This is the problem with only reading headlines and reddit. Go read the press release that Ole Miss' twitter linked. Their headline was click-bait, they still have sanctions. 1 Quote Link to comment

I'd wager a guess he's the skinny kid in the picture standing next to Wandale with beads in his hair. Can't say I could take a threat such as his serious when he resembles a lampshade with arms. 1 Quote Link to comment
FrantzHardySwag Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Not hugely disappointed we didn't get the kid - just frustrating how it unfolded. Having Johnson, Jones, Washington for the next 3-4 years - Wandale would have just been the rich getting richer. If this class turns out how I think it will then the Wandale saga won't even be a footnote. Quote Link to comment

Some quotes stood out Quote "It was tonight," Robinson said late Wednesday night. "Me and those close to me got together and the more I thought about it some things weren't certain and I had to go with who I trusted the most and that was the coaches at Kentucky." Quote "The program is trending up and it’s exciting to be from the state and know I have a chance to play for them and potentially play in the SEC Championship Game," Robinson said. "I didn’t expect them to be at the point they are now, being ranked No. 9 in the country. I expected them to be better but they have exceeded my expectations." Not knowing Frost as long and being unfamiliar with Nebraska I can imagine that Kentucky coaches planted the seed that Frost being able to turn our program around was uncertain. We have shown very little on the field to eliminate that doubt. Meanwhile Kentucky is where they are although possibly temporary. 1 Quote Link to comment

For sure. I recall Tevin Mitchell (CB from Texas) flipped to Arkansas because his mom suddenly got a job there. 2 Quote Link to comment

Some quotes stood out Assuming no shenanigans, its a pretty logical choice for him. The way he talks about himself - he doesn't seem like a guy that would handle the bench too well. Snell potentially to the NFL next year - Kentucky RB position could be gift wrapped for Wandale. If I was a RB recruit watching Mo right now, I would have to assume I wouldn't be option A at RB for a couple of years. Quote Link to comment

I’d imagine 2 of MW, Jones, Robinson would’ve been on the field at all times with Mills taking reps exclusively at RB for certain drives. 1 Quote Link to comment

Very true - still a lot of dogs in that room with or without Robinson. Quote Link to comment
Pedro G Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 It just goes to show you, that recruiting experts don’t really know until the very end, especially with Out-of-State highly sought-after players. Even if he committed to Nebraska, it is very possible he would’ve flipped to Kentucky anyways. It’s a great loss but it’s not going to break us by any means. Quote Link to comment
Decoy73 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 We don't need another Prima Dona. Not saying he is, but if the alleged shenanigans about Frost getting a call last night are true.....forget this kid. There will be others without the baggage. Don't need that. Disclaimer: The aforementioned shenanigans could be made up and Wandale may be a great kid who just wants to stay closer to home. If so, more power to him and I hope he does well. We'll be fine either way. 1 Quote Link to comment
Snowbird Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I’m telling everyone. Money to high recruits happens. All of them? Of course not? Ones who ask the right programs and have the right people talking For them, they get paid. Quote Link to comment

Or does paying players only apply when we miss on one? 3 Quote Link to comment
