I believe in Jimmy. He pulled it out for Asa, Julius, Kyler, etc all at the 11th hour.
That said.... I’ll be in the bathtub....

Jimmy Lake needs to pull out his "time to man up" talk he gave Asa.

One could make a case for this being a factual statement for THIS YEAR only and not sarcasm.PostGameOrangeSlices said:Can Jimmy Lake not recruit? How bout Harris?

Poont of clarification:bananasnblondes said:Acropolis Jr (who previously labeled him a silent commit) now says He Gone.
I read his poast to see what this is about. He didn’t say he gone. Many poasters were commenting about how his “change of plans” tweet was likely a sooner commitment than the previously planned Oct 1st.
Acrop merely said “He’s not committing. His recruitment is open”.
So he was just telling people that it’s still a battle and a commitment isn’t incoming. Not that he has removed UW.
Edit:
And Acrop just dropped a new poast that it’s not over and UW is still doing very well with him.
For fucks sake Bananas, get your shit together and read clearly. You about started a nuclear meltdown. -

In all serious though, the kid was all but officially committed -Just wanted to give Oklahoma a charity visit. Now he wants to see other schools. He's either second guessing himself on UW or has people telling him to look around. -

Oklahoma insider yesterday said Jacobe is still in contact with coaches, but he’s not sure how much.
A&M insider said he is being viewed as a backup plan for Eaton and then said this yesterday:
He will be visiting on September 21st. Covington is considered a Washington lean as of today. He has eight Crystal Ball predictions, and all eight favor the Huskies.
So he’s doing his due diligence as of now but it’s not much different than his previous October 1st timeline or his previous statements that he wanted to take more visits. -

This. He just wants to take more free trips get the photos post that shit like millennials do for the clout and impress the hot girl at school before he starts his senior year. He still ends up a dawgdhdawg said:

I’m usually the player/recruit apologist guy, but man is this kid thinkin he’s big time just cuz he plays wit Kelee. The coaches are fucking pissed about this. I really don’t get this.

I worry about the following scenario (which I think you're referring to):LaMichael_Corleone said:I’m usually the player/recruit apologist guy, but man is this kid thinkin he’s big time just cuz he plays wit Kelee. The coaches are fucking pissed about this. I really don’t get this.
-Covington visits UW, commits to coaches privately but wants to take a visit, sets a public commit date
- Coaches check in with kid after his visit and he says he wants to take more visits
- -Coaches get pissed because kid isnt sticking by his original plan. Tell him to take visits but they wont save a spot for him
- coaches tell the next guy up he can commit (in this case, probably Jackson) -

I think he’s going to focus on the season, enjoy a couple games and either realize out of all of his schools his UNQUESTIONED best chance to be developed to his ceiling is at UDUB and the UNQUESTIONED most prestigious degree that sets you up for job opportunities in a REAL BIG MARKET CITY is at UDUB and he comes here or makes risks losing out in millions of dollars on or off the field.
IMO I think it’s every kid’s dream to get recruited. You work so much harder than people realize and your parents sacrifice to get you to camps and stress all day about what’s next. I’d rather have him getting cold feet now then say when Asa got his.
OU hasn’t had a DB drafted in the 1st or 2nd round since 2002. I’m pretty sure that’s the same year Jacobe was born. He’s liked tweets about how 4/5 star defenders go there all the time and go nowhere. If you don’t develop or get hurt in Norman what does that degree do for you and what lucrative job offerings are there in OKLA-FUCKING-HOMA. What job offers are there in College Station with a Texas A&M degree?
USC went 5-7 with recruiting classes ranked 10th, 8th, 4th, 4th, 2nd. If they did that poorly with that how are they going to do with classes ranked 16th and lower this year? Iman Marshall and Marvell Tell were rated way higher than Jacobe. Both 5th rounders. Jordan Miller didn’t redshirt as a 160pound freshman had an INT the next year in the apple cup, snapped his leg in half as a JR, never redshirted, split time with Keith still nursing was too nervous for the combine and did poorly AND HE WAS STILL A 5TH ROUNDER.
Oregon will promise Jacobe early playing time just like all the guys, lie to him and focus on his short team stuff to get him on field rather than focusing on long term earning potential and then we’re right back to does their degree in a small shitty town set Jacobe up financially like a degree from UDUB would in a big city like Seattle? No way in hell.
I don’t get his concern with playing time because we were loaded last year and still every FROSH got to play 4 games. AND with us playing Dime-Super Dime-Nickel more than any team in the country AND having players leave early for the draft, playing time is going to be there. It’s about earning that and competing with the best to either get that spot or make the other person better until it’s your turn to show off what you learned when those guys pushed you or you were chasing after them.
It’s just too much of a perfect fit and we need to big him up as being the perfect fit rather than saying this is such a good fit that if you don’t see it you’re not cool. That’s all on me and I feel awful for being lazy about how I worded thing. I’m sorry I had a bad post and I’m sorry this is long but I truly in my heart of hearts want to do anything for kids to see how complete of a money package UDUB is right now and how they can change their lives WITHOUT football at UDUB let alone with it. WHAT FANBASE HAS JACOBE TO UDUB TWITTER ACCOUNTS AND HAS PEOPLE SITTING UP AT 11:30 WORRYING ABOUT JACOBE COVINGTON?! THATS HOW MUCH WE WANT HIM!!

Replacing Jimmy with Gearld Alexander needs to start being seen as a positive. GA is the missing link to translating to fast strategy kids. He is the model of LA black fast strategy guys using the slow strategy and structure of Pete’s program to start a family and make six figures doing what he loves all because he used football as an avenue to get out. He will relate to a lot more people who we haven’t had much of a shot at.KevininTacoma said:The only scenario I’m concerned about is Lake taking off in January

This. On a related note, if when they build Pete a statue and it isn't actually a statue of Pete and Kawasaki throwing up the dubs together or fly fishing together or whatever the fuck together, K will have been sold short.LaMichael_Corleone said:

Assuming K has no head coach aspirations and will ride with Pete until the end, while simultaneously being clearly the best coordinator in the nation, and on top of all that taking a fucking demotion to keep Spokane Jimmy around for another couple years... He deserves to be on the Huskie football Mt Rushmore. -

Again with this. GAs recruiting performance at Cal the last 3 years runs in deep contrast to the narrative that this message bored has created for him.LaMichael_Corleone said:

Maybe he'd blow up if he came here but it's funny how the people who scream the loudest about recruiting results are enamored by this guy who has not signed a single blue chip recruit in 3 years. -
