Quick update

I'll say this. Gilbert Frierson might be on the verge of decommitting.

Remember when I got blasted for saying this a while back? Good times..maybe I actually know what I'm talking about.

 

[Peter Ariz]

Come on Dee I'm not naive

 

[olegs23]

bags bags bags. Is that our only excuse everytime? I mean we basically invented the bag thing. Maybe he sees more PT at Georgia?

 

[Brooklyndee]

Like I've said before, I only come to the board with something like this if there is a real threat of it happening.

Pete is he still coming to Paradise? Some face to face with coaches would help.

It is looking like the ship might sail.

Not really... We're definitely on the fence but were working on it.

 

[Dwinstitles]

Just bring me Jobe Cambell and Hall.............I wasnt ever so high on GF but thats just me

If they were planning on using Frierson at CB, then it's not as big of a loss because he couldn't cover his own shoes at Paradise last year.

yea hes just a nice frame and slow at LB he would good

Thanks for the heads up Pete. Any word on if there's a specific school he's looking at that's causing the decommitment? Or is he making a "business decision" and opening back up his recruitment entirely

Two words. James Coley

Ain't got **** to do with James coley.
Two words. Thomas Jefferson

Ahh yes! He was a great American President indeed. Crazy to think he's still having influence on the game.

Safety is his postion. He's just not a corner

The thing this staff has to do is WIN. Win and win big and you will get big time commits from everywhere, not just SFL. ****, we used to get 'em from everywhere.

Bama dropping bags for Jobe

Ivey just said "I'm not decommitting"

This means nothing. These kids just be saying whatever

We shouldn't have to need to go undefeated to keep legacy kids like Frierson

lol nobody is paying for a 3*

Wow...

As [MENTION=4841]The Franchise[/MENTION] always said, if they're taking visits, they aren't solid

So much for being the ambassador for the class

Franchise is definitely one of the best posters around here. Not knocking him at all. But the way dudes are starting to swing from his nuts is getting weird. Like Franchise is really only/first dude to come up with the idea that if a guys taking visits he's not fully committed? He's probably even starting to feel weirded out

I understand but I never said go undefeated. 8-4 and 9-4 aint gone cut it.

 

[Gables Cane]

Coley sucked as a recruiter at Miami

Coley was top dog at F$U and is doing well at UGA. Common denominator? One guess -- bags filled with cash

 

[Brooklyndee]

I'll say this. Gilbert Frierson might be on the verge of decommitting.

What I'm really curious about Pete is if you know what's really going on with gil & Georgia than why don't you just tell these people about jobe & bama unless you're not aware of it... I've been telling y'all for months we holding on by real thin strings to this class. All that being said no matter what these made schools are doing we WILL be in it until signing day

This is very ominous coming from one of the best insiders on the board. Definitely cause for concern, but I guess we will wait on Pete's response.

This is real simple & people make it more than what it is. If you're not aware COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS A HUGE BUSINESS! some places (sec who doesn't have to deal with legitimate concerns from the ncaa reprisals)are far more invested in it than others... everyone thinks this kid doesn't want to be here oh boo hoo... reality is this & feel free to judge but as a inner city kid who comes from next to nothing or meager at best surroundings what do you realistically expect these kids to say when Nick savant flus a chopper in to drop you off your new car keys,to drop you 200k in cash,to give your family the keys & paperwork to a new house... when Kirby smart hands you 350k... What then? You're all **** liars if you judge these children who are forced to make that call. For some it's a simple game to collect for visits & tweets etc till signing day knowing these people paid upfront. Only so much they can do without ******* themselves than others just take the easy route...

Like, as in $2 bills?

If this staff can't beat James Coley for a legacy kid that's been on campus so much over the last 2 years he practically already has a dorm room, then that's a major fail by Banda & Rumph.

We gotta stop constantly throwing the staff under the bus as a first action. If people don't know the story it's irresponsible to assume it's on the staff... #justsayin
Only so much they can do.

Dee, you know I'm one of the few who actually support the staff when they're being ****ted on by most.

I'm not throwing anybody under the bus, but losing Gilbert to UGA is completely unacceptable, for the simple fact that he's been one of the longest committed recruits we've had.

Maybe he just wants to see what else is out there, but Frank Gore's cousin shouldn't be taking a serious look at UGA just because of the Coley connection.

Frierson is a really good Safety prospect, Idk why the staff wanted him at CB, but he has great upside at FS.
And if he isn't being dropped by us, then that means Coley & UGA swooped him (if it actually happens).

This isn't some out of state kid or a typical South Fla diva, this is a kid who's been to campus more than any other player in this class & was all about the U until recently.

Just letting him go to UGA just doesn't sound or look right, regardless of whoever else is supposed to be coming.

We "invented the bag thing"?

It's always amusing to see posters who didn't actually attend Miami try to claim that we pay players. If you actually went to UM and saw how these players live you'd know that's just a lie. The NCAA did the most exhaustive investigation in their history with Shapiro, and never found anything more than him buying meals/bottles for players.

You have to be either dumb or just incredibly naive to think the huge booster networks that buy recruits like they're livestock don't exist at SEC schools. Go to Bama olegs, go look at all the $50k cars these kids are driving, then come back and tell me that we're on a level playing field with that. ****, we kicked 3 guys off the team just for driving rented luxury cars.

Not every kid is going to take Bama or Georgia's money. But they couldn't recruit against us (especially freaking Georgia) without it

Take a step back with the nut swinging comments my friend. The reason Franchise was tagged is because he was one of the main people vocalizing this sentiment when no one else seemed to feel similarly during the last recruiting cycle. Yes, there are definitely other people who may have said the same during the same period of time or afterwards, but he was the one who remained adamant about it when everyone else was pretending as if visits elsewhere didn't matter

Regardless, what is it to you whether someone tags the Pope or someone tags Franchise? The comment remains the same, kids who don't visit aren't likely to come here. Kids who are committed who visit elsewhere are potentially going to flip
