Not cool at all.

Beamer: Elite linebacker Jaishawn Barham's flip from USC to Maryland was deceptive

As it turns out elite linebacker Jaishawn Barham's late flip from South Carolina to home state Maryland was an underhanded plan all along.

Using the kid as a pawn. Recruiting is already ugly. Deceitful acts like this is gonna make it worse..

Oh that Michael Locksley

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Hopefully this kid portals next October.

Joke, that’s one way to coach somebody up and teach young men to be leaders.

Go pound salt, happy you’re not wearing our uniform. Locks key doesn’t deserve the energy it’s taking to type this.

Sleeze bag. That being said, if a top basketball recruit wanted to come to cuse and do this to Uconn, I’d be all for it.

Besides being a historically bad head coach, Locksley is also known as one of the sleaziest in the business. So this isn’t really a surprise to me.

Same thing happened with another recruit from the same high school:

Maryland flips local 3-star o-line prospect away from Penn State

I'd be leery of even recruiting in St. Frances Academy.

We might have gotten the best kid to come out of that program.

Locksley is definitely sleazy but there’s some darn fine parenting going on here as well.

Definitely one of the best.

Who?

Who?

Kingsley.

I actually thought this was super common in recruiting.

No. Flipping is common, but not like that.

Purposely commit to one program only to make a big splash on signing day 4 days later? Not sure how common that is. Coaches put a lot of time and resources recruiting kids. Beamer thought he had that postion set for this cycle. He got played.

And obviously some shady stuff happened for him to end up at Maryland too with Beamer saying “that’s a story for another time”

good point, someone felt they had to tip him in advance. There must be some people that really respect him.

Recruiting was, is, and will likely always be a serious pain in the ***.

Or is it that fans usually don't hear about it with this detail? I just assume these kids are getting tons of texts a day, their mind is going all over the place, parents, coaches, trainers, etc..

I'll admit..didn't see the 4 days in between commitment/flipping...damn ads..

But I have to think shady crap like this happens all the time in recruiting. Same thing we don't hear about the money and cars and stuff. We only know when people get called out.

I’m not sure there’s ever been a commit to do it like this to try and make another coach look like a hero

That’s kind of….odd

It doesnt mean there shouldnt be a reaction when the public hear the details. We know shady crap happens all the time in recruiting. Coaching cant talk about kids they don't sign. It pissed Beamer off so much that he decided to call it out. Now we get to talk about it.
