Any chance if landing Greg Bryant, or is he SEC bound?

I'm not upset by this, but if Olsen dropped his commitment, I'd be suicidal...

Maybe I have my canes goggles on but I actually respect this a lot. Ppl complain cause he seemed like a soft commit so he is taking a neutral stance to take all his visits then decide. He did our staff a favor by not stringing us along till NSD then flipping. We can now recruit other RB and still work on him. It's not over. I think shows he is more muture than most kids who just play the recruiting game. He is trying to be honest with our staff. You have to respect that.

Best Wishes to the young man. Running backs come a dime a dozen. Go after great D linemen and O linemen. That what matters the most.

I completely agree. He was looking and so we're looking now too, and its all out in the open. Hopefully both parties can find the best fit for them. Would love to see him as a cane but I wish him the best no matter where he goes.

It's not like we all didn't see the writing on the wall! From him wearing the FSU gloves to attending FSU an Wisconsin events, at the end of the day, he's not sold on what coach Golden is doing at the U and that's ok! I wish the kid well and have a little but more respect him as he at least decommited before national signing day. This gives us time to go out and recruit other running backs who want to be apart of what Golden is building!

Alwx Collins can be the featured back at Miami with Duke or got to FSU with a loaded backfield like Wilder, Freeman, Pender, Green and Yearby but good luck to him. []__[]

I doubt that he's gonna pick Miami. I just don't get these FL recruits. He has an opportunity to come in Miami and play but i think he wants a full time job not to split carries that's why he'll wind up at Wisconsin. He knows we have Duke n he's here to stay. And im kinda glad he's not coming because i wanna see S. Michel be our next RB. We can take someone briefly to fill the roster.

Well this what I was waiting for, if he was all about UM he would not have decommitted... Money money money baggggsss!! I really don't understand a kid like this, all the opportunity in the world to play right here at home he's still debating ARE YOU SERIOUS!!! I really wish AG pulls the offer and move on to the next one, it might sound crazy but this kid isn't all about UM... Why would UM stay hanging alone, he's gone!!
