Does that tutor at ND still trade doing homework for sex? Because if she is around you gotta commit to ND on the spot.

His twitter follows are heavily ND. Lots of commits.

I know he had a great time & became friends with a lot of the commits at the Echoes Banquet.
They strategically put all the commits with the other recruits in a room together during the banquet.
Like i said, this morning I thought he was ND. Then Kyler informed the insiders that ND was sending Todd Lyght out to see him Thursday night after a conversation. So that makes me believe something happened. Then the insider intereviewed Kyler & says that even Kyler hasn’t decided yet, which is a big change from Sunday.

I read his twitter as mostly positive for UW. Sure, he followed kids he was on a visit with - that's pretty normal. However, he followed Taimani too. He wasn't on a visit with him.

I think it's a case where Kyler clearly loves the idea of going to Notre Dame, but in the end will that idea be enough? If he loved the IDEA of Notre Dame and hated the IDEA of UW, I think he would already be committed to ND. I think Lyght will try to persuade him to do just that on Thursday night. If he's successful, Kyler won't take the UW visit. If he isn't, Kyler will and I think ND will be almost out of it.

The key here is that his parents will go with him to UW. That will be hard to overcome.

ND knows this and that's why they are trying to get him in front of Lyght and to not take that visit.

You moving the percentage we get him up from 20 to the 50 range given this?

Not until he visits. I honestly think they might be able to stop him from visiting. I think if he visits, we are 50/50. I think it's 50/50 whether he visits (after the talk with Lyght, not right now), so that's about 25%.

I think it's more like a 25% chance they keep him from visiting and a 75% chance he's ours if he does visit. So 50%.

But I like our visitors 51%.

So the Kyler situation is getting a little crazy.
In summary, things went all over the place this week already.

He was all but committed to ND following his 3 day weekend there, but when he got home he started hearing outside voices trying to convince him to stay home. He changed his mind so much so ND is sending out their DB coach to meet with him Thursday. Obviously they JUST spent three days together, so flying all the way out for one evening is a sign ND feels they may have lost him this week.

The insider who interviewed him straight up said Kyler doesn’t even know what he is going to do at this point.
Kyler said he wants to wrap all this up very soon, which is strange since he still hasn’t decided.

I would have guessed ND this morning, but with the fact ND is flying out again to see him unscheduled & the fact Kyler wants to just end it makes me now lean towards UW.

I think this is one of those cases where a kid is having trouble leaving home & is getting told he needs to stay home & ND is flying out to try to convince him otherwise.

This has been bizzare.
