'16 GA ATH Demetris Robertson (Georgia Transfer)

[Rocket89]

He's never visited Stanford and he is obsessed with them so I don't put much weight into # of visits.

That being said he is not going to Notre Dame.

If there ever was a recruit to not pay attention to "watch what I do not what I say" he could be the one. But most of the time it holds true.

Again, this decision will be made for more reasons that just best academics. Sister's free ride maybe?

I would think so. I have long thought Ga would be the school to beat with DRob due to his relationship with Kirby early on in his recruitment. Given his mom's wishes to stay close, his sister probably getting a track scholly, and several players he has openly said he wanted to play with already at Ga or heading there this fall, I would think the Bulldogs are absolutely the team to beat at this point. But every time I think one way or the other, DRob - or his handlers - put out something else that throws conventional wisdom out the window.

I agree as fans he owes us nothing and the coaches are paid handsomely to deal with recruits, but what power does he really hold? He isn't holding out for a better scholarship offer since they are all basically the same. ND is one of the few that will honor it all four years so from that standpoint we should be a logical pick. In reality, the only power he has now is simply his choice of school to attend unless a couple of schools are offering something under the table (car, money, coaching position for brother, etc.).

He has every right to decide on his own time frame, but this is not passing the smell test.

Again, this decision will be made for more reasons that just best academics. Sister's free ride maybe?

Although a date is not locked in as of today, Carlos says the plan is to get back on campus with his brother before a final decision is made.

"We are," said Carlos, when asked if he is planning to visit Notre Dame with Demetris. "I want to be able to evaluate some things since I never got up there."

[GrangerIrish24]

My marriage has been less of an emotional roller coaster than this

 

[IrishLion]

I don't even care what he's doing. Let's land the guy and see if he sticks.

 

[Cali_domer]

lol

[koonja]

I got 5 on him not visiting ND.

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Why is part of me excited right now?

I hate myself...

 

[NDShark]

Classic DRob thread, trying to steal the thunder from one of the greatest recruiting weekends in years.

That's all.

 

[BobbyMac]

My therapist said I shouldn't read this thread any longer because the Robertson's are actually crazier than me.

Signed, Me

 

[woolybug25]

That's all.

That's what I was thinking.

What are the chances that DRob's brother wont be a complete PITA for whatever team gets the pledge?

 

[koonja]

Has a reporter ever asked his brother what his childhood favorite team is? Do we know that?

I wonder if he's looking for a set of Malpass' keys to the Treasury? At least Cam's Dad was somewhat on the down low.

 

[GoIrish41]

I'm to the point that I don't even want this kid. Tired of ND helping to feed his ego. Coach should send out a tweet telling the kid and his brother to f off.

 

[koonja]

Any word on how much he now loves Georgia after visiting there this weekend?

My guess is he's now down to Georgia, Bama, and SMU following this weekend's visit.

Greg Bryant would probably love to have some company at UAB.

LOL. UAB wins the national championship in 2018.

andrew at rivals----"Notre Dame is still very much in the picture for DRob and is still actively recruiting him ... and I'm going to leave it at that for now."

said he is tired of the twists and turns and will report when an actual visit date is set up and even then he will believe it when he sees it

 

[Irishman77]

over/under of college teams he plays for is set at 2.5

He has the financial aid paperwork done for all of them already.

Need to start a GoFundMe account

0%, there is a 0% chance that this doesn't become an issue at some point during this kids future. Its honestly pretty funny how those around these kids have spent years convincing themselves that they are doing the best thing for the kid, that they really start to believe it. These "handlers" or what ever you want to call them, even if they are blood, just become needy and selfish individuals. It becomes more about them and less about the prospect.
