2021 ludicruous recruting thread

[FearlessF]

I would think, even back in the 70s with unlimited ships, there were more "offers" than ships given

[bayareabadger]

How are those offers worded?  I imagine they have some kind of contingency language, no?

Would be neat to see a typical offer letter.

Ain't no letters and wording. 

It's all illusory. And sometimes a kid is "offered" but they won't take a commit just yet.

Shortly after his decomit another recruit jumped on board, and the 4 star lost his spot.  The 4 star ended up really regretting his decision and waited until the bitter end for a scholarship to open up.  It never did.

He must have been a marginal 4* then,perhaps with inuries

I smell desperation in the top 12

Coming perhaps from the virus not the Bugeaters

 Recruiting is like dating - you can be good at it or bad at it, but there isn't one magical strategy.

Damn you're a romantic - I'll give you that.I'm sure the wife would like to share your sweet nothings.Or is this what is said in the forum stays in the forum?

She doesn't need to know how many offers I sent out

If it's not in writing, it's nothing, not an offer of anything.  A verbal for a verbal?

[847badgerfan]

They cannot be in writing until official letter are allowed to go out. So, for 2021 offers, the letters will go out on August 1, 2020. Here is what one might look like:

No injuries.

I don't recall what his ranking was, tbh.  I can't even 100% remember which decommit it was, but I think it was Aaryn Parks. 

I do remember that stargazers were in a panic because Penn State filled the slot with a *gasp* 3 star kid.

3* DE Tyson Watson from Warren, MI chooses MSU over Tennessee, Iowa State and Indiana

[Big Beef Tacosupreme]

Three star DB Jeffrey Davis Jr. chooses Penn State over Michigan.

[RestingB!tchFace]

Pulled in a solid pair of players yesterday.  One VERY impressive.

Devon Williams is a Three Star Outside Linebacker out of Dublin, Ohio.  Originally committed to Kentucky.  Held offers from Kentucky, Indiana, Michigan, MSU, Nebraska, WVU, and others.

The major coup however....is Avante Dickerson. A Four Star Cornerback (rated 56 overall and 6th CB on 247) from Omaha, Nebraska.  Held offers from Georgia, Iowa, LSU, Michigan, Nebraska, Ohio State, Oregon, PSU, Texas, USC, among plenty more.


This....after grabbing Three Star WR, Lemeke Brockington out of Georgia earlier in the week and another Four Star CB (ranked 18th CB according to 247), Steven Ortiz Jr. out of Arizona about a week and a half ago.

Frost let the Gophers snag the top recruit in their state?
