Class of 2016 RB Robert Washington (NC) to UNC Charlotte

[IDOC]

The last 11 predictions are all SU, with the last 10 coming in the past couple of days. I like that. Hope they are correct!

I don't spend that much time on that site but their predictions for the last 3 or 4 recruits that we were happy to get last class were all wrong! From the looks of it Robert will end up in the NFL no matter which school he chooses. SU gives him the opportunity for a superior education, becoming the recruit that played a major role in bringing back SU football and the best shot for very early playing time. Three good reasons to become orange if he so chooses. Seems like a nice young man so good luck to him wherever he goes. He would however look good in orange!

Or even blue! Sorry - no need to start a uniform discussion in this thread

Not unless you want to be put in time out.

Haha now try to take this same train comparison and apply it to old and new football uniforms and see what mayhem ensues

The reporter can stand by whatever he wants but he could also show some common decency in this instance or common sense really. He stood by his story so what happens if RW chooses Cuse, does huge things, and this reporter and his paper no longer get the priviledge of interviews from RW or his colleagues? Ignoring that simple request could have lasting implications.

Possibly losing access to an athlete(s) (a college one nonetheless) isn't a reason to post a retraction or take down a story.

What was he before?

 

[jekelish]

I mean, wouldn't it be fitting for us to bring in recruits named Washington and Coleman and Thompson to help turn the program around?

116/8 = 14.5

Round it down to 14 because I said so.

14+8 (#8 RB) = 22

22 x 2 (2 days away from the announcement) = 44.

Here you go

Let's hope that if/when Robert commits, the coaches replace the usual "BOOM" with a "BAM" to reward your efforts.

I just wept ... its pure joy.

So how about, maybe, everyone just relax until Saturday at 3 pm?

I'm waiting for someone to use the weather on Saturday as an early indication of where he is committing.

Some of your are losing your minds and going batshitt crazy over small stuff. Let's all remain bullish, go have several cocktails and then reconvene on Saturday afternoon.

I'm still thinking we're celebrating, but who the knows in the recruiting world.

I thought his motto was hard NOSED

44 hours until The Decision

Ok this week month what ever has taken another strange turn. A couple of us on here have been talking with rw's dad directly. The other day rumors started swirling that dad didn't know what he was talking about when he was saying CUSE had nothing to be afraid of. Last night I spoke with dad again and he was giving me his side. There was some strange things about it but I just wanted to keep the peace and was posting to smooth things over. Well tonite rw has told everyone his dad is not involved with his recruitment in any way. All the warm fuzzy feelings all the service putting cuse ahead are based off false reports. The truth is we are one of 6 and that's it. We will need to wait till Saturday to see if we have a shot. It's kind of embaressing at least for me. I have been talking with him for a few months and I feel stupid for buying in to what was going on.

It could just be damage control

Thanks. I still continue to hope it's us, but after all that's been said and done, I feel our chances have never been any greater than any other school. Hope it happens, but I'm not going to let it ruin my weekend if it doesn't.

Thanks for sharing. To me this doesn't sound too promising. I thought dad mentioned in one of the articles that Smith was going to visit on either April 28 or May 28. Why would he visit if Robert wasn't planning to commit to SU?

theyre going to recruit him to the end regardless of which school he chooses. I find it hard to believe that (assuming he has a healthy relationship with his father) that his girlfriend knows before his dad. We'll see
