If that LOI was indeed for ND, I wonder what happened at the last minute to make him hesitate?

If I'm guessing, he called Jimmy Lake and said he was flipping. Lake was able to convince him to hold off. Asa maybe did it out of courtesy to Lake, or he still was really conflicted.

The fact that his high school made that earlier tweet to "stay tuned" only hours after Asa said he wasn't ready to sign, makes me think that Asa did have his mind made up and was doing this out of courtesy to Lake.

Just one theory.

That ND fan on the Hardcore Huskey board simply needs to stop posting. No matter how reasonable his posts may be, the Huskey fans are to the point that they are saying F**k you and spewing Anti-Catholic filth.

Unless they sign, Coaches aren’t allowed to contact during the signing period, correct?

How is it that GB can speak intelligibly on Twitter, but but not on IE? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
GBdomer's tweet to Ruth. He nailed it. Too funny.

Nope you've just been trolled so hard today by people in Indiana that you don't even realize they are making fun of you— Michael Sullivan (@Sully1921) December 19, 2018

The amount of consternation from Washington fans over a 90 rating recruit is pure comedy. That fan base is a bunch of amateurs.

Yet here we are wringing hands over a 3-4* recruit and making fun of their fanbase. I'm just kinda 'meh' on the kid. Won't make or break anything for ND and giving Udub a way bigger stage than they deserve.

Staff can call and text during dead periods now. Used to be radio silence. Now it’s just zero face to face contact of any kind during the dead period. Unfortunately that means he’ll be getting Brian Kelly, Clark Lea, Brian Polian and probably more ND staffers giving him calls and texts all day and all night until that letter comes in. On top of that, Chris Petersen, Jimmy Lake, and Peter Kwiatkowski are probably blowing him up too. Gonna be an absolute battle until he’s worn down and decides he needs to send a letter to someone to stop this stuff. It’s sad but around signing day, it gets incredibly aggressive, overbearing, and downright exhausting to be recruited. That’s why a lot of these kids get the process out of the way earlier if they can.

I want this to drag out a few more days so I can see more meltdown from Ruth.

finally in Indy and just catching up on the details.

Someone Photochop a large golden spatula hanging from a dookie rope around his neck and name it:

BKHomeboy and the Flip Chain. Then post it on the UDub site.

Love it. Make it a gif, and put BK on a boat. And toss in TDJesus and Asa with his hair flowing beautifully lol...

I haven’t seen one ND fan freak out about this recruitment. I’ve seen plenty of ND fans enjoy the freak out from all the UW fans.

we've freaked out plenty over the years with similar stuff. glad we had zero drama, and the shoe is on the other foot.

Whatever could he be referring to

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">"We just operate sucha different way", Coach Pete said, and was pretty blunt in blasting coaches who keep bugging kids who have been committed for a long time</p>— Ruth J Robbins (@RuthJRobbins) <a href="https://twitter.com/RuthJRobbins/status/1075513803637321728?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 19, 2018</a></blockquote>

Welcom to big boy cruitin' Coach Pete.

I’m disappointed in you, LAX. Everyone knows it’s a sin to work on NSD/ESP.

Or travel... at least I left after all the 21 were locked.


I'm not sure which would be more enjoyable

Asa sending in a letter of intent tonight

OR

Having this thing go on till February so we can be entertained by Ruth for the next 45 days.

February please. Just cause I enjoy Ruth.

Beyond that, it’s an unresolved situation at the moment and the person who suffers the most from a public stink about it is Turner.

Asa will be fine. His neighbors in Cali and peeps in the Islands don't give a sheet.

GB is the man

Lol. I've listened to his interviews, he is not someone seeking attention. That's the worst part about this whole ordeal. Now he has some mindless woman passive-aggressively attacking him about his commitment and a Coach taking cheap shots at other programs and it's all at his expense.

It puts the spotlight directly on him and it was unnecessary. If he wants to join the Irish, I'll be really happy because it's another player with a high ceiling who could realize his potential at ND.

If he wants to join UDub, I'll still root for him. I can't root for his team but I'll root for him because he seems like a good person trying to make the best decision.

They'll have to produce two more "boxing warm-up clips" for Turner and Foskey. Maybe that's the delay. :)

20 scholarship players
JD Bertrand
Harrison Leonard
22 players that will eventually be on scholarship

They are not counting Ratigan. He'll never get a scholarship, he most likely goes for free as long as Dad is the team doctor.

This is my favorite over there:

Notre Dame is the original football factory and flourished after the Ivy schools decided that football was too low brow for them

It was never known for academis and never will be. It is famous for football. And that has been struggling to put it mildly

It could be that Foskey signed. I'd imagine that's what happened.

But that's not known, even by anyone at ISD.

He said in the soundbite that he may take a couple days or less to make his decision. The longest this will continue is through tomorrow.
