I will say the same thing that has been said 10,000 times before. The whole "silent commitment" rumor just doesn't make sense. We were waiting for Scroggins' commitment so that hopefully more recruits would jump on board. Why then would this coaching staff tell a top flight QB to reamin silent? It just seems to counter-intuitive.

It's not the coaching staffs choice to remain silent, it is the kids.

Maybe the kid is committed elsewhere and wants to keep it a secret

Supposedly this "silent QB" is committed to another school, so he's keeping it silent not the staff.

Not sure if I buy all that...

I agree. If we have a silent qb commit they better announce and announce it loudly where other big name offensive studs can see so we can real them in. I can see however, that he may be close to commiting but if he was truly ready to commit I can't see anyone on our staff trying to keep it quiet. However I am leaving tommorrow to go to a soccer camp for the weekend and I wont be able to get on. Haha. Hopefully this "silent" commit makes it official so when I get back I have some awesome news.

A lot of times kids will wait so that they don't catch all kinds of hell from the local crowd. That way, they can actually enjoy their senior year.

This all seems a little to "wishy washy".

Because my idea of a big fish and someone else's idea could be different.

How do you know who it isn't. All your post says is that kiff told him that there is a big fish on the reel.

Guess I've always assumed that a silent commitment had strong influence from the coaching staff. Two recent examples would be Lamaison and Nuke. Lamaison remained silent so as to not scare off potential QB recruits. Nuke remained silent (possibly) to not deal with all of the BS of being from Pahokee and going to TN. Do you not think Lane and Co. had a say in these?

Well rettig is a stretch but right now he's got a real solid commit as does sims. I don't consider either elite but to sway any of those guys would be an elite pull.

Idt Rettig is that good nor do i think the coaches are going after him hard.

If not Heaps then I would hope it is Newton. Newton is the only uncommitted guy who I think can compete in 2010. Of the committed there is Heaps and Sims.
