We could just offer his dad the oline coach position lol

Today is as good a day as any...

so any idea what our chances are at landing the freshman at Carroll?

Lets make some noise then....Clowney to IU...

Now we can wait for crystal ball predictions to flood in...

It could frost any day now....

3 years from now, our backfield is going to be STOUT.

Sadly a common theme.  

IU football will win it all the year after I pass away.  That's how my luck rolls.

we've had the snap and crackle...now for the pop.

I thought it was Francis...who knew

I have no intel but I haven’t felt this confident about someone ending up at IU since Leal.

I know IU media can get our hopes up since they cover basketball and recruiting far more than Bama/Florida/Va Tech but I just sense a very palpable difference in the way he talks about and posts about IU in comparison to the rest. He said post -visit he usually wants to go home after an official but didn’t feel that way with IU. 

also, weird move to (allegedly) be chatting with an IU staffer during your Va Tech visit saying it’s boring af and then committing potentially 4 years of your life there..

Sadly if he goes to vt,  he wouldn't be the first recruit to prefer iu but have a relative or coach sway him elsewhere.

Who tooted in our direction?

Maybe he is talking some VT players into transferring to IU lol

so any news?

I'm guessing his parents have a good sense of humor.

m&m blizzard mmmmm

you put the lime in the coke u nut and shake a bol up

That definitely seems telling unless VT has more open spots for the frontcourt.

Liking our chances even more.

So I'm guessing his weekly X-rays were negative, then? 

So that's a positive?

pretty much.

He's not Tijan's brother from another mother?

Nice that we are getting started on future classes.

Hopefully we weren't texting him during another visit. That would seem kind of in bad taste...hopefully it was him that reached out.

I think IU just texted him the following during his trip

If you had to choose, then would choose bad or awful to describe your current visit?

Are you saying his mom was holding the stopwatch?

No offense intended rico.  I'm sure you could run circles around me.

All due respect Rico, very impressive times. Though since this thread is about Tyreese,...........head to head, who wins? Young Rico in his prime or current IU football prospect Tyreese? 🤔

Apparently rico in a race but probably Tyreese in a tackling drill lol

So now that we have deduced that 11.63 is not super fast for a runner but pretty fast for a DE, what are our chances of landing this kid?

Every campus but Purdue has a couple that are easy on the eyes 

Don't sell them short

If they break out in the hokey pokey we could be in trouble. 

That may work out for us since he would turn himself around from the visit.  That's what it is all about.

Yep. William (my nephew) is basically impossible to catch in the open field. I've seen safety have the angle on him several times and he just runs right past them. He doesn't even practice his track etc. If he dedicated himself to his diet and getting out of the blocks and technique etc I could only imagine. He basically never practices his track...eats a pizza before the meet with a mt dew and runs away from most kids. If he wanted to compete at the state level he needs to dedicate himself to it but he spends all his time focusing on lifting, football, and girls lol. I do think he has a chance at a scholarship to a smaller div 2 college...he is a pretty good running back and at worst would make a good athlete (special teams etc) because he plays both sides of the ball really well. I know my sister is hoping for a scholarship...would like to save some money lol.

Time to switch his pizza to cauliflower crust and tell the girls he has herpes.
