Anyone know anything about this:

Denver Kirkland: Ole Miss is out, Miami is back in, and he received LOI's from USC and LSU today, apparently. This one is wild.

I'm not sure I've seen his name mentioned in this board before. But I'm too lazy to search

I don't believe so, would've had to be an unofficial, which you can sneak past the media.

Yes. That's why he received an LOI.

Why? He's a four star OG and Miami isn't exactly in the position to be turning away quality recruits right now without a good reason.

This.

There's been talk of a lot of immaturity displayed during his recruitment and drama, but the kid is an absolute monster.

Also, would be incredibly interesting if we did end up taking him as he and Matthew Thomas have always held firm to the notion that they are a package deal. As far as I know.

No, Quay bain is a current DT commit that also played OL in high school. But that's opposite of what you're asking.

I HIGHLY doubt we would nab a package deal the day before NSD from two players who haven't visited.

Our best chance would be if he postponed his announcement.

Also, it sounds like Miami learned the error of their ways if they are back "in", but it will be interesting if he stiffs them for what they did to him already

How common is this to send an LOI to a recruit like this that we have heard nothing about?

Per 247, scout, and yahoo their is no scholarship offer or interest.

anyone know how it works. we are in a quiet period. yet, we offer a LOI to a recruit who has not visited us. does this suggest we have been talking with him all along or can you talk to his coach and get coach to relay messages.

I'm with you. I don't think it's likely we land them either.

It's just that it would very interesting if we ended up getting Kirkland, because of how adamant the two have been about playing together.

I mean it is another storyline to follow tomorrow. If they both don't sign on a dotted line, things would get real interesting
