Honest question here. Currently is he a verbal commit? Or has he actually signed a letter of intent? Can he even do that at his age?

He is a verbal

 

[cuseinseattle]

He’s a verbal commit, he can’t sign yet.

which is what meant as far as...what else can we do at this point? Kid verballed early and has been talking up how he’s going to get others to come too. I’m stumped at why some are negative on it and always hinting that he “might” not actually come here - based on their own speculations.

We used to celebrate getting early verbals from guys like Waiters and MCW.

I think some of the people are move on from jb people and don't want success at the end to influence the next hire

I'm not sure that really matters with regard to the argument some people are making. He could sign a LOI and still jump straight to the pros.

I'm really not worried one way or the other. I've honestly stopped having any expectations for who will be on the team until preseason starts.
