Good imo as for which one may depend on who's willing to commit first. JMO as of today at 2:15pm things can change as you know. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAG 34,030 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Honestly , it would probably would not benefit us for someone as good as that five star QB to commit to us right now or even soon (unless He is going to pull a Walker White and closes his recruitment). All that is going to do is expose our hand and get us in a bidding war very early. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gman87 398 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Imo any recruit that is a 5 star will be a bidding war so why not take a commitment? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuscAUse! 1,465 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 You both have great points Which means we have no idea which one of you are right. And I doubt the coaches do either, at this point, at any school. Coaches were definitely overpaid on the past. I'm not sure now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a sneaky feeling we would not have a backup plan if we took his commitment and lost him in the eleventh hour because we are not "willing to overspend," and all the other QBs already have a solidified relationship. Again, this is only solely speaking for those players who are top tiers of the top tier players & still taking visits. I would rather have him commit somewhere else early, see what the floor is for his commitment price, and if it is even worth it for our money guys, but that is just my opinion.

All that will eventually normalize. I believe coaches salaries will drop back along with players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a tough call for a coaching staff. Typically, QBs have committed early and stayed firm. But that's changing now. Longstreet is committing soon and loved his recent visit. Lewis seems worth waiting for. What do you do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he commits you have to be sure to understand it’s like a blank check. This is the face of your team. You can’t get a commit like this then later on hear “well we weren’t going to over spend.” There are only maybe a handful of guys who are program changers. I believe we got ourselves one in Cam Coleman. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe we got ourselves one in Cam Coleman. Completely agree on Coleman. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say he could be the best AU WR of all time. But I wish he was at a position that can impact the game without help from another position. No one has ever said, "games are won at wide receiver." If Lewis wants to come, I agree it's a blank check. Give him what it takes. We need a top notch QB so badly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, lately on both college and pro teams games are won and lost at WR. It's becoming at least the second most important position on a team, if not the most important. The times they are a' changin'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
