It saves me time from having to retype everything everytime someone has a question. :wink:

My typing gets sloppy when I hurry, which is quite often on the boards.

I'm pretty sure that it is between ND and Tom Osborne. The other schools on his list were there before he chose Nebraska. I can't see him having a revelation and saying that any of those schools jumped ahead of Nebraska. The only thing that has changed is the fact that he got an offer from ND. Should be an interesting week.

That's not what he said, he didn't completely eliminate them but he didn't even list them as one of the schools he's interested in. You guys can use their national data base if you want, But I'll take the quotes from him that were written by guys that talked to him within the past 48 hours. Rember that UM jumped in the game pretty late too. They only offered shortly before he commited to NU.

Yep, that's why we changed him from a Nebraska verbal to a offcial offer last night. Although they're not completely out of the picture just yet, and Jonas is supposed to talk to Tom Osbourne later this week.

"And the best part of playing for Nebraska young man? When you get in trouble we hide all the evidence. If you have a gun to get rid of, just drop it off at my office; tell the assistant to put it in my mailbox."

Welcome! Look forward to seeing that horsepower in the lineup. Great to see a real fan of the school get in too, after we almost didn't offer. Congrats

We are right, he did not commit today, it was last night

I'm actually a little suprised that it happen so soon given what he told BGI last night, and Rivals's Pete Samson earlier in the day yesterday. Come on VC members, back me up here, I had solid info to back up my thoughts and opinions here. :whoknows:

I always find star rankings exciting. Jonas Gray joins Steve Filer and Ethan Johnson as the highest rated 4 star prospects Rivals hands out. a 6.1 is a 5-star, jonas gray (and filer/johnson) are rated at a 6.0 right now.

Plus Gray just has the look of a great football player to him.

In another one of the latest stories breaking about Jonas he mentioned that his interest was piqued when CB suggested a vist to ND at about this time last week, and that he has kept in constant contact with several ND players that include Clausen, Allen, and Rogone who Jonas spoke to almost every day.

I had a feeling Jonas was going to commit this week, but not today. These recruits are smart to see the future and not the present

I agree....all signs pointed to a quick committment, but having it happen this quick is really awesome.

Did I not call it GoshenGipper, I know what he said was leading to a longer period of time before the commitment, I just had a little inside info.

Sweet pick up

I called it yesterday afternoon a 4:36pm too, and I have a time stamp to prove it. I usually just don't share everyting I know in the public forums. Although I'll give you credit for calling for it to happen today or tomorrow. I expected it to happen later this week.
