    Per Roof, he's 6'5 270 rather than the 6'2.5 255 reported on his 247 profile that was made...today

    This kinda feels like the Chip Kelly-I-hate-recruiting-so-we-will-take-any-player-as-long-as-I-dont-have-to-do-fucking-anything approach. Definitely got me intrigued.

    And how would the optics look if Jimmy pulled the offer to this local kid? Gee Scott would go crazy.

    Don’t get me wrong...this is weird...but if we are taking him as a project OG at 6’4” 270 I’m ok with that. OL out west blows and we struck out with the best out-of-state ones, so if we are getting him and Prentice and calling it good that isn’t horrible.

    If we are taking him over Schuster in June that seems nuts.

    This is the only reasonable logic to take this kid in June. If we're recruiting this kid as a TE or DL then that means we're throwing in the towel on our bigger targets.

    The kid has a damn good tape. I can see him @ SAM, OG, TE. Maybe I'm becoming a Doog but add another explosive athlete to the commit list. JV and shit league players, but still.

    Sounds like they think he'll be up near 300 by the time he's at UW. Could very easily be moved to O line

    Roof says Malloe, PK, and Huff were all involved in his recruitment. Also plays TE for his team.

    Not sure where he saw this but Dawg101 on BDTW posted that sonics says Lake offered this kid out of frustration/panic because Schuster got cold feed about committing today. If this is true it's a HUGE red flag about Lake. The lack of discipline and desperation of this move does not bode well to how he'll perform as an in game coach.

    Nevermind that. How about manager of the fucking program?
    More recruiting classes like this one it won't matter how he is as a in game coach.

    Supposedly we are getting another commit today and the only comment I've seen from someone who claims to know who it is is "Dont know how excited everyone else will be but I'm excited"

    Doesn't sound too encouraging. Probably one of the 3* DBs.

    It's threads like this that make me wish this whole board were Members Only. The frustration and confusion stemming from this commitment are understandable, so analysis and venting are appropriate, but sure would be shitty to be this kid checking in on his commit thread.

    Mostly, though, I just want to be able to leave my jacket in Jimmy Lakes office in order to gain super insider access.

    Kid is probably as surprised as we are he got an offer.

    Per Eklund the kid is not committing today because his commitment video isnt done yet.

    Hope he doesnt wait too long though. There's a fullback/long snapper from Forks High School that the coaches have been looking at and an offer could come at any time

    He must have been caught off guard by the offer not to have the video ready. Sounds like Jimmy went and got himself another top shelf guy.

    Keep the no offer thread commits coming Jimmy!!! The JL reign has the makings of a short (bus) ride.

    Fingered crossed this ends of being the worst aging post of all times.

    This is Fetters comment on the situation:
    "But the player Scott is talking about is apparently milking his 15 minutes (and why not?!), so not expecting anything from him today."


    Weird

    So a player that no one knows who it is, and that no one is talking about, is silently milking his 15 min (12 hours) of fame. That makes no fucking sense.

    If this turns out to be a low tier 3 star recruit with aspirations of being a late career role player, I'm going to be giddy.
