We gotta get rid Dan Lanning and bring back Dan Helfrich, the closer. That guy was electric.

Not sure why people are down on him. He made the decision he wanted to make. It appears to be the parents that are forcing the change, not him

Latest is he is headed to Oklahoma.

Hope he made the right decision and he is good with it. I hope he does well. Very hard to berate a kid for making a decision he feels is best for his future. Sure, I wish he was a DUCK but that's the nature of recruiting.

There must be an NIL bidding war behind the scenes. Honestly that was my initial thought yesterday.
Willie Taggart is a dick.

His Mom's reaction makes me think that NIL has nothing to do with it.

Oklahoma just picked up a pretty highly regarded safety in the transfer portal today. Reggie Pearson Jr. from Texas Tech.

Opposite from me re: fam reactions. She seemed horrified when he switched, like something else was in play.

Keep in mind, I don't care. I'm a huge fan of people getting their bags.

Honestly, just seems weird that the parents were unaware of what their sons decision was going to be on the commitment video.

How can the parents / kid not be on the same page at that point?


Anyway, the family dynamic seemed off in that video so not entirely surprising...

Reading her reaction, she seemed surprised when he picked Notre Dame. Then she looked embarrassed when he switched to Oregon. That, to me, reads as she expected Oregon but didn't anticipate him doing a switcheroo.

All signs are pointing that he already signed with Oklahoma this morning.

Mom wants anyone other than Oregon. Bowen doesn’t want ND. OU is the compromise. Parents can be really strange sometimes.

Limar's Mom wanted nothing to do with him being that far away. Win some, lose some.

Have parents heard of Facetime, TV, and airplanes?

This is what I got as well, but I would add that she looked pleasantly surprised when he picked ND.

My guess is, he couldn't go back to the Irish after rejecting them, so they picked the close-to-home school.

Just a strange situation all around, reminding me of the Landon Collins and Jacob Copeland situations.
