Warrior10 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 So I get Miami is a legit Power. But how much cash did they pay out this past weekend to get Hightower? Also to get Pledger and Bookie somewhat interested apparently.Did you say/think the same when we landed Tyjon or Blades?No because we have hired legit recruiters... and MR has been willing to go after big fish HARD. Bo wasn't.I am sure Miami has legit recruiters and are obviously going after big fish hard. What's the difference when they land a top guy vs us? 3 Quote Link to comment

My point is that they landed a guy I didn't think was interested in them out of the blue and then they suddenly have Pledger and Bookie interested it appears in a Keyshawn Jr. Type of a way.

Miami probably has better strip clubs and beaches than Lincoln.. just a guess tho. Not that an 18 yr old kid would be interested in those things. Quote Link to comment

I don't get that sense w/Pledger and Bookie. All Pledger has tweeted about in the last day and half is NE, and Bookie is fair about spreading the love, but we get a VERY heavy dose from him.

It doesn't mean that we paid them. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Also it doesn't matter if Miami is up or down kids still want to play there. Agree....I honestly never understood how it took them so long to finally become a power in the 80s. Seriously.....what kid wouldn't take a long hard look at going to Miami to play football and go to school? Quote Link to comment
GBRFAN Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 They should take a look, however the game day atmosphere has something missing. Quote Link to comment

I don't think it was until they changed admission standards that they started getting the type of kids they won with. Quote Link to comment
PaulCrewe Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Me thinks the IMG QB Sitkowski who just committed to Miami has a little to do with this decision. Also kid moves there for school from across the country and loves the new scene. It happens 1 Quote Link to comment
