Official Class of 2020 decommitments thread

I really hope no one here thinks the Ethan Gabbars commitment will stick. He’s an idiot if he comes here sandwiched between Morris and Huard. He can blow up a Cal. He’s ranked pretty high on ESPN

Because all recruits pan out and never get hurt. Garbers has every reason to come here.

Yep...look at USC where they are now at the 3rd/4th stringer starting (and looking better than Daniels ever did) and now at Stanford where they've worked through Abbott Costello, Davis (not David) Mills, down to some old cowboy actor (Jack West) and even he's likely going to be passed over by anyone who walks on (assuming someone can qualify for their intellectual brutality requirements).

At worst Garbers can be a model teammate who then qualifies for Pete's nepotistic coaching tree.
 
I saw Sa'Vell and Hatchett remain solid but I did see that Esteen was at USC this weekend. I hope the coaches let him...

If SC makes a good coaching hire, Esteen and Jackson might both flip there.

This is why USC struggling down the stretch could actually hurt the northwest schools.

Possible but if Meyer was hired at USC, they are putting the full court press on the best available players in the country. National recruiting from his ties in the Midwest and Florida. I think they will be going after bigger names than Esteen and Jackson.

It depends on the time table. He would probably go after them for a couple of reasons.

1) The current class is very small, and will need capable bodies to fill it

2) It's a lot easier to flip high end three star guys than four and five star guys.

Why? Is there evidence that three star kids flip more frequently? Honestly, anecdotally I would think the opposite. Four and five star guys seem much more likely to flip. Obviously part of that is they are more heavily pursued, but I also think the mentality of kids who have been stars most of their young lives makes them more susceptible to the next great pitch.

And Urban's a master of that pitch.

Not saying he couldn't flip Esteen and Smith if he were at SC, don't twist. Just saying I do think he could flip more heavily pursued guys.

I'm thinking many of these kids don't have as many offers as the others.

Well yeah.

"Obviously part of that is they are more heavily pursued"
 
Sounds like Washington is not a cool place to go if you’re not winning 10 games a year. Better nut up and close out the season well.

They won’t have to flip all that many guys. They will go after the best available players after the first signing day. A lot of big recruits wait until the last second to drive up interest and secure the biggest bag.
 
Right now I expect Makell Esteen to be the next decommit. Jimmy has some work to do

Is it because lake is leaving? Or because will harris to busy coaching DB tackling techniques and not recruiting???
