Respectful and civil discussion of Delaware Football
Forum rules
1. Be respectful of our online community and contribute to an engaging conversation. We reserve the right to ban impersonators and remove comments that contain personal attacks, threats, or profanity, or are flat-out offensive.
2. Stay on topic. If you feel you really have something to add that doesn’t quite fit the current topic, start a new one.
3. Keep rebuttals and disagreements impersonal. You can disagree with someone respectfully without resorting to name-calling or other insults.
4. Do not single out players for criticism by name, number or position. These are 18-23 year-old kids that are trying their best while juggling a college class load. Let’s be supportive.
5. Remember always that players read these boards; players’ families read these boards; respective recruits read these boards; opposing fans read these boards. As a GoHens.net member, YOU represent Delaware Football to others. Please do so in a positive manner.
FYI- I believe Fin answered the "query" pretty clearly though to clarify-If he is as good as his video, then why the lack of offers? I'll let your imagination continue towards an inference. BTW- I'm pleased we got him and hope he has a wonderful career here-
Welcome to Blue Hen Country my man! bust lots of moves to the House
You are a piece of work.
1. Your query was “why did he choose us” that was prefaced by your description of his positive attributes. The inference is that it sounds blatantly negative.
2. You had no idea prior to fin’s post how many offers he received but needed his comment to try to recover.
3. Why no more offers? Perhaps we established a relationship early and he knew he wanted to come to UD and ended his recruitment. Perhaps he flew under the radar. I could add numerous other positive possibilities.
Once again you make a statement and once a comment is made you have to “clarify” or backtrack on your original statement.
Certainly your m.o.
Why are you so touchy? this is a sports board dude!
I read most everything I can find on UD sports that includes the RECRUITS section on our gohens site which lists everything found on recruits and the colleges who offered them. Clarke Atlanta is another school who offered!! I've known this info since I first saw his name on the list.
As to the rest of your points- they are not worth responding to but I will attempt to educate you- see below
As an avid follower of sports myself, I am aware of the myriad issues in recruiting as are many here on the board who I respect .
1) many can be positive such as relationships with the coach(s), players, alumni, or friends/recruits who plan to sign up. Maybe experiencing a different environment or maybe immediate playing time. there are others.
2) many can be negative or concerning, such as grades, history, or previous coaches comments, etc.
Hey- I hope he loved us from the start, there were no negatives, and that's the end of the story
You are like the Wizard of Oz…condescending and a know it all until the curtain is pulled back…which is has.
I really don’t care about your lack of respect for me. This is just a message board and you’re in Tennessee. I have actual relationships with some posters.
By the way what sports and at what schools did you coach and recruit for? The basis for your overwhelming expertise must originate from somewhere.
speaking of the W of Oz, the yellow brick road is my aim for our teams- successful steps to quality sports for UD- that's all
u appear to be the Deflection Man - teflon- like
as to your queries and assertions- whatever, but thanks for your compliments about my expertise though my posts are simply my opinions.

What?
It’s hard for you to read my extreme sarcasm.
You’ve probably been watching too much FloSports.
BTW- I'm a big Track and Field fan and noticed that flosports was covering the UIL Texas hs champs from Austin. they did a great job. The Diamond league began again as a leadup to the coming Olympics- this week the Drake relays and Penn relays will begin. The Penn relays are always exciting and fun to watch. The Jamaican fans attend in great numbers and add to the flavor of this huge annual event.

How did our TEs and LBs look? Did our new transfer TEs (Witthoft and Fauria) play? How did Blake Matthews and Gavin Moul look at LB?
Based on the information provided to us by our recruiting specialists over the past week, it looks like we are looking for help or at least depth at LB. Four offers to 2024 LB transfers.
