no offense. But you do not get recruiting
Well enlighten us...
If he was making an announcement in November/December, im sure there would much more coverage because there would a slim chance of him flipping that late in the process.
Dylan Raiola has committed to OSU, UGA, and now Nebraska all within an 18 month span. Shite happens...

Generally QBs commit very early in the process, not saying they don’t flip but they are the first dominos to fall. Think about low long ago Hurley committed verbally
November of 22

I hope you’re right, but de-commitment seems fairly common. That’s all.
Not with top 3-5 QBs. Raiola was the exception, not the rule.

Again, he’s a notable exception. But he also has major family ties to Nebraska. Not only did his dad play there, but he uncle is on staff there. Once they proved they wouldn’t be a total shite show after Rhule took over and they paid up, it’s not surprising that he flipped there. UGA also had another option and decided to stick with him rather than matching.
I’m just saying his situation went a lot deeper than just being the local P5 school.

The only thing I can think of was Michigan reporters were on their way to Houston with the game Monday. An announcement 50 hours before kickoff of the national title really hurt the coverage.
But if you’re On3 or 247 how do you not live stream this? How do you not hire some college stringer to get more coverage?
Insane

Nah. This is the consensus No. 1 overall recruit that has had announcement date planned for 4 months.
A recruit labeled the best in the past half decade.
Both major recruiting sites dropped the ball.

There’s really no reason for media to be at these announcements, beyond local reporters.
There’s no scoop, because everyone gets the news at the same time.
It’s just as easy, and much cheaper, to watch the video and then get him on the phone for an interview.

Because there is no emotion in reporting the news. That is why you are a fan & they are paid to report news. Maybe he re-opens his commitment, maybe he doesn’t. Maybe you will end up getting divorced, maybe you don’t. You still have the pictures taken.

That’s not all! With all the positive amazing things happening this week you miserable fricks still can’t be happy about ANY of it! So much positivity and you still find a way to negatively spin it. I fricking hate people like you.

I'm ecstatic about all the positive vibes coming from Tiger Town (even LSU's MBB win over the Aggies) and can cannot wait until next season starts; I predict they'll be 9-0 when the Gumps come to town in November.

idk he had like 15k ppl watching his IG live... how many commitments have had that many ppl watching?
Posted on 1/7/24 at 2:57 pm to Lester Earl
Bellevue is in the middle of nowhere, MI.
Maybe his announcement was more of private thing? Probably not a lot of MI media motivated to cover best QB in MI history announce he is going to an SEC school?
How big were Ewers or Sayin’s announcement parties?

That’s the point. It was never announced or reported how to watch his announcement. And it still had 15k watching. It was a big deal

Then why did Under Armor convince Harlem Berry to push back his announcement probably fly his whole family out to Orlando to announce at the UA All American game?
LEs got a good point. Just feels like an opportunity missed. Maybe the sites tried but Bryce is kinda a low key guy
