‘23 FL OT Francis Mauigoa (Miami commit)

[TheMookieMonster]

My one concern for Miami isn’t anything other than their shady NIL and clown booster John Ruiz. If they are coming in at the 11th hour, it’s not a good thing. Hopefully this time it’s just too late.

 

[CeJayVols]

One of my concerns for Miami would be the climate there being more like American Samoa.

However it's far more populated and we got rivers!

My concern is more Mario can recruit with the best of them plus the U has a billionaire donor throwing money around with the NIL game like there is no tomorrow and I mean big money. One of the reasons the NCAA was looking into this

 

[Volzfan38024]

Like I said before Miami scares me more here than anyone.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Holy Smokes there is a lot of unnecessary hand wringing in this thread. Dude is a Vol.

 

[Chasvol]

Nicos family is moving to Nashville I believe. Unfortunately I think that has something to do with his moms cancer treatment but I could be wrong in that.

 

[Chasvol]

I believe… I think… I could be wrong…

If relationships and family are the deciding factor, then U swooping in with a bug NIL deal won't be what sways him away from UT.

I think we land him but Miami ain’t messing around at the moment. So we will see

Hopefully…. Miami isn’t getting ready to go on a big spending spree but their class only has the qb and one othe 4*

 

[Jackcrevol]

But what do Francis and his family think is important?

Well, I can see where y'all think Miami is a bigger player. Interesting.

Well, hope we land him.

I think Mauigoa is coming here, you guys just have major BVS.

They do tend to freak out over the smallest amount of info.

Seems to me like Miami would be the furthest away from his roots in terms of distance and culture. They would really have to pony up to pull him, like double what we are. I don't see it.

Miami may be making a late push but one would think his relationship with the Iamaleava's would work in our favor in the end.

 

[VolByLaw]

spoke to Francis today…family is together in Hawaii and will start weighing everything tomorrow. Still feel good about TN chances imo.

I can’t wait to bathe in Gator tears when this guy commits to us.

that's what ap leaned towards in the pod this morning. said Miami is now maybe the biggest competition, but that nico's and franci's families really jived well, better than expected from what i understood, and that likely may be the cherry on top for us.

 

[Blake25p]

Nothing we already don’t know but AP on the pod said Miami is probably our biggest competition and that Nico and his family will play a big role here.

Can’t wait to listen to the pod later today

[allvolrecruiting]

They’ve said USC forever and now say Miami…that’s usually good for us FYI.
