ellitor 33,062 Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I searched his name before creating, of course. Thanks for fleshing out the title. Nice to have him and that stud LB on campus together. No kidding. Aside from visiting, do we know of any interest from Gary? Which is how I will refer to him from now on. He is visiting otherwise he would not be interested. I realize that E, which is why I said aside from visiting. We all know alot of these kids are enjoying the process, visiting different programs across the country who offer them, many of which they have no interest in attending. My question is to what extent is he interested? I disagree on the no interest part. Mom would not be spending all her hard earned money take her son to what is planned to be 15-20 schools if she were not serious on finding the school that fits her son best. They are in the exploration stage right now. The interest level for most of the schools is not truly known yet. Fair point. If it's coming out of their pocket, then that's something to consider. I think my thought came from instances that I've seen almost every year with an AU commit, who has already committed, who is 100% all Auburn, and who is going to take the rest of his officials because "he's a kid, and this is a once and a lifetime experience, and there's no need to worry, let him take his visits because he is only interested in Auburn. Do we look at that scenario differently because officials are paid for by the school? Because it does seem to me that there are instances in which kids go to visit schools that the are not, or are not still interested in. I'm just trying to wrap my head around how the process works. Either way, you answered my original question, thanks. Some situations are different. If mom and or dad is paying to visit then there is at least interest in finding an interest level. As for officials it just depends on the individual recruit. Some are just enjoying the rise. Others are still trying to find their best fit still even though they are committed. There is no one blanket statement to apply to most or all kids. For the most part though this staff has done a good job of convincing commits they really want to not OV other schools.

AUbritt 611 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Really glad to hear he enjoyed the visit! Hope he got a good chance to spend some time with current players, as well as coaches.

Any idea whi these players are and our interest? This I don't like. There was a guy last year or year before that tried to get his friend(s) signed along with him as part of a package deal. IIRC UGA got stuck with the friend and missed on the Big One. I'm glad he's coming back but the "bringing friends" thing leaves me cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
