It's already over. I don't get why everyone is so pessimistic. The beat didn't leave even leave us with much space between the lines to read into. RL is already Irish
Ok...so my simple question would be...what's the holdup in announcing? Why Monday and not Sunday? Is it contract? Is it a cool insta photo shoot? Just seriously curious if it's a done deal....why not say so.

Because he can schedule his announcement whenever he wants. He doesn’t answer to fan’s wants and anxiety.

In general if you want attention, weekend announcements are the worst, followed by Fridays. People's lives come alive during this time and no one cares. It's why this is when famous ppl/companies make aware their black eyes.
And Ohanti or whatever dropping his news may cause Riley to lose some luster lol

cause some people like to have there moment?
also coaches will have a player hold off their announcement for specific reasons. happens quite often.

Alsooooooo... why does it matter. its a life changing decision for the kid. he will announce when hes ready to.

I get that, and I don't have any anxiety. But lets pretend I'm the guy who agreed to bring him on and pay him X dollars. If he is a potential first domino especially in the WR room. I want him to tell me yes...and the public at the same time...as it will make my investment in him worth more.. That's kinda my point if you could follow my rambling.

In short, as soon as RL is Irish, let everyone know ASAP as it could have positive impact for my investment.

Not how it works these days. If he announces, I hope he does a hat pick.

The first WR domino already fell and he likely had a part in it. The second WR domino looks to be in the fold and it appears he also had a part of that. And any guys they are currently worked on will know he is committed.

I'm sure the investors already know he in if they are the ones that did all the paperwork.
Literally the only piece left is fans and it's really a non factor in anything important.
You mean us fans, who in a roundabout way pay for everything. 😔

Yeah at some point - if this drags past Monday - MF and GP need give him ultimatum— Shit or get off the pot!

I just don't like smoke . I hope this is the case. If not and we missed out on Howard, I'll be sad.
If we passed on Howard but don't get Leonard it is a colossal fuck, like time for large questions about Freeman's judgement.
But as yet there's no sign that's going to happen.
Leonard can announce when he damn well pleases. He doesn't actually owe us fans anything, and seems to be recruiting transfer WRs all over the place, so I'm not too worried about "dominoes." I'll only worry if he starts showing (real) signs of interest elsewhere.

Allegedly but I won’t believe to I see (the headline). And that’s great if true but coaches need to start tje PR show with his announcement to go after other O players. He does already seem to be doing that which is also great. It’s also important for retention of current players and ‘24 class.
