It’s not like we will recruit a bunch of players better than Richardson. That’s the sad thing. We pass up the in state kid to get another scrub from down south or another version of the Maryland Adams twins who both suck bad. We dump Richardson and Grantham for out of state small time stiff players like Exree Loe, Sandwich, Adams twins, EJ Brown, Thimons, Jake Long, Sean Mahone, Hardy, Thrift, Pooler........and many more. Straight out of state leftover stiffs. Swiss cheese and pudding soft continues.

Boy Pride, if you only knew what other coaches described his playing style as, you'd go cry in a corner. You need to stop cutting up WVU players though, I'd hate to see you get banned..

Grantham couldn't even pass HS classes. How TF is he gonna do classes in college? "We aint here to play no school"

Richardson is not D1 talent. Could be a walk on or play for Mini U.

Exree Loe, is top notch player. Will be a star. Pride, you need to get your butt out of the state of WV and see a little of the world that's out there.

If he's not D1 talent, why offer him in the first place? It's not right to do this to any kid three weeks out of signing. (let alone one of our own!) I'm done with Dana's disloyalty, lack of integrity. It's all "ME" first.

I've got a huge recruiting update over on the Blue Lot. Basically though, this was West Virginia's decision. There are options and some are visiting very soon. Remember if you sign up for an annual right now you get $99 in FREE gear. Check this out: https://westvirginia.forums.rivals.com/threads/want-to-try-wvsports-com-and-get-free-gear.189355/

Options are good but I doubt Dana closes on very many of them. His recruiting style this season seems odd.

I actually think they should close on a several of them over the next two weeks. It’s definitely been a weirder cycle.

If Holgorsen thinks Richardson isn’t a Division 1 athlete, I would love to hear his excuse for offering Millard, Chugs, Crest, and some of his other failures.

Are those players THAT much better than what he already had committed? WVU isn’t Alabama where they can just snap their finger and 4 and 5 star recruits come crawling to them.

Merlin 43 knows his ****. How many low level stiff boys will Dana recruit in place of Richardson? More wasted scholarships and wasted money. Dana won’t close the deal on anybody. Just a bad move. Richardson deserved a scholarship and has the size, athletic ability to develop into some position. I guess more out of state stiffs on the way that will never play or help.

Swiss cheese continues.

He literally said nothing that you have stated before. All he said was that Dana's recruiting seemed odd. Maybe you should actually be an insider and stop pretending.

Pratt more out of state stiffs on the way. Swiss cheese continues. Why argue? I wouldn’t have a problem with it if we actually recruited more higher ratio of good out of state players but we don’t at all. 50% or more of all out of state recruits never start or play here. Look it up for the last 20 years. Half or more of out of state recruits are out of the program by 2-3 years they suck so bad.

Geeez! More Adams twins on the way. Haaaahaaaaaalolol what’s new????? Swiss cheese

Richardson wants to play wideout, WVU wanted him to play Dback. If he won't play where we need him, he needs to look elsewhere. He isn't that good.

You literally were bragging about kids from NJ, OH, MD and PA last month...and now kids from MD are out of state stiffs. You're not smart and nobody takes you serious. You'll just get yourself banned again, wont ya Uder7.....

It seems to me that if you're making $3 million to be a head football coach you ought
to have details (complete evaluation, where a kid will play, etc) worked out before you make a scholarship
offer. And then when the kid commits and stops his recruiting process the deal is done.
Pulling the Richardson scholarship offer is just another example of Dana being tone deaf and
not having the skills to be a major college football head coach. His hiring was a mistake
that just keeps on giving.

Agreed. We missed out on the Big 12 Championship Game after scoring 56 against Oklahoma and averaging the most points per game in the history of WVU Football. They don't need another wideout at this point and that's what this kid was apparently going to be.

It was what he wanted, not what the staff wanted.

Keep beating that drum, the gorillas will answer you at some point. Kid decided he didn't want to play defense. Not anybody's fault and you need to grow up.

Or we could flip a 4* DB. Fire Holgorsen

Flip*

That is a subjective word.

Don't know everything about Miller but LSU needed CBs.
Miller was flirting with other schools but Texas A&M is saying they passed on him as well.

Sounds like LSU kept him as a commit but told him to look elsewhere because his scholarship would not be available.

I think Miller has potential and don't think it because of red flags because LSU has a LB commit who is a sexual predator.

Didn't flip him, he was wanted here not there. The actual truth is they had a CB who they thought was leaving for the NFL, he decided to come back. There's only 85 scholarships. Can't take everybody.

The rumor is A&M passed on him as well.
Dont know if that is totally true but he was looking that way.

Hopefully LSU put some things in his ear about **** jars and animal husbandry so he declined and went to WV.

Well....
A&M's DB coach isn't considered the best evaluator or developer of talent so even if they passed on him it isnt a knock on WV.

LSU on the other hand is one of the best schools at evaluating DBs.
If LSU gives you an offer at CB you are legit.

What an absolutely idiotic post. Shame that Vernon allows such clap trap trash to continue on this site. What horrendous nonsense.

You are a pig for ripping on wvu players. Whatever state they are from, they are mountaineers. If you have a beef with the coach, so be it, but don’t put your racist biased hate on those players. They have nothing to do with a coache’s decision.
Take your hate somewhere else. Take a hike.

If he did this to an out of state 3 star you would still be bitching anyway.

You ought to read up on Nick Saban’s recruiting habits. He said, “Not all offers are ‘committable.’”

That is not just Saban...that is CFB.

Best example is young players who do not develop.
Meaning players who are offered as juniors or before but they get lazy or they developed way too young.
Perfect example
Can't even get into Abilene Christian
Once was a Ole miss and Florida St commit

If you think about it. There are over 100 offers for only 25 spots

It is when the offer comes.

This is another low 3 star recruit but...

All his offers came in this month.
His wasn't on anyone's radar until Michigan and USC offered him so other schools watched his video.

He could ultimately be the sleeper in 2019

They did not pass on him and were pushing hard.
