almaman Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 November dream, 8th Gordon signs, then WG starts their undefeated season defending their title with Gordon averaging a double double making all-American team and going back to top 10 in all those stupid ranking services. Then he hits the books till starting for us the following November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVBilliken Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 For someone in the know.......what is Gordon's qualifying status? Is he at risk or not? Have no idea what kind of student he is, if he has sat for the SAT or ACT, has an adequate scoreslready, etc. Sure Ford and staff are guiding him on this.

The drama won't end until he registers and walks on campus. We still may have another year of this. With that said, its the nature of the beast. This practice is not just a UMC thing, it happens everywhere. It's the cost of doing business in a very dirty industry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of an instance where a kid has gotten out of his NLI while the coach that recruited him was still there. Even Mitchell Robinson is ending up at WKU and Gordon is way less messy of a recruitment than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different types of schools, conferences, geography, and demographics. Maybe dudes never been to Wyoming and he wants to check it out. Flying Dutchmen are pretty close to home as is SHU. PS Flying Dutchmen is an unofficial mascot the schools official mascot is "The Pride". Made official in 2004 it features 2 lions named after the school's founders. Lame, Flying Dutchmen is much better. PPS Pretty sure Coach T. Ford will wrap him up on 9/10 and this guy's just going on a sight seeing trip.
