2022 Recruiting

Diamond in the rough?

Low 3 star on rivals, 247 hasn't gotten around to rating him. He's got a couple of good offers in there and is the son of a Tech great (Gary Lee). So, he doesn't really qualify as a diamond in the rough because he wasn't hard to find, as a local and a legacy. I'm sure we've had an eye on him and decided he was worth an offer and we've got room.

in this case i don't worry about the rating.
I wouldn't want to see him go anywhere else.

We got Carter per his tweet. But now it isn't available. Maybe he decided to pull it for now?

I don't think it's meant to be a commitment tweet, but is certainly a good indicator of his intentions.

The ESPN caption states otherwise unless it doesn't pertain to him?

I assume those are fictionalized headlines created specifically for the graphic. A quick Google search doesn't turn up anything suggesting he's committed.

It's an edit. Not real headlines. Here is another one of our recruits posting the same edit. I believe the player pictured is Tyson Meiguez.

I thought the same. Agreed. If you google just his name his link is the first.

Different uniform number though

Yep, the high school numbers for Carter and Durojaiye. Our graphics guys get all the details. (Though there is a little typo in the graphic. )

Legacies are scary good…in a non-Animal House way.

Someone make a thread already

If the original bee was for a commit that wanted to make a video and announce with his family, then this wasn’t it, right? We should still have one more coming.

It sounds like the holdup with Lee wasn't that he wanted to make a video but that his mom wanted more information and to talk with the staff before she gave her blessing.

That makes sense. I was being hopeful. Still thrilled with this commitment.
