'25 NC OT David Sanders (Tennessee commit)

[Vols919]

They're definitely putting up a fight for him, he was on IG supporting the Charlotte-area DL they just picked up.

A couple 10+ win seasons under Heup and we can get back to pushing B1G schools out of Charlotte and the Carolinas again!

Kevin Simon just said we got a big commitment from a oline man from North Carolina on the radio when talking about what’s going on with all the excitement

My guess is that he was talking about Utu and miss spoke, but one can hope.

We've averaged 10 wins over the last two years, so.......

There is a new reason for a school and a player to delay public commitments.

Yes it has to do with NIL. No, it doesn’t have anything to do with a player seeking out the most in NIL.

Go on…

Go on…

I figured you would know it.

This is a hypothetical situation

Let’s say a player is down to 2 schools. Both schools have an NIL budget of 10 million a year. Player has been offered a 500k a year NIL deal at both schools. He knows he’s going to school A vs school B. School B has to hold 500k until they find out they lose out on the player. That prevents them from using that 500k to secure another player for a long time.

The players aren’t trying to ruin the other schools. That’s for coaches. You’re thinking way too much into this

I agree with that but also depending on the desire for the athlete. If you are a highly sought out guy then cool they will hold for you, but if you are not and try to toe the line then you might be disappointed in the end when both offers are no longer there.

The coaches telling them not to make it public until a specific time would do that though.

Would also require player to lie to school B for an ongoing amount of time. I just don’t believe that’s the case for 99.9% of recruits, especially in the days of the transfer portal.

This is true

So did you think a player was a liar in the past when they were silent commits? There was reasons for that too.

Usually it’s just bc they want to announce at a certain time and many want to do it at a ceremony.

Or they commit but don’t make it public bc they’re continuing to look around.

sometimes they commit and still go on free trips until their announcement date… wouldn’t that be lying to team B?

 

[Jackcrevol]

we need to close this one down. will make this class elite. (it's already a good class @drvenner) moar

How do you know they’re not giving team B an opportunity to change their minds?

There is probably a little bit of both going on…. as long as you don’t completely burn bridges then it is not an issue.

 

[vol94]

Remember when Tee flipped on July 4?

I have a clue. He's gonna be a vol

That was a kick in the gut. He definitely lived up to the hype in both college and the NFL.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Still feel good, but if this was a horse race we are in the home stretch with a slight lead and have to keep the steam on to cross the finish in first.

Not done working.

You said a few posts earlier he's a Vol. I'm confused now

first day following recruiting?

 

[volKano]

This is the type of recruitments we have lost over the past couple decades and we have to close out to get up to top 5 status

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Guys he’s a vol. relax.
