'12 TX LB Dalton Santos (Texas Commit)

[tvols75]

We've shown our hand already. All the cards are on the table. He seemed pretty convinced last time we were down there.

Yeah and if he thought we were the better fit, but we decided to just stop recruiting him then what do you think his reaction would be?

 

[Lexvol]

Why the hell would you stop recruiting a commit because he's taking a visit? The coaches can show where he is a better fit in sec, how sunseris scheme is a better fit, and weigh the pros and cons of both programs. It would be beyond dumb to waste the resources we have 10 days before because you are scared he's taking a visit.

Because we aren't going to flip his father. I think he has his mind made up.

 

[tombomcfaren]

Fingers crossed.

who is the bucball he seems in the know.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

you know his recruitment is like pagan's last year, except pagan wasn't committed to us for almost a year.

Yes, I do remember Pagan from last year..I was told that he was a lock for the Vols b/c we were gonna steal him from Bama..Well..so much for that!!:banghead2:

Exactly you think not you know.

You do realize that we are still having inhome visits with commitments that a very firm and done taking visits. That's is doing the job they are paid to do.

There is something to be said about persistence, IMO.

What else are we going to discuss with him? You think Sunseri spent all night talking about the consistency of the gravy?

I hope they are still all over Richie Brown.

Dalton has been committed almost a year?

just remind him on where we have been with him throughout the process. this is dirty talking time (no homo). this is where we say why would you let Texas tell you that you are a second choice to them, a fallback. i think sunseri knows what he is doing and will talk down about texas.

You need to get the NCAA to change the contact rules. Coaches only need one visit to sell themselves. It would save a hell of a lot of money.

We're in good shape here and it's much better that he's visiting Austin than College Station.

Depth chart? Texas vs. tn scheme? Sec offenses vs big 12 offenses? There are plenty of things to talk about.

He isn't leaving Mississippi.

 

[tombomcfaren]

lol

never.

I'll see what I can do.

I am sure they just turned up the heat on that one.

So you want us to stop recruiting a commit and instead recruit someone who has indicated he is not leaving Mississippi? Makes sense.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

his dad seems to be running the show. just like you said.

Sounds familiar, like Bryce Brown's dad running the show only his wasn't during the recruitment b/c that took place later on.

In the end, it should be left up to the child..It's not fair for the parents or one of the parents to run the child's life b/c he will never learn how to make an adult decision..JMO:ermm:

Everybody has their own personal El Quapo.

This.

No doubt. Last weeks visit had nothing to do with Tex I am sure. Going over their roster would be most important IMO.

Wow. Everyone needs to get their teenage daughters off their VN account. A lot of insecure Vol fans on tonight. Has anyone ever visited Austin? Let the kid have fun with the process. We're in good shape here and it's much better that he's visiting Austin than College Station.

"Life long Texas fans". We were in good shape until Texas called. I wish Dooley would go all Saban on him. Christian Harris stand up!

Hopefully Santos signs with the Vols and not Texas. I think he realizes TX is coming on late. But you can never tell with instate kids and the state college(Texas in this case).
