On a positive note, he's been retweeting a bunch of tweets from people telling him to come to LSU. Haven't seen a single Miami tweet since he decommitted. And he just recently started following LF, J. Battle, Adams, Kenny Young, Malachi and Dupre. Is it a sign???

Well right now it seems like miami class is falling apart a bit the big fish like yearby and thomas i think will stick, but they just lost a 4 star cb nigel bethel flipped to tx tech and they lost a rb powell to uf. rumor around fl is that the kids didnt like it when golden shut everyone out when he was considering the penn state job and that uncertainty scares alot of kids who are putting their futures in his hands. But him following our commits cant hurt lol. But the rushing kid is who everyone is sleeping on dudes a beast and was beating up d1 cbs. Id take him over holland thats imo from actually watching him

He's not gonna be pass rush specialist, but I think he has more upside than a pure space eater.
After watching our line this year, I think having a one good block eater is great for our scheme against the Alabama's and Auburns and Arkansas' of our division. Having a guy like that can make a huge difference.
We know Chavis will have DE's and LB's lighter in the pants and plenty fast. A big guy can help our cause.

As an example, CRob followed and retweeted many Bama people/players/recruits, almost zero LSU. That turned out to be a correlation.

Valentine is doing the same with LSU. Last thing he mentioned about Miami was sorry for decommitting. Then retweets "Join LSU, think future, Draft Winner"
& "I hope you put on the Purple and Gold"
& "I hope you put on the Purple and Gold"

quote:just a theory- if they "swap" the groups they are following then the recruit may limit the contacts... therefore "twitter moves" like that are significant most of the time? i.e. for Valentine can be construed as a sign.

Since I'm of the opinion Valentine is pretty much going to commit to us and that the delay is because of ghost problems with transcripts for S FL players who leave the state I'm leaning towards it indeed being a sign (bias included in that)
