Class of 2024 QB Andy Bass (OK) Verbal to Oklahoma

[Roger N]

I get the impression he’s waiting on something closer to home. K State only offered him as a PWO so far and I have my doubts as to the OK offer being commitable.

It appears that Oklahoma did not offer him as as a QB.

Is it Andy Bass like the fish or Bass like the Megan Trainer ?

 

[orangemass]

Time to catch a big bass

It doesn't sound like we have offered him as a QB either. Sounds like more of a football player role. A RB/WR who may get to throw some occasional passes.

Yes.

We’re all about that Bass.

Our version of Christian McCaffrey, perhaps?

He’s waiting on something otherwise he would have already committed to Syracuse. Whether it’s position or school.

 

[Toga]

I think Andy is definitely very interested in SU and we are not going to finish third.

Logically one would think it's us and one of the two from the heartland as the final choices.

The OU offer may not be for QB, and may not even be commitable.

And Beck has a track record for helping athletic guys show out, even if they’re not necessarily a “QB” all the time.

So, you’ve gotta like our chances here.

We may know more tomorrow. Written offers usually go out on 8/1.

Correct he was offered as an athlete and would be a RB or slot receiver. It is commitable.

It would be fair to guess that SU will be in his Top 3, since he mentions that he is planning a trip to attend the SU-Clemson game.

He says he models his game after Christian McCaffery as a very versatile player - I think the Jason Beck philosophy of using a player who can pass and run in unique roles on the field is be a big selling point in favor of Syracuse. I got the impression that he mentions Syracuse more than any other school in this interview. I think he also said his HS team scored 72 points in the state championship game!

Is visiting OU - I think today. That could change everything.

He’s lived in Oklahoma for three years. At least don’t have to compete with the dream school factor.

He’s lived in Oklahoma for three years. At least don’t have to compete with the dream school factor.

It is apparent in that interview he's not too terribly attached to the state of Oklahoma. His father is a Marine, and Andy seemed to relate more to San Diego than OK. He also says flat out he expects to play RB or slot in college. Certainly could be a good kick returner or punt returner too (IMO).

Maybe not exactly a LaNorris Sellers situation, since Sellers was committed to Jason Beck for 2 years, and Bass is not committed to any school. But OU is a SEC school in his home state. He also says he's never had a dream school. He just starting getting college offers in May, and is playing it as they come.

Be nice but it may be k state. However official offers went out yesterday so you never know.

 

[RF2044]

Whoa - didn't necessarily expect that.

Hope he ends up here, for selfish football reasons. But if this was my kid, I know what I'd be advising him to do.

 

[orangenauburn]

Gotta be between OU and SU, right?

I think we land this fish

 

[kcsu]

It will be tough for him to leave the state

He's a military brat, by the sounds of it -- not sure that he has long-standing ties to the state.

I don’t think it’s KSU. I didn’t think we were getting him, now I don’t know but I don’t think it’s KSU

 

[Cuse'91]

Kid seems genuinely interested in us. If Beck is still around; maybe we get him through Portal in a few years, if he chooses OU or KSU.

 

[Dmcnabbrules]

I think SU is good here. He likes Beck. Dino's military upbringing can't hurt here. Not sure if OU or KSU are full scholarship offers.
Edit: Dont think he picks SU now.

 

[sufandu]

Not so. There are highways in all directions and lot's of planes.

 

[PhatOrange]

I don’t believe we’regetting him, but if he’s a military brat from a military family, they may very well have bonded with Dino

 

[Dmcnabbrules]

I think you’re right.
