DE Xavier Kelly [Clemson - Signed LOI]

I'm gonna be completely honest here. Did you guys actually think we had a chance of getting him?

At least a better chance than K-State. No offense to them.

I say complete offense to them. It's KSUcks for crying out loud.

Thinking dad had a hand in the list. This too shall pass.

 

[Mavric]

Unfortunately this really isn't that surprising. I don't think we've been in it for awhile.

As the tea leaves fall, this was the case.
Feels the most comfortable with FSU, Alabama and UGA.

 

[ScottyIce]

WOW. I thought we'd at least make a top 8... What's next? Farniok doesn't have us in his top 15?

 

[Savage Husker]

Mama needs to get in his ear.

Said he and his dad sat down last night and did some research on schools and came up with a top 8. Didn't sound like mom was even part of it.

He's just now doing his research? Didn't do any while he was visiting 20 schools the past two months? Maybe he has a dad like in Friday Night Lights...

Momma like Riley, but she wasn't part of the decision process. Any chance we get back into it after momma gets a say? I mean, doesn't recruiting come down to pleasing momma 90% of the time?

 

[Mavric]

I would guess keeping KState in the running is to keep momma happy.

It's frustrating that when we finally have momma on our side.....she obviously doesn't matter.

 

[Treand3]

Didn't think dad would have that much pull, but he's clearly driving the bus. Not much the staff could do here.

 

[Mavric]

Visiting Georgia this weekend (second time this summer) and will OV there this fall.

Apparently he played his freshman year of HS in Georgia as well.

That actually makes sense in his interest, and dad's, in playing in the southeast. Though I think that isn't all but its understandable. The silver lining is that he's the exception and not the norm for heartland kids.

 

[Scratchtown]

I couldn't see him at Nebraska. NU typically doesn't get these freakish athletes on the regular.

NEXT!
