He isn’t conflicted. He’s playing Miami.
This. Tweed said a while back that he didn't see Jobe signing with Miami (who's nephew is the ambassador of the class). Some of us saw his constant flirtation with Bama back in the Spring and saw the tea leaves early on. The constant that we heard from Pete and others is that we had to do two things:
1) Have a good winning season showing Miami is making progress
2) Keep recruiting him
Miami's lived up to both, yet this kid's ready to flip at any moment (Pete reported that his decommitment could come last week and that he has been ignoring coaches from Miami when they attempted to reach him). Jobe was never going to come to Miami. He didn't see Miami having the season they had along with the improvement shown. If we had an 8-win season, he had a ready made excuse - Miami's crap. But we were the nationally relevant team that everyone talked about. He didn't have the same built-in excuse like the Ridley's, the Cook's, the Jeudy's, etc.. He's leaving the home team when we're on the rise.
People can come out on their soap box and act like they're hard. This has nothing to do with whining about a certain recruit - it's about taking off the homer glasses and paying attention to the actions and developments of what's going on.
