Don't think Burton announces until 10pm tonight on ESPN network coverage

That's what I thought. Not sure why Kevin and Mike said that.

Huh! The article I posted from today quotes him saying Cats are possible.

Calvin is all over the place. Nobody knows where he is going some people think OK State, but he doesn't talk enough to know for sure.

Hope you're right! Victor announcing with Chacho so maybe they're a package deal? Think Victor might prefer Cal due to the offer being as QB but who knows.
If they are a package deal and Vic wants to play QB, that could be a bad sign.
IF (a big if, obviously, as we don't know) they are a package deal, why not offer Vic as a QB? If he wants to come in and compete for the starting job (against Anu, Tate and Burmeister, etc) let him. My guess is he would ditch that thought process within a year and you'd end up with both Victor and Chacho.

So Josh Allen has been making up offers he's received? That's what I heard on 1290 today. Not that many options for him?

Getting an offer from the Green Bay Packers was a dead giveaway.

Could someone explain to me why they have to FAX instead of scanning and sending via email? What's the difference?

NCAA allows both, along with snail mail, so not sure why they are still used by almost all schools.

AD's fax machine is only used on signing days.

Tall and fast receiver. JJ Allen is the cornerstone and the Edge caller of the 4-2-5. Good things.

Josh Allen just committed to Arizona. Finally the flake made up his mind. As much trouble as he was I sure hope he's the beast they've made him out to be.

New WR commit Shawn Poindexter a (2) star. Caught 47 passes for 727 yards and 7 scores. Had offers from Marshall, UAB and S. Dakota St. 2 years to play two. Wants to appeal for more years. Had Decided to play volleyball out of HS. Then went to Glendale CC when that didn't work out. That was a surprise.

So, clearly with the way it went down, Poindexter was a backup plan, which means one of the other WR's on the board must have made it clear that we were eliminated. Cooper? Burton?

K'Von Wallace is my guess. Staff was on him for awhile than he blew up and released a top 5 with Arizona not on it

If Burton would have been seriously considering us he would have had an official last weekend, but he decided to see UCLA and that is where everyone expects him to land.

When I first saw that I assumed it was a re-tweet of something MattyD created... But I don't think so.

Why would he tweet that out, considering his brother plays her, unless....

It is clear these kids love all the attention, but that's a silly thing to tweet if he is not coming her, or at least seriously considering it. We'll know soon.

We never had a shot. Didn't even make his announcement paint ball video. Yes I actually just wrote that, I really hate college football recruiting.

nothing against him but kid better make the league. after announcing through that video and on ESPN he thinks he's big time before he's even played a snap.. hopefully that's not all he's known for and actually does well.

He is not the only one to do a video like this, this recruiting season alone Lamar Jackson, Damian Alloway, and Nigel Knott off the top of my head have done these. I am sure it is as much Bleacher Report coming up with the idea and pitching it to the kids as it is anything. I wish Burton all the best, he sure would have looked great with the Block A but can't fault his decision.

I think he would be a strong pick up for us given his size and percieved athletic ability. To take a guy from Michigan who got a late MSU offer would be big though on the flip side we are competing with Miami of Ohio.
