Class of 2021 C Lyndon Cooper (GA) Offered

[PhatOrange]

Not going down without a fight.

Clearly he’s still a take as of this time.
That may change depending on who else verbals moving forward.

I’d imagine Cruz & Maro are the top 2 uncommitted guys left on our board for OLine?

they sent Blair an official offer to.

This kid is my 1st choice, then Cruz then Maro and or Cooper if he flips

 

[Cusefan69]

So Lyndon who said he is 100% committed to NC State posted a Syracuse offer? Huh? Did he post his other offers? Strange.

Just the official offers from NC State and Syracuse.

If McF--- Face is still there, he probably told him to troll us by posting it.

Well, that would be fitting.
Because it’s the exact opposite thing -

Cooper has accepted NC State’s marriage proposal.

However, he also posted the engagement ring offered to him by Syracuse.

Who looks bad in that scenario?

Hint - it ain’t Syracuse.

Which is why I find that strange he did it. Clearly as noted Syracuse has not stopped pursuit and Babers has been able to flip. Maybe its nothing, maybe he is still in play.

 

[Sudano]

Things that make you go hmmmm,

He just got this and posted it? I thought he picked NC St. over a SU official offer.
Or did he commit then got an offer from SU. We couldn't have offered a week and half earlier? I'm confused.

The "official" offer could not be sent out before 8/1. The offer was verbal before that.

 

[IthacaBarrel]

who knows anymore. I would say that we may still be in this one as there is so much time left

Well, in an engagement ring scenario, we both look bad.

I'd prefer to be the bridesmaid that the groom bangs after the rehearsal dinner and then calls off the wedding.

I really need to get out more.

Thanks. So he committed to a NC St. unofficial offer on 7/20/20 knowing none of his offers were official hoping it and possibly others were becoming official only 12 days later. Hmm.

Let's not overthink this.

Our coaching staff had this kid on campus with his family, and built a strong rapport. They thought they had a strong chance of landing him, but ultimately he elected for a school that was closer to home.

Nothing is set in stone until he signs on the dotted line, so despite him verbally committing elsewhere, the coaches are clearly continuing to work on him, hoping to leverage the strong relationship they formed to see if they can flip him.

I don't think it's anything unscrupulous on the kid's part -- nor on our coaching staff. All's fair in recruiting.

Perhaps you need to rethink your life.

Huh? How did you conclude this from my post. Not implying anyone being unscrupulous.
Thought it was odd that someone would verbally commit to anyone 12 days before any 'offer' could be official (assuming the poster was correct) then tweet the official offer of the school he didn't choose on the first day of official offers. Interesting and confusing. Not unscrupulous.

 

[CuseLegacy]

Kids like to tweet out their offers. An official, written offer shows proof that the verbal offer was commitable. Recruiting is never over until that NLI is signed.

Exactly. And when he commits to Syracuse we can say he flew the Coop!

Unless it is another school doing that exact same thing to us. Then it is the most vile thing that has ever happened. And the coaches from that school should be banned from the sport

Are you coming out on the board, Chip? Good for you!

He is very courageous.

Where have you been?

In a closet somewhere?

Like this kids film alot. Squat build, very solid lower body. Works off a solid base and plays with excellent pad level. Shows very good playing strength, regularly demolishes pressure with a single touch. Shows ability to chip and slide to pressure and very good awareness in protection. Concerns would be size (height) and not alot of footage of him snapping the ball. I would consider him a pure center prospect at D1 level.
