Alex Officer update

[orangenauburn]

per Nolan's chat:

Louisville and Pitt are the biggest challenges for his services.

No surprise

Ville is a legit threat

 

[Whitey23]

i guess the offer for VT never came?

 

[bnoro]

He wasn't going to go to VT after how they treated his brother.

i thought the overwhelming board opinion was that he was waiting for a VT offer?

maybe the board thought that was the case, but he was very put off by what his brother (jerome lewis) told him about VT and he doesn't want to listen to what they have to say

 

[Cadillac]

I heard Rutgers.

And didn't this kid's brother admit to jumping at the biggest name so that he could impress people?

Not that I'm judging, I mean, that strategy did work out for me.

 

[PhatOrange]

The board opinion is that officer is waiting for a bigger offer. I don't think anyone thought vt since his brother quit there.

If he wants to play d2 schools in the sun beast conference he can have at it. If he ends up at buttgers though well never hear the end of it

Noooooo. He never had any interest in VT at all. He was hoping he'd end up hearing from Ohio State, but I guess they never did.

His HS is in the Sectional Finals now though. Beat McQuaid in double OT tonight.

Congrats to the Lancers, it was an awesome finish. Thought he was out last night?

Was he? No idea. I haven't been able to make it home to see any of their games, but yeah, what an insane finish.

 

[Melancer46]

Also, it's Officer's birthday today just so you all know lol

 

[Jeepers]

Any news on Officer?

 

[OburgCuse]

Any news on Officer?

He's on an official at Pitt as we speak

 

[Noexcuse]

Cuse pulled

Is that the end of reps from that family who do not want to play for Syracuse?

 

[SUFaninNJ]

Cuse pulled

I'm sure that left him frustrated and unsatisfied.

 

[money3189]

off to pitt

 

[oldpinepoint]

off to pitt

good for him

 

[sutomcat]

Cuse pulled

Can you provide more info Money?

Was it a change of heart by the SU coaches? Did he wait too long and lose his spot (presumably to John Miller)? We are still recruiting interior linemen so that doesn't make a lot of sense...

 

[JD]

I am pretty sure that when they tried to reach out to him and he showed no interest, they read the tea leaves and pulled the offer.

 

[OrangeMojo]

Yeah they pulled his offer awhile back. Ive mentioned that before. He was playing GAMES. They decided to move on and take the juco route.

good

 

[wfschrec]

Well we will still see him in the ACC ... hope it works out for him.

 

[orangenauburn]

doubtful

he is not 100% committed to the dedication needed

would not be surprised to see him buried on depth chart or quit football

 

[JPS]

A shame we couldnt get him if he is as good as advertised. Guess it wasn't meant to be for whatever reasons. On to the next one.
