The Kerry Blackshear Thread

[butchna]

Lol at least we got BurninOrange on record as being wrong. Wonder who his source was on this. Things went from BOOM to BUST in less than an hour.

If he ends up correct you just nabbed this award.

Play for a coach who can develop players and send them to the NBA or play for a Pee Wee Herman coached team who jacks up 3’s in close game situations.

Makes perfect sense.

There’s a reason I kept questioning BO, and flat out said he was way more optimistic than I was...while Tennessee was in it, they never got a commitment and never felt like they were the favorites either.

I BELIEVE IN BURNS!!!


Learn from your mistakes and let’s get past this corner big man!!

If he ends up correct, I'll take a dumb gif award 1000x over if it means we got Blackshear. But there are 2 different Rivals reporters saying its UF. I'll choose to believe that over an anonymous message board rumor. I mean no malice or ill-will by that either. It's just hard to believe message board insiders.

Everyone just start putting their own posts as quotes when they tweet. Or maybe the tweet function should come with an auto-quote so it will start fooking working again.

Lol and Mike White is terrrrible

 

[OJJ]

What a joke.. Maybe he is as dumb as VT fans claim

 

[rdk4121]

I thought he was going to VT? Then it was between vt and us. Before that it was us and UK, before that Florida and ark, now Florida again? Let's just wait until he actually says something.

 

[cncchris33]

Well I guess wanting to go to a team that he can compete for championships was complete nonsense.

Florida should be very good if they add Blackshear to the class they have coming in and the players they return. In fact, they are probably the 2nd best team in the SEC, on paper.

And I’ve seen Rivals guys get bamboozled. It’s why I wait to call ANYONE out.

Should be.. But White can't coach

 

[TheMookieMonster]

This kid needs to take a seat after all this is said and done. Copy and pasting message board Rivals/247 employees is not journalism.

Look who’s coaching that team though.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

It's now critical that Plavsic can play immediately.

It will be interesting if Burns draws the defensive assignments on Blackshear, but if he plays he'll probably matchup with Stokes.

Yup...it’s been funny how all his updates have come AFTER a Rivals or 247 update

No, I agree. That is why I said, "on paper". Obviously, if he goes to UF, then White's coaching didn't concern him, he didn't research it for himself (which is puzzling given the time he's taken), or White somehow convinced him that he'd be an integral part of the offense...something he's never done before at Florida.

Basically this came down to his mom.. She wanted him there.

Fulmer must be sweating this one big time.

BurninOrange rn

That's a really dumb reason for a kid on a 1-yr mission to market himself to NBA teams to choose a school. His mom did him no favors.

Addressed

 

[golfballs]

I said from the beginning that Florida made a lot of sense from a fit and competitiveness perspective. Just don’t know about how much Mike White is going to help improve his stock.

Unfortunately I saw something today about the NCAA wanting to make it so attaining an eligibility wavier was more difficult. It’s infuriating how much they try and control these unpaid athletes who are making them so much money

Yeah, he's not getting eligible.
