kozzman555 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I always wondered when or if a player would get too cute with their commitment announcements and tell a coach that they will find out when everyone else does. Seems like it would be a jerk move to a coach trying to make sure they can manage their spots left and know what to tell other recruits (if there is room for them or not). I am not at all saying that is what happened here, I have less than zero inside knowledge, but these last minute shenanigans always make me wonder what’s up. 1 Quote Link to comment

Is there something I'm missing? They seem more happy to pull a second one like Reed from us than they are of the player himself. I guess I'll be that guy, but I never saw anything anything great about him. He just looked like he was bigger than the kids he played against. Not saying he's a bad talent, but I liked some of the other OLBs we were in on more, and if he were in Florida he would be middle of the road. Honestly, thought Aho was a better get, and if Aho has a work ethic like Ozigbo he'll be a stud. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

It must have been really bad because you don’t wanna miss a player like this and play against him for 3-4 years. That's true. But along the same lines I think what Frost is building is going to surpass Wisconsin very soon. And I know KJ is OLB, but I couldn't be more excited about our ILBs now. 2 Quote Link to comment

Hurts, but this crew is full of talent and tomorrow could be an awesome day still. This staff seems to have a knack to turn up all options. Somehow or another I’m sure his spot will get filled with another OLB. Wonder if they try and go after another LB post this signing day who hasn’t committed and end up changing Greene to OLB? Or heck maybe they just move him to OLB and fill his spot with another high quality guy in another position. 1 Quote Link to comment

If they think their coaches cooled then they are out of their minds. Still watching this thread? Lol. May very well be legitimate, but there's the same "we dropped him" and a few "he doesn't look that great anyway" comments already. Quote Link to comment

For the record I posted something similar to the later but it was more of a question about why Wiscy fans were saying he doesn't look that great anyway after the CB's came rolling in for them Quote Link to comment

Being a .93 he gotta be good. But I commented days ago when we thought we were getting Kaden that I would take Greene if had to choose. Easy decision in my mind- Greene is elite talent 1 Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Reminds me a little of Javontae Jean-Baptiste situation....I still feel that kid would have thrived here . Greene is def better than Kaden even though taking both would have been ideal 2 Quote Link to comment

It's just funny how standard the responses in these situation are - and sometimes I'm sure they are accurate. I just don't know, so it all seems like bitter rationalization to me.

WyoHusker56 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 This recruitment has been interesting all along. I still get the feeling he wanted a better option to open up and kept things open until the end. When nothing came he had to decide. 1 Quote Link to comment
Wunderkind Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I hope he still comes, looks like he has potential to be a good player. But if he doesn't there are some good players left that we can pick up. Quote Link to comment
RedRedJarvisRedwine Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Something’s off about this kids recruitment to me too. Where are all his big offers. LSU. Just in relation to his ranking, id expect a ton of big offers. What didn’t Oregon and Penn St like about him that they didn’t offer? As I believe he visited both. 1 Quote Link to comment
