Haven't followed this thread closely, so sorry if it has been announced. UM got a commitment from the nations #1 punter. I didn't even know we had offered a punter? Brad Robbins.
He's actually the 7th best punter.

Not sure if it's been pointed out yet, but it is awfully odd that once the NCAA started paying close attention to them, Ole Miss suddenly forgot how to pull in 5* kids. In fact, their current highest rated recruit is #131 overall, and their next highest is #262. Hmm... :scratch:


I made comment about it earlier but funny nonetheless. Back to realty for ole miss when aren't bringing trucks of cash on recruiting visits

11 different Bama commits are rated a 5* by at least 1 of the major sites.

LOL what the fuck is going on with that kid?

Shit. I don't think he even knows.


Really I think he just wanted to be closer to home where mom could come see him play.

Honestly, Wazzou isn't much closer to LA than Nebraska. It's a flight either way. What an odd kid.

Thoughts on Jamire Calvin @Brasky? :noidea:

I could run down the typical list of reasons why he didn't come, but it ultimately comes down to one thing:

We want guys who WANT to be here.

Brandon Reilly, a graduating senior DM'd him after he committed to Oregon State and asked him what that was about since he had told him and everyone else that he was committing to Nebraska. He point blank told Reilly he wanted to see if the fans on twitter really wanted him. He went on and on about his twitter followers.

That is not the attitude you like.

He's a shade under 150 lbs and is not the 5'9" he claims according to players on campus.

We had a WR already enrolled (Jaevon McQuitty) jump him in the rankings if that means anything to you.

He wouldn't have seen the field this year. Definitely wouldn't have started at slot over Tyjon.

That prob would have led to him leaving. I'm super happy with this class.
