Good for him, his LOI was sent to ND.

I don't find this reassuring by itself; wouldn't he just have to sit out a year (which didn't stop Prestwood)?

you actually believe this? and you actually believe that its Davontes made that account?

Based on a quick look it could easily be a fake page. No personal photos (at least none visible to me), just football pics that would probably be pretty easy to steal from news articles, etc., and the friends seemed very random ... only a few from Chapparal, none from his first high school or new high school, no Cody Ippolito, who is supposedly his best friend. Hoping/guessing this is a hoax.

guys i really dont think its Davontes facebook page.

I agree...Neal has never posted on his so called page.

Its a fake account, easy to tell. A kid from the new school thought it would be a good prank most likely. You guys need to chill, Neal wouldnt transfer without ever setting foot on campus (as a student) or playing a game...

Who wants to bet 50k vBux he shows up in SB?

(I gotta try and get my dough kid!)

The kids around Davonte (probably the ones that chased him out of his old school) seem like typical idiot teenagers. They've turned harassing into a real-life meme, presumably because they understand that he is on his way to accomplishing more than the rest of them will in their lives. And they're jealous as **** about it. Haters gonna hate, as they say.

I know you're trying to be reassuring of the situation, but why not? See Prestwood and FSU. Granted, I won't believe this til a good source confirms it, but still- it's not impossible.

EDIT: I guess that's apples and oranges since Prestwood technically did step foot on campus as a student. Bleh.

Is this kind of crap going to follow this kid around for 3-4 years? I hope it dies down.....

johnnykillz · Mar 7, 2012

...

He's a top recruit and many negative things have happened to him.

Of course he will be trialled and too, he has made good decisions amongst the chaos.

Satan's minions are pissed. But apparently they no longer had any room at pOSU.

And **** rod is a poseur.

johnnykillz · Mar 7, 2012

And don't kid yourself, Petrino would love to have him even while sitting a year out.

He's electric.

koonja · Mar 7, 2012

Arkansas didn't even make his top two. He was down to Az and ND, so any rumor about Arkansas doesn't seem legit at all.

IrishinTN · Mar 7, 2012

As quiet as he was during the process i seriously doubt he'd announce to the world he is leaving before he even gets there. And more than that, do you seriously think his dad would allow it?

It depends on how you look at it. In his interview after his announcement he kind of gave conflicting messages at one point saying that it was down to Arizona and ND. Then later on he basically said it was really down to ND and Arkansas.

My impression was that it was a tough choice to eliminate Arizona. But once Arizona was eliminated a couple of weeks before the announcement, then it was down to ND and Arkansas if he were to go out of state.

Officially Arkansas was the #2 choice at the end, but I think we all know that Davonte would've preferred to go to Arizona over Arkansas.

From Sapp after talking to Luke Neal today:
His father, Luke Neal, on the matter:
"He doesn't have a Facebook."

Ridiculous that we even have to deal with this. Social media has made recruiting a sh!t show. And I've already gone on record as to how much I hate that facebook group, regardless of whether or not it had anything to do with this. It just makes me mad.

Hahahaha that is awesome. Perfect.

I have this account added as a friend, there are no pics of him outside of ESPN allamerican pics.

Are we still debating this?

It's not his facebook page.

Move on.

Cornerback bound w/ Shepard news ?

I hope so since we have brown, GA3, Jones, and Onwualu with ability to play slot

Kid is very physical at corner will fit in well with brown or Jackson on other side IMO

I disagree.. too much to lose in big play ability from Neal moving to D. We have a great couple of guys in B Jax and Jalen. Our front seven will be an anchor for the CBs to improve.

Neal is too explosive to be a defensive player IMO

I hope he is used like Charles woodson

STLDomer · Mar 15, 2012

Have u guys ever seen a kid named Tyrann Mathieu? Explosiveness on defense and special teams Plus Neal is more talented in coverage than Mathieu

Either way we have proven depth at slot this year (Toma) and unproven depth at corner ( Bennet is a position switch and we have never seen him in coverage, everyone bases browns potential on Floyd, wood is too small)

Let me clarify...I meant too explosive to be used ONLY on defense. I would love to see him play both ways
