RE: Football Recruiting: 2019
Signing periods done for 2019 right? Unpin and make room in pinned area for 2020 and 2021 threads that will probably start getting more commentary?

Disregard. Final date is April 1. Carry on.

Technically open until 1 APR, but major activity has most likely passed.

RE: Football Recruiting: 2019
I started lurking around. So 247 is Evan Watkins for us right? He's VT's guy but he appears to help with us but nothing from him after August for us. Did he go dark on us after the L?

I know it was debated chicken and egg. But 247 is pretty much useless if you don't have a beat person keeping tabs. Do they respond to subscribers or is Evan a volunteer?

RE: Football Recruiting: 2019
Someone's updating the 2020 offers page; I assume it's EW. I checked after posting offers and one or two from today had already been added.

And I guess in a world driven by clicks, unless we are all willing to swing by 247 2X/day and tell him how much we appreciate (or conversely, miss) his coverage, this is all we'll get.

Every time we got a commitment last season and the commit's page didn't get updated within a few days, I would tag him in a subtweet and it would suddenly be fixed within the next hour.

While he may not be covering us, he is updating our page.

I posted on the 247 ODU board to ask. My post is under review.03-lmfao

I ran across this young man on Twitter and forgot about his walk-on commitment. But I ended up googling him and found his combine numbers from a Rivals event in Charlotte. Looks like they found another potential steal (as long as he puts in the work);

Pretty bad vertical for a WR. Also, you can never rely on 40 times.

He's also an 18 y/o walk-on from a tiny town. Give him a workout regimen and diet for the first time in his life and the burst will only improve.

And since he will definitely redshirt, he's got a ton of time to do it.

Not sure if he's 19 or 2020, but seems very strange. Rivals has him with offers from V.T Boston College and Kent among others, but he picks us as a preferred walk on?

Last two offers (which I didn't see listed on either service) were Elon and Campbell last May. VT should have had a lock on a Landstown kid; I'd wager there is a reason they let him slip through.

RE: Football Recruiting: 2019
Found this dated Feb 6. Pilot article.
Landstown coach Tommy Reamon received a call from Virginia Union two hours before the school’s signing day celebration.

Reamon was asked about defensive back Jalen Jennings, so the coach pulled the North Carolina Wesleyan commit from class to give him the news. Jennings quickly flipped.
and now is a PWO with us.

Decent ratings. 3star .8333 on 247. 2 star 5.3 on rivals.

Huge news. He will keep defenses honest and not focus solely on our run game. Great recruiting by Coach Allen and the rest of the staff.
