RU offers PSU commit Michael Dwumfour from DePaul Catholic

Commitment Status:Solid Verbal

:boxing: Let's kick their Ash!
 
It's amazing that Ash would offer Dwumfour only after a few days on the job. Meanwhile, Flood danced around Dwumfour about offering him a scholarship... so what changed?

Don't get why going after the defensive players from PSU, their D coordinator is probably a more well known coordinator and until he leaves PSU (soon I'm sure) his defenses will be top 3 in the big ten like this year and last. Go for offensive players from PSU, they don't even have an O coordinator
 
This is EJ... Hey Coach, there's a pretty good kid from near here we didn't offer because he didn't come in to meet Flood...Ash..let me see his tape...ok ..get err done

We have a long way to go before we get a flip. But, like the longest journey starts with a single step, a flip starts with a single offer.

And so he should!

Don't disagree. If he takes the Urban approach he will try to set up a wall around Ohio taking the majority of in state guys ( to be fair that was already in place when Urban got here) that he thinks best fits his system, then he will open pipelines into other states hitting certain schools over and over.
 
It seems strange this would come out of the blue even considering the NJ thing.

Not saying at all the kid is considering anything. Maybe he just let it be know he'd be interested in at least hearing what Ash has to say before he signs his LOI?

Could be nothing. Could be something.

my understanding is that this would be a very tough flip, he has been all PSU for a long time.....if ASH pulls this off, it would be a real feat.....

I do think it is a good idea to try this with any and all NJ players of merit.

I can certainly see trying to flip a guy based on tape he'd seen WHILE AT OSU. I'm sure he's not starting from scratch in evaluating these players. While I would not be overly excited about it, the odds are not high, I'd also not be hugely disappointed if and when they stay.
 
I love the b@lls of this move..

It's a public shot across the bow to Franklin- if he gets the flip, it will send a strong message

Compare this to Flood, who did everything short of serving as Franklin's tour guide to the state

I don't get why you guys act so "minor league" about this stuff. How is it a public shot to Franklin? Are you not supposed to offer verbally committed players?
I mean I understand your excitement over Ash but he's not doing anything 99% of coaches around the country aren't doing. Even Flood offered committed guys and yes, even committed PSU guys. Being excited for your new coach doesn't mean your former coach sat on his hands all day--he wasn't very effective, but I do believe he tried.

I should add that it is nice to see you guys excited for your program again though!!

With your response, "you guys" is it safe to assume your a psu fan?
