I am starting to think we get Molasses Warren. From the same source that made me think we'd get Benning (years of understanding how recruiting goes and logic).
I think what is going to happen is the following:
1. As a result of Jambo Jambo (not racist!!! it's "hi" in swahili) visiting UT this weekend, the fan fervor for Warren will be totally drowned out by the fan fervor for Jambo Jambo.
2. Warren will feel like a second class citizen to Jambo Jambo at UT.
3. On the heels of that bitter taste (and don't kid yourself kid, it will be a bitter taste because these kids don't like other people getting attention), Warren will take his visit to UW next weekend.
4. On that weekend, Pete will do what he has done with everyone and their parents: blow them the fuck away. Pete will have been consistent throughout the recruiting process and come across as honest. His development record speaks for itself and Warren sees immediate playing time.
5. Warren's parents will love it and Warren will leave SEA with a few days to make a decision, stick it to all the UT people that have cast him off as second fiddle and go to a place where he feels wanted and valued.
Now, I think THIS ENTIRE SCENARIO is only about... say... 81% likely to happen. But I do think it's very possible and before the Jambo Jambo visit, I din't think it was going to happen.
The real GAUL DERN truth is that CCCP should have a La Marzocco follow him around because that dude closes the deal. He's closed every last recruit he had a legit shot to close. Warren is a stiff test, but there's a reason why we're #2 and Okie State and "Raider Rash" Tech got bumped.
I feel positive and I didn't before. We'll see.
