Re: One of our Decommits May Be Coming Back

BJ Diakite committed to us way back in March then decommed in November. Apparently GA Tech was the other suitor. He's visited them several times, but he's taking an official with us this weekend and he's predicted to re-commit this weekend. He tweeted this a week or so ago, saying he doesn't plan t...

Honors for Levi Harber, VU OL commit from Montrose, MI

Harber, 6-5 280, was recently named All-State in Michigan, as well as scholar-athlete of the month. “Big, strong, physical,” is how coach Dennis Reinhart described Harber. “A dominating run blocker who is not satisfied unless he gets a pancake block. Also, a great pass blocker. He will go down as on...

VU commit Jayden McGowan may be the shot in the arm that special teams needs

Jayden McGowan, a 5-8 170 WR from Laurens, SC, is one of the under-the-radar commits for Vandy, but I came across some statistics for him from this past season: - Two blocked kicks - 13 punt returns for 187 yards and a touchdown - 8 kickoff returns for 177 yards This to go with 38 catches for 578 ya...

Duke hires Mike Elko, another one of Lea's former mentors

https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/32839321/sources-duke-hiring-texas-defensive-coordinator-mike-elko-head-football-coach This is significant because going into the final days of recruiting, Vandy is still trying to convince a couple of Duke commits under David Cutcliffe to flip (Savio...

Re: Former VU star Chris Marve named DC at Virginia Tech

Why isn't he here? Much as we are all fans of Chris, 31 years old is very young to be a coordinator, and Pry is taking a big risk to hire him for that position. Pry obviously thinks he can groom Marve into the position (Pry had become a first-tier DC himself), and for Marve, it's a golden opportuni...

Whole lotta Poachin' goin' on!

Having been successful at convincing A.J. Swann away from his commitment to Maryland, and Trudell Berry away from his commitment to Marshall, here are some other guys committed other places that Vandy is trying to sway this week: - Jeffrey Ugo (was committed to Utah, has already de-committed and is ...

I was Wr... Wr... Some terrible preseason predictions

I went back and looked at some of my "fearless" preseason predictions, and some of them are pretty cringe-worthy to read now. Oh well, if you're going to put yourself out there like I do, you have to face the music and eat some humble pie. David Raih's offense is going to start putting up ...

Re: Early Signing Day 12/15

It seems pretty obvious that Jeffrey Ugo, a 6-1 185 Safety from Houston, should be following Trudell Berry and making a commitment to Vandy soon. https://www.hudl.com/profile/12468700/Jeffrey-Ugo P.S. You don't have to pay premium sites to see film on these guys any more. Almost all of them are post...

Re: Early Signing Day 12/15

Re: Trudell Berry de-commits from Marshall after weekend visit to VU

Stupid question on my part, but having seen a number of these tweets, am I correct in assuming that most times when a prospect visits, they go ahead and suit up for photos like this for use later if they ultimately commit? That is, a photo shoot is a routine part of an official visit? Yep, just abo...

Re: Trudell Berry de-commits from Marshall after weekend visit to VU

And hey, just noticed that Ja'Dais Richard took note of Trudell Berry's commitment and has "re-tweeted" it as a story on Instagram. The two were together this weekend on visits and got to know each other. What would make Ja'Dais pass this news along? Could Ja'Dais be next to make a commitm...
