Albany DE Jared Verse (transfer - FSU commit)

This is why we put undue pressure on players like Tyre West. Perhaps if we’d sign players like Verse we wouldn’t need or expect to develop High School prospects to an SEC caliber level in year one. We’re working with skin and bones on the DL. We need instant impact guys. Not stretches that “could” be ready to go in 2023.
 
Disappointed yes but he played against terrible competition. He could be great or be Jonathan Kongbo who was supposed to be the next Leonard Little. Had he put up the stats against Power 5 opponents then I would be really upset.
Yeah, I don't get it, people acting like we lost out on Jadeveon Clowney or something.

My point exactly. That isn’t higher than JC in many cases. Kongbo wasn’t able to play here until his last yr & he got hurt.

We can agree to disagree, but what would possibly lead you to believe that UT doesn't want to play the NIL game but somehow FSU does? And what evidence is there that they have boosters with money? They have one of the lowest donation rates per enrollment of all public universities. If they have money boosters, why has it been so hard to raise money for stadium renos and facility upgrades? They are a decade behind us in infrastructure.
Yeah, I think we just need to agree to disagree. All I can tell you is to check out Spyre. The other schools are playing on a different level.
 
Just think the kid liked Florida period. Don’t get me wrong I think UT impressed him but he visited on a cold Dec weekend. If you grow up in a small Pa town and went to college at Albany freezing your ass off every winter Florida is hard to beat.

Pretty much. Honesty think it comes down to nothing else.

it was always FSU.
 
This is the first recruiting loss that’s really disappointed me in the Heupel era.

Oh well, I guess. Got to find defensive help.
What ya going to do? If he chooses FSU we just find another who is just as good as Verse. He chooses a school that has been sucking for about as many years as us and doesn't show any signs of improvement. It will be a disappointment if he chooses FSU but you move on. Hopefully AP will be wrong once again.

He chose FSU.
