Coaches Informed before Public announcement?

What is proper etiquette for the recruits to inform the losers in the battle for the player?

---

some recruits tell coaches prior to an announcement, some dont.

I would guess that coaching staff knows LC choice before the game announcement.

---

he's said he will tell the coaches on wednesday, I think, unless its changed

Also if they are informed earlier are they obligated to keep it secret?

---

they arent really obligated, but I doubt our coaching staff is gonna call scike, shea, and gino on speed dial and inform them ASAP after LC lets them know.

It will definitely leak and the most telling signs will be the Bama reactions Wednesday Night and during the day Thursday. If they are still extremely confident and basically bragging then it's Bama. If they have gotten the word it's LSU then it will be clearly obvious by either their change in attitude or some of the most confident guys just will not be posting.

Only a few "legendary" LSU people will know either way and the guys that follow recruiting know who those guys are. It will depend on how they guard the info. It could be Kiel like where it starts to leak out and gets everyone either excited or pissed or they could keep it to themselves and make the rest of us wait until it's public.

My guess is that if it's bad news for LSU things will leak out to try to stave off the meltdown. If good news they'll keep us on edge until he announces to make the announcement and excitement more dramatic and satisfying. Just my take but really just guessing off experience and past history with things in these situations.

Or they decide to draw the schools from a hat just imagine that if you were recruiting a kid that tried that shite

But if the membership is to tigerbait then



to anything other than Mikes riveting reviews of new movies.

its fine, I know of people that spoke with collins father regularly for weeks, IRL.

Thats my biggest issue with some "sources" on here, who were basically saying they knew the same people I did but were reporting other info.

But to answer the OP, you would have to think the schools are absolutely obligated to keep it to themselves, and allow the recruit to break the news however he or she wants.

It isn't from Rivals, Mike S or any of his supporters...

Gunner Kiel informed the coaches of all teams involved before his decision was made public.

However, Tim Jernigan let Jimbo Fisher & Les Miles know where he was going at the same time he announced it to us publicly.

So there is no set procedure. Some do. Some don't. Remember, these are just kids making those decisions.

But it is certainly more considerate & classier to let the coaches know in advance of the public rejection or commitment.

What is your understanding of LC's likely decision.

quote:

How do you know this? Or better yet why do you think this?

After a while you learn to read between the lines of the people who have access to the coaches info..

"keep it on the DL"...the coaches ask...

so to keep the paid subscribers happy and honor the coaches wishes they share tidbits until they get the go ahead with the story ...they hand feed conflicting stuff to keep you guessing..but after a while you can break the code.
