Must be something that came out of the weekend I'd suspect.

 

[SUFan44]

I was at the Philly airport last weekend and saw a kid that looked like a football recruit wearing an SU backpack.

I introduced myself to the mother and asked if they were heading up for an official visit. She said they were, the second one. Since he is in Delaware, Philly made sense for the departure point.

I said "oh exciting time" and mentioned the new coaches - she was a bit hesitant to say she loved the new staff. Didn't bash them by any stretch, but more of a "yeah, we do too... we think" sort of response. It felt like the visit was probably one to test the waters and get some answers on both sides.

I am not saying we told him no, but based on that interaction I would imagine that an honest conversation was had and the ball was in Graham's court.

Maybe he knows diggs is coming along with king and thinks there's better opportunity somewhere else?

 

[FreakTalksAboutSU]

This is weird. I mean, it is what it is, but the timing is odd.

That's to bad about Graham. Diggs and king are a must!!!!

 

[Bulldog04]

That ain’t good

 

[upperdeck]

you see some kids with big offer lists graded behind kids with avg offer lists and really do wonder sometimes. I mean he wasnt getting a ton of looks

 

[AngryOtto]

Liked him as a recruit. Trust the staff. Strange.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Recruiting is wild.

 

[All4SU]

Ugh.

I feel bad for the kids who have to scramble to make a new plan and find a new school at the 12th hour.

If the staff just told him and/or others in the last couple of days that they weren't interested, that would be disappointing.

 

[Ozone!]

I like this kid, too bad!

 

[Cusefan69]

Puts and Takes happening everywhere right now. My guess is he lands easily at another school. Enjoy the ride folks!

 

[CbusCuse]

Shoot. I really liked him. Just a guess but i'm betting the staff's thoughts had some influence on his decision. It does appear like this staff prefers taller edge rushers and being that Graham is only 6'-2" he doesn't' seem to fit their prtotype very well.

 

[orangemass]

Yuck. Really was high on him
