MF has to play the game because he wants to convey to this kid and family how special ND is and how it’s changed his life. Tough to neg recruit that part of it.

Agreed. It seems really weird to want to stunt on a place that has done nothing but welcome you with open arms.

And to be clear I generally feel that way about most recruiting drama like this. Like, Hood doing the "roll toilet" post. Dude, that's Alabama saying they like you and are willing to give you a free ride. Just seems incredibly immature. It would be like getting a job offers, taking a position at a specific employer, and then sending a nasty email to your other offers just for kicks.
I'd be a little more understanding if it was just Oklahoma and ND. He's struggling with leaving his GF and family to go out on his own. Ok, make that decision like a man and move on. Including Oregon and A&M in this, is just for drama, attention, and money.

He would have applied to those schools a bit ago when he was still considering them so the Oregon, A&M stuff isn’t that uncommon. I’m sure some prospect we aren’t getting applied to ND.

People keep defending Bowen here. You can stop. He’s about to fuck someone over and that’s probably going to be us. If he does choose us then he’s fucking over OU, which I’m all for, but it’s still a dick move.

It sucks that coaches have to kiss 5 star’s asses. I guess that’s the business though. If Bowen was some generic 3 star I think MF would have told him, very politely, to kick rocks months ago.

Will probably end up at OU then notice all the other coeds and break up with his GF.

If I'm MF, I'd my foot down. Go in home and tell him we want you. You'll have a chance to be a day 1 starter. You'll be great and you'll probably make a lot of money doing it. But if you let OU in this house tomorrow, we're out.

Sure it is.

Venables: “we want to do a visit Friday”

Bowen: “I’m talking to ND Thursday, how about Tuesday or Wednesday?”
Sounds like Bowen had visits from other schools set up for Tuesday and Wednesday.

Also sounds like OU and A&M are coming in on Friday.

Any consolation is that we get the day to ourselves.

Him telling MF he given his Friday visit to others is basically decommiting in all but words

Not sure MF has a choice but to be out when OU steps foot in the house the next day.

Never count A$M out. They are capable and willing to throw money around that probably only Texas can match

Wake me up when f.u.n.d.s. aren't low.
Get used to it boys, 5 stars require money.
Don't make excuses for the BOT and administration..They keep your favorite program down and always will. 11 Championships is how it ends.

Unless we get a rogue booster who tells ND BOT to Fuck right off

Smart money is on Oklahoma, but I don’t think ND is quite as dead in the water as some may believe. He certainly isn’t as 100% done deal locked in on Oklahoma as many on their side pretend. Which means there’s at least a small sliver of hope.

Their writers will probably come out after the fact and say “he committed months ago” but honestly I think he said to them what they wanted to hear to get them to chill a little. Same way ND writers would be like “he always said he was sticking with ND.”

Piecing some stuff together… if he was actually a done deal to Oklahoma, he would be acting differently than he is. But I still make them the HEAVY favorites mainly because of what people are saying about the GF and other connections. Anyone who is “confident” in their sources right now is just making an educated bet tho.
