Did Darren Branch just flip

[BigBoi]

Prob the first of several. And posters on other threads arguing about taking 25 or more. I hope we can get at least 20.

This isn't last year. We will be able to a full class if we want to this year.

Ok. Thanks for the info Mel. Just wanted to make sure you weren’t trolling.

 

[We the Boss]

I think we get to 25 this year. We got a lot of kids that want in, whether or not they are Miami caliber that’s the question.

They aren’t. That’s the answer.

 

[Memnon]

Liked him but he is replaceable. Meanwhile, our DB recruiting for this cycle continues to be laughable.

How much confidence do you have in this staff to replace him though?

He was our highest rated DB in this class & he's gone just like the rest, now we're down to Clarke who's 2 years away from being ready & Washington who's a FIU level player & shouldn't even be in this class.

Everybody keeps saying just land Harrell & Francois as if this staff has shown they have the capability to do that lol. While one of those kids has already decommitted from this staff twice lol.

The funny part is people will just continue to move the goalposts & justify every failure from them & hit us with the ole "next year's class is loaded!" Like these coaches are going to land a bunch of elite DB's next year lol.

Harrell, Harrell, OL, OL, Flowe

 

[Bipolarcane]

They aren’t. That’s the answer.

Let’s see how it plays out.

Let’s see how it plays out.

Agree. The bottom third of this class isn’t up to standards IMO. We are back to Randy post 08 level recruiting.

Assuming he was Replaced with Harrell..I think we were recruiting branch at safety..kid committed career suicide by going to ole miss

All valid points. And even with Harrell and Francois, we need another pure CB in this class. This kid was the closest to that. I’m with you though, #clusterfvck

Would you bet your account there won’t be anymore decommits?

 

[Hurracanes]

This. Staff. *******. Sucks.

Our bottom of the class are guys who are highly productive players at the HS level ..nothing like randy was taking..except for riggins and maybe smith who might not qualify..but guys like Flagg, Restrepo, Mathis, Clarke are the lower rated guys you take..and assuming for a second we close we Harrell and jaiden is truly “committed”..whatever we’ll see what’s what on signing day

 

[AHURT12]

If a guy has to stay closer to home there is zero anyone can do about it. It is what it is. We'll be more than fine.

 

[MiamiChris]

This. Staff. *******. Sucks.

We do have some flaws in recruiting

 

[Page305]

Names? Or you’re full of sh*t

You really think I care or have that much time to remember individual names? I just know when he committed, majority of the board didn't want him. You can go back and find the thread if you like.

If that's the case, Manny will be hitting the transfer portal again.

 

[LatinCane]

Best of luck to him. Let’s keep trying to finish strong with a great class!

I get it, I'm just not interested in all the hand wringing until after the LOIs have been signed - then feel free to criticise the class based on who we signed. At the moment 'recruiting is flexible'.

Just as I suspected, you’re full of sh*t
