Randy Russell decommits -- more info

[Southbeach44]

So easy to fall in love with this dudes tape. He hits. He tackles in his highlights. Coaches and scouts have seen something though. If we are not re- re crootin, then he just is not good enough. Even though he was only a 3*, he is a very good player from SoFl. It speaks volumes for this class on the DB side if he de commits and we don't give a flying F@#k.

I think RR can play and he could prolly play for us. I don't know if he could make an impact early though. We got guys committed right now that can and will contribute early. Hopefully this makes room for another.

I will say this and maybe Pete can attest.... the staff here knows what's up and I'm sure this did not take them by surprise hence them looking at other prospects the last couple weeks

Yup, Pete mentioned it the other day.

Pete also said that Russell was solid and communicating with the staff that he was solid while on his UF visit. Either Pete was out of the loop, or this came up rather suddenly.

Fact of the matter is recruiting is dynamic. Things constantly change. Pete might have some info or whatever but I wouldn't take everything he says as gold. Maybe what he said was true at the time but chit changes. Some of y'all need to take a few steps back and chill.

I think they do GAF but it's a question of resources. If this kid can't look at his game and see how well he fits in Diaz system, you're not going to convince him to stick.

Sucks that we lost him for multiple reasons. Most importantly he was a known commodity.

Current DB class has a few question marks. Obviously the staff isn't convinced either.

Ivey is a mystery. Frierson is decent. Jobe and Hall are going to be a battle till the end. We elite corners not another Ryan Mayes

Frierson is decent? Ivey is a mystery?

What a terrible opinion. And Russell isn't even a corner, much less an elite one, genius

Aint gonna lie I liked Randy Russell over some of the other safeties..he's better then Derrick Smith and Romeo Finley..Kids whove played against him said he is the hardest hitting dude in the county.... I'm sorry I dont have trust in Jobe staying...and I like RR over Frierson...it is what it is.. Not really worried now..but I really liked this dude

On a scale of 1 to Gus Edwards though....

If Verne liked him, it's definitely a good thing he's gone.

The best part about these past few months is how they have almost completely shut this hater up

Oh, look who shows up from his two month nap. You can always count on NoleVern to make an appearance when there's a decommit. Not so much with all the great recent recruiting news we've had.

Aside from awful posts about losing recruiting momentum and constant paranoia, i'm not sure you bring anything else of value to this board.

You're seeing too. He's a troll. He'll sprinkle in subversive posts like this, sly badmouthing Pete, and then to keep the mods off the trail will throw some positive ones in.

I'm on to this gator fairy.

NoleVern back at it...we missed laughing at you the past few months pal

He is an OBVIOUS troll.

No way I take him over Derek Smith, kid is tiny compared to smith . Derek is also a good athlete for his size.

Russell’s teammate at Miami-Carol City High, four-star running back Cam’Ron Davis, told 247Sports he is “staying at Miami” despite his friend’s departure from the recruiting class.

 

[imurcane]

...and I got an infraction cause I said he wouldn't stick in the thread were he committed. his commitment was just a placeholder for him. he was playing us all along.

Boi gtfoh. No 3 star safety is in any position to play us right now.

you gtfoh. i knew from the beginning. i said what I knew. i mentioned on the board and everyone gave me ****. its not a big deal to me. i don't care what his stars are. I just stated something I knew as a fact, 100%. those people who gave me ****...well, their chickens are coming home to roost. everyone close to his family knows mama wants him out of town.

When a kid commits, it is odd to say it won't stick. You were correct this time. Congrats! I don't think that is the right time to be banging the he won't stick drum!

 

[Mansa Musa]

I think Frierson should have always been at safety anyway. Russell leaving lets Frierson play at his natural position and gives us a even better look at safety....addition by subtraction.

 

[AL CANE]

As long as Hall sticks we are fine. He is just as much of a thumper and is a much better athlete than Russell.

Too many DB's... Miami will be fine. Al Blades Jr. Coming next. I wouldn't be surprised if Ivey flips

 

[Canes1968]

Yeah, I don't see Ivey flipping. He's one of, if not the most solid, of all our DB commits. Don't just assume because he's the lowest rated that he might be a flip candidate.

Bama and osu do this ever year, but when we do it, It's a problem smh

That's exactly what I'm saying, another school will offer more playing time to him early. NONE of these kids look like cane locks except for Gilbert Frierson & Al Blades jr

Ivey isn't going anywhere , and is the best cover guy of the bunch. We need him in this class.
