I'm sure that Mario has plenty more to say. He's trying to build a relationship with the kid and earn his trust. There's more to sell at Miami.
Right, I don't understand why not have a DC in place means that much. Any coach can leave or be fired at any time during he time at whatever school he chooses, so then what. Transfer???? If he decides to go to Georgia or A&M because of that reason then he was never coming to Miami. PERIOD!!!!
PLUS, he’s suppose to be coaching LB’s too.
He not leaving Grandma. The new regime gave him a reason to stay when he was looking for one all along.
He gone.
I think the kid wants to have the DC look him in the eye and tell him that he will use him as a DE and not as a DT. I think its stupid since his body type screams inside rusher on clear passing situations but he wants that assurance. Pretty sure A&M and Georgia are telling him whatever he wants to hear.
Sat down with a UGA coach today, and a few high school guys, including one of Shemar's former coaches.
They don't seem to think he's headed to Miami. Nobody at the table did, and quite a few of them are connected.UGA coach thinks it's down to them and TAMU.
At least one person seemed to think that Miami not having a DC yet is playing a part.
Don't shoot the messenger.
You know how fluid this recruiting stuff is. Let's hope Miami can pull it out.
SIDENOTE: He weighed in at 290 during his visit.
Hypothetically speaking, if he chooses ATM or UGA what would you point to in being the biggest determining factor?
This is all posturing imo. This information being out there gives a reasonable explanation that puts the blame on CMC if Shemar chooses other than UM. It also could be to build suspense which would seem more likely the thought of Moe than Shemar as he is apparently a soft spoken kid.
Doesn’t have to be on the table either. Not scared of Jackson State. Scared of what kind of crap Deion can pull and that the plan is for these kids to transfer when he does to a power five school.
What was ATM’s record for the past few years? Sure they are SEC and what has our record been, but I would hardly call them a winning program/culture. UGA, sure. Bama, sure. ATM, agricultural school in college station, TX, and you want to study marine biology? I question that move all day.
Length of time of recruitment is the only factor besides the DC factor (which I do not believe myself is the reason but the excuse if he chooses elsewhere for Moe to save face). We just got back into this on 12/8 when Mario was hired. A month and a half is all we have had to do this work. I remain hopeful that the draw of playing for the crib and being close to grandma and Moe remains alluring. I still don’t understand for the life of me, given ATMs recruiting at DLine for the past few years, how they remain attractive for a kid like this. So much going for him if he chooses us, so many questions if he chooses ATM. I do wear green and orange glasses and expect a turnaround under Mario, but what has ATM done with Jimbo at the helm and all of their recruiting success? That leads me to believe that time of recruitment is the only factor.
I wouldnt even say timing is a legit factor because Mario pulled Jaleel Skinner at a moments notice and Skinner didnt even have a prior relationship with Mario like that.
