I guess we weren't able to beat Fran on this one. Lol

Incredible offer list. I have to say I feel much better about keeping FL kids who commit after the success last year - both on the field and with getting FL kids to sign.

I wonder, do offer lists mean the same thing as they used to? Now it’s about how much money you’re putting on the table. Maybe it’s easy to offer a kid with not a lot of money and it doesn’t really mean anything.

Verbals mean even less now than they used to before NIL - and they didn't mean all that much then. So, while I'm happy to see the verbal, I'll wait to see who signs before getting too excited.

the vast majority of our verbals have enrolled. maybe that will change, but the track record is good.
Agreed. We lost what? 1 verbal last year? And people figured Duff and I think White(?) were definitely going to flip but never did.
Times have changed. We have some success to point to now. It's much harder to steal from us.

Agreed. Anticipate increased buying/flipping of recruits with NIL offers up through the LOI signing date. It's out of control and basically unregulated.

I wonder if he dissed USC because they gave him a soft offer while RU gave him a committable offer.

My understanding is that Schiano tells guys not to verbal if they just want to use us as a placeholder. They better be pretty sure. Now that's not to say someone doesn't come along with a bag. But for now, I'll take the verbal.
