I will explain everything I can about the Mims situation once it is final. As for Mesidor and Johnson, I am unaware of either taking visits right now, ‘might’ be taking a visit is a completely different statement to ‘has a visit lined up/will visit’ and as of talking to someone more plugged in than Gaby and Gary this morning, neither of them have said they are taking additional visits and Miami expects both of them to announce for Miami soon. Feel free to link me where either player has a visit to another school. Mesidor, admittedly, Miami has been watching USC closely but given what happened on his visit, I would be surprised if he did. However, Caleb taking any other trips? That would fly in the face of what I heard. Again, it’s the word of those I trust (who clown on 247 and Rivals on a regular basis) against the national sites. Believe what you want, we all have the right to express options, just don’t state them as facts.

I just dont think location is as big a factor as some think. Granted I may be thinking of it more from my point of view than the kid and his parents but objectively...

The clock is running. He already tried the Georgia thing. It didnt work out the way he planned. Having someone in your family have a chance to play in the NFL is such a 1 in a million shot. They have a smaller window now of getting this right to set him up where the NFL will want him.

1. He needs coaching. He is not a polished, finished product

2. He needs opportunity. A school who has a desperate need for a tackle asap

3. He needs to be put in the best position to be successful and get some good tape out. That means having a surrounding cast. Having a good group of OL with you, a QB (hopefully one with a quick release where he doesnt have to neutralize a DE for too long), and solid RB's which can really make an OL look good

4. They need a heckuva NIL deal in case he doesnt make it to the NFL. Cash in as much as they can now while the demand is there


Location should be pretty far down on the list of the variables they have to weigh right now. But that's just me if I'm in their shoes.

We must be the only two on the board who think this way on the bold.

Yeah Leeds. My post you responded to was just me messing around. I don’t doubt your info at all.

The location part is tied to the parents. The parents apparently want him closer to home, it’s not a far fetched consideration. The other part is trust, they trust Adkins or whatever his name is. Is he anywhere close to the coach Mirabal is? **** naw, but it doesn’t matter if the kid and his family trust him.

The UGA thing was working out, it just wasn’t moving along as fast as he wanted it. He wants immediate playing time, both schools offer it. If he wants to win, I’d say we are the better option because we are heading in a better direction but let’s be honest here, we are both middling programs with an elite pedigree trying to break through.

Supporting cast is great and all but reality is if he is good he could get noticed on an 0-12 team. Khalil Mack became the #3 pick playing for Buffalo.

NIL does matter and we have an advantage here for sure. This and coaching.

I agree that if he is level headed Miami is the choice, but human beings aren’t always level headed and are influenced but outside forces such as parents. FSU is a viable choice even if it may strongly seem like a foolish choice. Don’t get it twisted, I think it is with out a doubt a major mistake for him but I understand why he may make that mistake.

I agree with what you are saying. Maybe you are misinterpreting my post. I’m not making a case why Miami is a better choice than FSU. The facts do that actually. I’m simply making the case why I believe location isn’t as big a deal as some think. But again…my disclaimer is that I’m thinking this way. The parents may not be.

It's the same thing we saw all the time with local recruits in the Golden through Diaz regimes- do they go with their heart (UM) or their head (bag schools with top programs like Bama). 99 times out of 100, they make the "business decision." UM has the far better staff now and the rich dudes supporting the program will dwarf any NIL being offered by FSU boosters. FSU is laying it on thick and giving him a lot to think about, but at the end of the day he will make the better business decision.

This doesn’t sound positive regarding Mims.

Until Cribby or Leeds say otherwise I'm not worried. Y'all are freaking out about a ferman update who has been trashed on this board for years for not knowing sh*t. **** everyone mocked him yesterday for saying he committed and going along with warchant. And for gabby? His recent track record is shaky at best.
