People forget that we're dealing with kids here....16-18, sometimes 15 yo kids. We're the ones who need to get a grip with how we spew venom when these kids send out random tweets or even when they commit to another school although signing day is months away and our staff still has an opportunity to flip them. So, next time you want to go off on a kid, breath and think before you hit post reply.
Nobody forgets this, if you have been following recruiting for awhile we all know:
1. We're dealing with kids,
2. We see the same circus every year (all-star games, OV, hat picking, delaying signing an LOI etc.),
3. The same divas (I don't want to go to FSU, let me out of my LOI)
It is the same insanity just new names and faces. We get it, kids are immature but you have to remember the following:
A. We're Miami fans, we're biased to things that are anti-Miami. This is key, when we see kids propping up RIVAL schools (not just other schools) who are committed to Miami we get ****ed off. Our fans should be mad at this, our fans should NOT respect this behavior since we support the program and don't want our commits to support the rival. The fans don't care about the age of the kid, they want things to be PRO MIAMI and that is more than understandable. What do you want the fans to do, reward this behavior? Applaud his anti-Miami efforts.
B. This kid plays QB, he is supposed to be the leader. The spotlight is always on the QB. In addition, he is on the record saying he will recruit for us, how does it look to potential players that our QB is propping up FSU and UF. This behavior once, is a mistake and understandable. Maybe the kid is excited. Now it is several times and both rivals. It is more than a joke. Then the other thing that works against him is Brad Kaaya is sucking every potential recruit off and recruiting for Miami. In fact Alin and Brad are at opposite ends of the spectrum.
C. The BS we're looking, so I'm looking. That is great. If Alin wants to look around and suck off rivals, then go de-commit and move on. If not, deal with the consequences of said behavior from the fans.
