2024 OL Isendre “Papa” Ahfua

Yeah the distance excuse at this point is ridiculous given that he’s spent time here and shown active interest (when we’re already far) for a while and couple that with him going to Texas 8-4 rather than close by

Weren't you one of the ones that said Mario got this **** a few weeks back.

Sure was. You feel smarter cause you said he didn't? You are. You win....which means the team we support loses. Makes sense.

FWIW, I saw a comment that the distance was too far for him.

Like it or not, there are other factors these kids think about.

True. Justin Scott is a good example. Miami was too far for his mom. Osu is a 45 minute flight from Chicago.

 

[JHallCanes]

This would be devastating

Losing guys like Stewart…eh…

People throwing around the “getting bodied” line way too much but this would be like we just got nuts dragged across our face on a dunk

Yeah the distance from Seattle to Coral Gables is probably less travel time than Seattle to TAMU bumble Texas.

Edit: I just checked it is so not sure this makes any sense

Member guys, it’s only August. I’m not going to panic until our top targets start committing elsewhere and we start seeing new offers going out to unknown targets…..

Isn't that the same reason why Justin Scott choose the BuckEyes.

Signed,

Not coming at you but that's just an excuse imo. If you're going all the way from Washington to Texas, who cares about going to Miami? It's like an extra 2 hours flying maybe.

 

[supacane]

You pointed out 3 guys. He has over a 91.4% accuracy rate in 2024 kids. Sure there's a chance he's wrong again...but it ain't big.

Delusional.

The big battles where the kids are guarded are what i care about, not some kids thats been hinting where they leaning. The ones where the kids have been really guarded, they have been getting them wrong, much more than previously. Aint nobody delusional.

How much of that 91.4% werent even hard to guess where the kid was going?

 

[Caneoverhere]

This trend of misses has to be directly related to NIL.

It’s the same or less travel time. From Seattle you’d connect in Dallas. There’s non stop flights from Seattle to Miami. Hoya just brought up what another poster said so not sure if it’s a real reason given but if it is it’s an excuse for other things.

 

[Reyrey]

So is it NIL or the coaching staff? The issue has to be somewhere.

Neither 5-7

 

[BS85]

It’s competitive…just not compelling.

Big difference.

Are we at least matching big time schools?

Distance only became a factor once the money wasn’t straight

 

[Geddy Lee]

All of the above. And going 5-7 didn't help matters.

I'm not saying that as if I've won anything. As you said we all lose and I'm truly disappointed for us all. I said it more as if maybe you'll pause the next time you want to shame us for being skeptical before you decide to be.

 

[gacaneaddict]

It's only a 33 hour car ride to College Station, TX! Has to be the reason!

 

[moshated305]

Probably about the same because you definitely can find direct flights from Seattle to Miami. But you aren't finding anything direct from Seattle to College Station.

Not buying the distance line. Maybe TAMU offered more or maybe the kid just wants to play in the SEC.

 

[MumbleRap]

Neither 5-7

What was A&Ms record last year? Asking for a friend.

I'm a glass half full kinda dude. Just the way it is. And as I said in this thread, I'll wait until the ink is dried before I judge anything. But the road to the Top 10 isn't looking great as we sit here on 8/7, I will say that.
