It was reported by local papers and SPP that he had signed but no announcement from us. Unsure whether he didnt sign or we released him from NLI. Surprise as he was so gung ho to play with his cousin.

Lmao just saw this too...crazy man but you have to see that coming with the class they’ve got and the new coach and facilities. Holy Cross is here and I won’t be surprised if they run away with the league. Shit of a hire with Tom, ruined the program until further notice as I see it

Reading his tweet, he states that he never signed . Newspaper reports were wrong.

He wasn't a December signing so nothing was ever set in stone right? That's how recruiting works. Find another guy......

Brought in a few WRs in the first class, none compare to ayir tho...I’m really hoping for a spalsh here in the late signing days....even if not though nothing wrong with a healthy christano, porrtereal, bibbens/dambach and Falcone plus the other freshmam

Agree LG. We need bodies but talented kids who can contribute much preferred. :D
Even if only on paper, we do pick up a full ride to use.
Needs:
1.LB
2. DT
3. OL
4. Best athletes regardless of position.
Difference makers always the top priority.

What Gilmore and the staff are able to pull off for the second wave of signings will be telling imo. Losing one guy in the midst of a staff turnover is to be expected. Unless he's Jerry Rice I trust Lehigh's history of producing/find WR's.

He must infuse talent along the DL and LB. I'll trade one stud WR for a Cam Rohr or Nick Wheeler along the DL. Does Gilmore have any history with transfers at HC? I've always been pro transfer, within reason. Ala Moorhead....

Spring Practice will be fascinating. Other than Allen RB and the WR rotations all spots would appear to be open? Legit competition?!?

Short staff on the road . other than Ford not much to report.
Question : I wonder what D scheme we'll have or what O scheme really.

This is the first year for early signing in football. What is left out there?

I know the cream is typically picked off in the early signing period in other sports but could football be a bit different? Should we be looking for those who were expecting an FBS offer that didn't come through?
