No inside info, but by my calculations we had a scholarship available for Jacquez before Weaver changed his mind. I'm thinking if there is a JUCO OL still out there that is a fit, it could actually provide an upgrade in terms of immediate help. It's the exception for a true FR to play at OL.

Jacquez has moved his recruiting efforts here:
It is the twitter for a service that is promoting a bunch of unsigned FL recruits.


Makes me wonder if our offer is still on the table.

Don't know about that, but what it does say is that we weren't very high on his list to begin with. Hope we are not involved with him any more, if we are his 3rd or 4th fall back choice.

He had been trying to get Taggert to watch his video for days. He had other G5 offers besides us. Kid just needs a reality check. Personally, I would give him a few more days to come to his senses. Kid has talent, and while I don't know if he is actually a Liberty fit, unlike some we have had in the past, he at least nows how to tweet like one.

Now your getting it . He missed his chance. Maybe we circle back but i doubt it. We will have to find a rb and ol or dl via juco already.

I thinj they couldnt risk not signing a qh and he waited too long.

Pretty sure we have at least 3 schollies.
I really don't think there is a JUCU RB out there that can help us. OL would be the priority for sure. We missed out on "Juice" but we still signed 6 DL. Carter is just a special athlete who could do a lot of things for us in the short term and might develop into a legit QB.

You may be right on Carter, but if Davis was that easily influenced (by a guy he only knew from a couple of days hanging out on his LU visit and some social media interactions) it's better he is going to ODU. Personally, I doubt it.

So, either Carter continues to be totally delusional in settling for nothing less than a P5 offer, or ALL of his other options have disappeared for some reason. If a player has talent, that usually means academics, or some other significant off field issue. This has JUCO written all over it.

I can just picture this kid tweeting his commitment with one hand and holding his nose with the other. If he actually wanted to go to UMass, he would have signed a NLI 3 weeks ago. He didn't even visit there. He will be very fortunate if their offer is still good. Offers and verbals don't mean a lot before signing day. They mean even less after. If he ends up at UMass, it looks like we will see him Nov. 3.

I don't think he had any other options. It's pretty clear we withdrew our offer. It may have been partly because we signed Robinson, but I also suspect something came up during his visit that led us to believe he would not be a good fit at Liberty.
