ACE Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 "Another interesting trend with Missouri is how many of their commitments in 2017 and 2018 were previously committed elsewhere." That's something to be proud of... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierPal Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 This is an unbelievably bad message for the youth of this country. Martin is encouraging kids to back out of promises they have made. Who would want this man to 'guide' their son through the formative years of college. No way for me. I prefer someone with integrity, not someone who encourages kids to go back on their word. Another interesting trend with Missouri is how many of their commitments in 2017 and 2018 were previously committed elsewhere. Watson had initially pledged to Ohio State and of the seven players to commit to Missouri since Martin was hired, six were committed elsewhere before choosing the Tigers.

101 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Martin is doing nothing wrong. In fact, almost every other team besides SLU would like their HC to be so aggressive on the recruiting trail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough, Travis Ford didn't finish his eligibility in college with the coach he committed to out of high school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're telling me Ford is not trying to flip Watson right now? Come on. These guys are free agents until they sign the paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnbj14 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Until we hear something from Gordon himself, let's all take a deep breath and calm down. Not bashing credibility but the only real places this info has come from are sources with a black and yellow slant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys wanted to play with the big boys. Now you finally get someone who can recruit a little and you ***** about the rules. You better get used to it because most good players from STL don't want to play St. Bonaventure and the rest of the A 10. They want P5 exposure. That's just a fact of life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not breaking the rules. That's following the rules. Verbal commits mean dick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's definitely continue to discuss hypothetical situations in which neither one of us will have concrete proof. Sounds fun. Mizzou has and will always disappoint. For example, this past Saturday. I'm confident this too shall pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
