Getting Simon and Lacey would calm my nerves for a minute. But that doesn't make the summer situations with Oweh, Austin Jr, or Burton any better. Oweh should be ours based on academic fit and depth chart, and visiting twice this summer. We should be able to close on a 3-star CB based on our CB recruiting when one visits from Georgia and is open to committing - I'm sorry. Austin's leaned towards ND for months, but won't pull.
That bothers me.
Yes, weak willed.
Plus, as we've went over before.
1. Austin has ALWAYS planned on a late summer (august) decision and taking OV's after that. He's literally been saying that the ENTIRE time. You are, literally, just making up things in that crazy dome of yours.
2. Similarly to Austin, Burton has said the ENTIRE time, he was going to take visits (see, that's plural, as in more than one). He wants to visit other schools, now that him and his dad have the time to do so, he's just following through on that.
3. Clearly Oweh isn't as worried about academic fit, as what was previously reported. Time to move on, just the way it is. How is that ND's fault? Because of 4-8, spare me that, we are and will be landing other quality players, in spite of that. Because they see the value in ND, not just a 4-8 season. So his decision came down to Football, football, Football, and distance (?, lol). ND is not going to win a lot of those recruitments. Belaboring the 4-8 point is extremely trivial at this point.
The staff is working hard and the pitch is getting home to some prospects. Give the season time to unfold before we throw in the towel. Nut up buttercup.
