The Private Equity Firm that is involved with Kodiak Pancakes also is tied to the Miami Design District.

Literally took me 3-4 minutes.
It could mean nothing. But just a little research its amazing what you can find. Not just throw out random thoughts. "Well the Walmart in Gainesville sells those...so he is ours"
The firm is located in Connecticut. As a side note.

Alright then. It appears we have a legitimate offensive line in the process of being assembled.
Haven't seen one of those in about 20 years.
That was On3 pulling a photo of him. Not the kid posting it himself.

Said it many times in this thread but it bears repeating, signing Samson and keeping the rest of the commits in the fold gives Miami the singular best OL class ever seen here by miles.
Yes. Wouldn’t read too much into either. Had a couple friends that worked there. Would think that someone is buddies with either a partner there or one of the founders or executives of Kodiak. I doubt the deal is one that moves the NIL needle and sways the decision. Timing reeks of UF though.

Like you all, I think this kid is the goods but **** he better be. Lot of pressure and self marketing for a **** offensive linemen. Usually this stuff is a headache but this kid seems to have a more business approach which could speak to his maturity.

Was just thinking this. Kind of getting a bust feeling tbh
Yeah it's stupid IMO but if it's really a concern for the kid then Miami presents more opportunities than Gainesville.

Kid seems very smart he is probabaly a cane unless Florida thru a crazy offer his way but I also believe he created all the UF momentum to make Miami up the bag. If he truly wants to play football and be an entrepreneur Miami is 1000x the spot Gainesville is

He won’t.
But he’ll be a good piece moving forward for the OL.
It also shows other kids that Miami is all-in on being a CFP contender year in and year out.

Don't put those expectations on him just yet...
He's handled his recruitment well and hasn't led anyone on.
Took his visits and did his due diligence with his family.
