Stud CB Recruit Jayden Nicholas Commits!

Not to get into a petty argument or anything, and I've appreciated our conversations, but couldn't this same logic apply to the players that you are bothered about MSU getting and not UM? If we are saying "well, we can't know that the Arizona, San Diego State, Hawaii, Nevada, San Jose State, UNLV, and Wazzou all made full, non-conditional offers, so I will assume it isn't a true head to head recruiting victory," then perhaps we weren't offering the full rides to players MSU landed, so it wasn't really an apples to apples recruiting victory when they get someone over UM?

Or, maybe after he didn't get the offer he really wanted more than anything, from Oregon State, he was won over by our staff making a pitch that he could go FBS and sit, or come here and compete for a chance to get on the field as a freshman/sophomore and get enough looks to move up to the FBS with a higher profile.

The truth is, we don't know. The only data points we have are public offers, so that's really all we can utilize. This kid had a stack of them from the FBS and the Big Sky. He chose Montana.

Sure. That’s the very optimistic, positive, way to view it.
 
Somebody mentioned that some of the FBS offers might have been conditioning, as if to say they we shouldn't be referring to the FBS offers are a positive. Another of example of neggies posting, in my view. If a conditional offer is what people have just said, who cares? That happens all the time. I think the poster in question was trying to undercut this recruit.

I heard he got into some trouble with sanctions after handing out Labubus to lure them away from their commitments to the Blue Bombers.

A thorough AYSO 6U investigation following my departure confirmed that I had no direct knowledge of any payments, in-kind or otherwise, to athletes during my tenure with the program.

The AYSO should’ve spent its time looking into the full-size lunchables (with capri suns) that the Teal Tigers players were getting for routine after game snacks. Oh, and don’t get me started with their players flaunting their Robux accounts during recess during their championship run. Hmm, interesting stuff, Teal Tiger$.

In the screaming 😱 words of tennis great and great New Yorker John McEnroe screaming at a tennis umpire after a disputed line call:

" Are you serious ? ... You can't be serious !!! "

( I am now looking for my old tennis racket so that I can further imitate John by taking it outside and smashing it into oblivion on my driveway--closest thing I have to a court at The US Open. )

Hi. Really good pickup!

More than likely the WSU and Arizona offers were conditional offers that are no longer there. A very optimistic person can think that UM is beating out Arizona for recruits, but I prefer to stay realistic. Regardless, he looks like a very good player and a very good recruiting win.

Or he connected with Coach McCloud on a level that no other coach did or could.

Another piece of the puzzle could be that WSU/Arizona and other FBS schools wanted him to play WR and he really wants to play CB cause he likes to light up guys coming out of the backfield and shutdown half of the field.

Not sure why being realistic is “negative”?

Because people are saying they are "realistic" when in fact they are just being negative and trying to hide behind being realistic. They aren't; they are being negative. It doesn't surprise me that you say you don't understand because you do this frequently. And you don't understand the game either.
