That young man will never want for fresh corn for the rest of his life.

Hi, I'm Dylan Raiola. Eat Nebraska corn. It's good.

  • Finally can tell my aggy story.    Have a good insight into this kids recruitment and I’m still laughing about his visit to aggy. Dude gets his player host (I’ll let y’all find who that is) and

    How do you think this is helpful? Not being a jerk, just asking y'all to keep your shit together and use common sense. In any event, I know for a fact that nothing ever happens with Texas until a

    He could have if he isn't. Play devil's advocate and tell us why you feel about this guy's overall approach to his recruitment and how that either translates to the next level or doesn't matter.

Yep, and his uncle Donovan (Dominic’s brother) is the Nebraska OL coach

And his uncle just got a 50% raise and an additional year on his contract. 
 

that’s one way to get around schools not being able to pay NIL. 

One of the comments on X-twitter nailed it: 4 high schools and 3 decommits, this kid is gonna portal at least twice.

Jason Howell is saying McKinley likely isn't signing NSD1. Oh boy, buckle up. 

 

 

If you read the story about how papa Raiola tried to deliver his son to Frost, then you will know why this is not a surprising turn of events.  Frost is a FUCKING DUMBASS.  He fucked that recruitment worse than Tom did with Ewers.

It would be great if losing Raiola also meant another 5-star would look closer to home.

I wonder why Texas is having difficulty getting another top DL into the class. They have Davis, an Outland Trophy Winner, and clear development in Sweat and Murphy. 

Eh, our DL haul is vastly underrated IMO.  January is a monster on the field in games.  Maybe he doesn't do camps, but go back and watch the state game against North Shore last year, he was blowing up double teams and all in the backfield.  Hills and Robinson had big Sr seasons on the field.  Same with Hibbler if we can flip him.

In the 25' class we are looking pretty good for 4* DT from Lufkin, Zion Williams.

Heard he is good at basketball but needs to lose weight.

not really recruiting related per se, but i could not help but laugh at this comment on the tweet announcing IT's new YouTube channel.  my man is 0-3 and proud of it.

 

Huh, that got shut down pretty hard last week. Wonder if he finally saw the light in regards to the shitshow in college station.

That would be some serious german U boat level shit. It sounds like aggy is completely unraveling.

Strange to me that nobody on the Texas side has said anything about smith- that I’ve seen on this thread.  I’m always wondering who is scheduling visits to Texas to siphon some more money from them.

The less our current group of 9.95ers knows the better. They tend to run with things before they should be. Of course this is an aggy attempt to get the checkbooks out and then they have a win over Texas for Elko? Is that how this works?

I know. That’s why I tend to assume that if something isn’t said, it’s not because the group is collectively holding their tongues.  They don’t know or it isn’t true.

Nahlin (IT) just put out a post - admitted that they thought this was all but over and that Smith was firm in his commitment to aggy. They’re working to confirm the visit but sees no reason to doubt TexAgs report.  Texas coaches were incredibly quiet about any communication with Smith.

Was he in Hawaii as well?

Just go with the opposite of what $9.95s say and you will be on the right track.

Jimbo was a disaster but the man can recruit. I think aggys are finding that out now. 

Jimbo only got blown off the field 3 times and only to the best teams on the road: @#1 Bama 45-23 2018, @#2 LSU 50-7 2019, @#2 Bama 52-24 2020.

aggy can and will do a lot worse than Jimbo.

Are the numbers going to work if we get Filsame, Smith, McKinley, and Solomon Williams?

This could easily be the oldest trick in the Texags mod book: tell the sheep that “Texas is pushing really hard”, and then sell it as a big win when the recruit stays put.

That definitely seemed the case with Ivy. They were using very vague language. 

Don't think so here. They're pretty much admitting that Smith has already flipped. Maybe it's just complete bullshit but sure doesn't seem like it.

Yep. First juicy scoop post Gerry, and he writes the most unintentional 9.95 update I’ve seen quite some time. 
 

His thesis: If Smith visits he’ll flip.

Well no shit. How do I turn off my IT sub on Apple Pay?
