Duke has more clout. That’s all he cares about.
He posts a lot of Duke, UCLA, Kentucky, etc for that exact reason. Gets a lot of engagement
Tipton always had his niche as the commitment/final list edit guy. But I didn’t even follow him until recently. The players would post it, so why bother? The whole explosion and really migration of recruiting coverage to IG has been a boon for him. Now you just follow the one source and get all the commitment news basically.
The dead period has helped too. There’s a bunch of new somewhat similar accounts popping up on IG and twitter. Edits and reports of who’s reaching out, who’s recruiting who the hardest. It’s the kind of stuff that I’d roll my eyes at a year ago, but now it’s valuable information without coaches on the road to tell us what’s really going on. Those new folks will need to adjust when things get back to normal though or be left in the dust.
Example A:
Is Tipton some high school kid?
College I think. Definitely started in HS.
I think he graduated in the past few years. Early-mid 20s
Cant wait for this
Happy cake day @DFresh11! One year of LRA for you! Here’s to many more!
If I was a betting man I don’t think it’s us. If this is true, Tony would know. Maybe finding out what was initiated the 2022 action such as zooming McKneely
So now that someone put it out there Trevor 99% will not be committing today lol
I’d tend to agree, flip side is maybe Tony has known for a few days so to begin the hard push for McKneely
Thanks Big B. Love my one source for UVa sports news here and talkin shit with all yall
I also don’t think it’s us because if it was we probably wouldn’t leak this. It would super piss me off if someone ruined my surprise
FWIW, Keels did cut down his IG to only 8 posts. He’s cut it down before, but now it’s just his Top 3 post and friends / highlights. No more recruiting visit posts
So Keels has done all that he has done through the recruiting process and he’s gonna announce without setting a predetermined announcement date and making a big deal of it? Color me surprised.
I would guess that we have based on a number of things. I think we started to smell something quite a while ago with all the sudden activity with guards. Go back to when we were trying to get involved with Ingram, heated up with Warley, Murray, & Coleman. Don’t be surprised if we don’t know where Houstan is headed.
Out of the blue announcements usually go well for UVA.
The Houstan announcement could have prompted this also.
Both Keels and Houstan listed dook also. So it could be the threat of taking one of dooks spots. But I hope the news is good for us
