boys were going after him

Which is no different than any of the other big boys that had others higher on the board and are now circling back to go after Gibbs now that they missed on other targets. Hypothetically say Gibbs would have jumped on a UF offer this summer you all would be vilifying this staff for taking a lower ranked kid and not fighting for the Bowman’s of the world.

Not picking on you, but it's the guys that just say it's a done deal with no background. It's redundant but you almost have to preface every post with "FWIW, I am reading/hearing from an insider board/a contact in the AA/my azzhole that so and so is a commit" Obviously nobody knows a fcking thing and is just repeating information. You're gonna get slammed when you don't say where that information is coming from.

My personal feeling is that all insider information is BS. Unless they've actually seen a kid sign on a dotted line nobody knows WTF he's going to do on signing day.
