How Many CIS Laws of Recruiting Can Mario Eradicate?

Two new laws courtesy of @AUcane

33. You can't pull a high 4*/5* OL from the Midwest that ND/Michigan want.
34. You can't pull a 4*/5* DT from the Deep South that upper tier $EC schools want.

2025 - Owen Strebig 4* OL from WI

Yeah I don't think it's likely but I felt the same about Justin Scott so I doubt we give up True, but Scott gave every indication he was willing to listen. Don't think it's the same situation here.

I missed this one with the late Blount flip. Blount & Scott broke that 5* DT rule.

27. You can't pull two or more 5* DTs in the same cycle

New Law courtesy of @pacusmc . The consensus in that thread is this is the most ironclad recruiting law in existence. Even the most staunch Mario apologists say he's got no chance to flip him.

35. You can't flip a 5* DT from rural GA commmitted to UGA when they're consistently in contention for a championship.​

2025 - Justus “Jay” Terry 5* DT from Manchester, GA

25 UGA commit Justus “Jay” Terry offered last February. @DMoney mentioned him in the February 17 Recruiting Bank so this recruitment needs to be monitored for a potential flip.

Rule 29 was broken too. We got two DTs and one DE. All three were five stars.

Yep, Lightfoot's late ratings bump broke that rule. Good catch.

29. You can't pull three or more 5* DLs in the same cycle​

36. You can't flip an elite (High 4*/5*) LA-based CB that's already committed to L$U

Blount isn’t a DT …

JoJo did some damage to the CIS Recruiting Laws tonight

16. 5* SFL Receivers are mercenaries and will never commit/play for UM.
20. Can't pull a legit 5* recruit from SFL.

You also gotta bring these back

Elite thread - thank you for compiling

Before I add a new law, can someone please explain to me the Armwood curse?

Hoping all of them….

Double layered as far as we’re concerned. The first layer pertains to our being historically unsuccessful in recruiting Armwood prospects. Pringle is the first player we’ve landed from there in what will be 38 years once he’s officially in.

Thankfully, we’ve been protected by the second layer of the Armwood curse. That school has produced an ASTRONOMICAL amount of busts. Picture any scenario that would call for a kid to not pan out in college and Armwood has a guy that could serve as an example under virtually any of those circumstances.

You need to edit #22 and #23 now that Saban has retired.

Also I'm much more hopeful of #3 and #4 for the same reason.

Thanks for the background on this curse. Two laws added (one for each curse)

37. Miami can never sign a kid from Armwood
38. Even if Miami signs an Armwood kid, they will be a bust (or at best a JAG)

Laws modified. I'll grant you that Saban's expertise was CB recruiting, but its still no small feat to beat Bama out for CBs.

22. You can't win multiple head to head battles w/Bama and Saban for 4*/5* CBs in the same cycle
23. You can't win multiple head to head battles w/Bama and Saban for CBs playing in Heritage and Lakeland in the same cycle

You're right, if I count star upgrades, I have to count downgrades too. #16 is back on the table. #20 remains off. Blount was rated a 5*

Couple laws in jeopardy after Pringle's committ.

37. Miami can never sign a kid from Armwood
38. Even if Miami signs an Armwood kid, they will be a bust (or at best a JAG) <----TBD, we won't know this for a couple of years.

If you look at the original Pringle thread, I said that this would be the Armwood kid that I’d roll the dice on. On the surface, he seems to be bucking the main reasons most kids in general flop in college.

He isn’t overrated, in fact he’s a guy that should rise after this track season and upcoming football season. The kid ain’t maxed out physically, so there’s room to grow.

Coach Merritt has been advertised as a man of high character, so I highly doubt he’d be hitching his wagon to a head case, especially given that this is his first recruiting cycle.

Lastly, if Pringle can’t shave a nanosecond off of his track times from today, he’d still be plenty fast enough for the next two levels of football. The kid has great to elite NFL speed right now. That’s something that none of the highly touted Armwood backs of the past had.

If the kid works hard and stays healthy, I’d say his floor would be a change of pace guy that’s a strong P4 contributor. Ceiling??? 30 foot vaulted…

Added a new law #39 courtesy of @SaiyaMan305

39. Miami can't pull an elite 5* or 4* kid from TX.

after reading the overwhelming evidence posted by @Memnon

2025 - Adrian Wilson 4* WR from Pflugerville, TX

MOAR TX WRs! Gaby says Current Oregon commit Adrian Wilson is visiting today as part of a 7v7 tourney. How firm is current commitment is IDK. He's already flipped once from TCU to Oregon only a month after his original commitment. I don't see a UM offer on his offer list or a tweet about an...

OP updated

40. Miami will never sign a recruit (especially a WR recruit) named Tyler Williams, no matter how much a layup it might seem.​
