McGuffie has been wavering since December....I think UM should cut bait and force Shaw to sign today.

Yeah it sucks M but this too shall pass. In other words, IMO shaw and mcguffie both will still end up in aa. Seems like alot of these kids have a flair for the dramatic. What's up w/Pryor? Is the delay because PSU is in on him late?

Oh there are more than that- Rivals is always slow doing that .Plus, most of the staff is en route to the Perry P.C

UM had a HUGE day, stole a bunch of recruits from other schools. Guess it's gotta be nice to have closers on staff.

Yeah..he's been flaky from the start. I think Shaw will stick, but I have a feeling McGufffie bails.

eventually, the stud WR recruits will avoid UM like the plague if they run the same offense as RR did at WVU......Pat White throwing you the ball will not get you to the league.
Bodes well for us and our pro-style offense in future recruiting battles for WR's in the state...........

All Verbals have now signed LOI
Per Rivals. 21 for 21.
That's a good thing. I'm glad to see no one backing out on their word this year like we have had in year's past.
