Around these parts, it’s usually it’s whether a coach is going to be gone or if he’s ok …
The rumor mills are going to be full tilt with players and NLI, poaching, etc. And they’ll be non stop. Guesses will be merely that, for the most part. Lots of people are going to hear lots of things. I’m talking beyond media and in the know fans … As a caution, some will be intentionally planted false info … you know, games played to drive up value. There’s going to be a ton of disinformation with heavy intention. And there will be some truths. And I think it’s going to be very difficult to figure out which is which …. So I’m not hanging my hat on crap right now because I can’t be sure. With typical recruiting, not saying it’s easy … but it’s certainly easier. With NLI … whole different ballgame.
As you might expect … word is heavy, heavy money offered to our best player. But maybe it’s not and it’ll be used to show a supreme loyalty. Or maybe it drives up what UNLV might need to keep (we lost Maiava bat way) …. Maybe it’s real and we can’t match. I don’t trust a lot of the info - it’s not that I don’t trust the people I’m getting info from, I do, they’ve been rock solid. But the actual info could be erroneous from the start. Usually with recruiting, I get far more details and am able to verify to be sure it’s the best info I can get. With NLI, it’s just totally different.
