Lil’ Nigella was one of the fortunate few that got their acceptance three weeks ago. Nothing more than good luck of being in the batch they actually processed. We have gotten over our shock and have been continuously asking each other “Can you believe that happened?” We are very proud and excited. She is waiting on a few more schools just to see how she feels. She has a spot in SRD so she is set for housing.

2024 Youth Baseball - Every Kid’s a future MLB HOFer!!!
Nigel Tufnel replied to BrazilHorn's topic in Baseball
Our default was always to swing a bat thats weight is evenly distributed. At a young age they really can’t go wrong with that. They are too young to worry about end weighted, etc. CATs are end weighted (what big power hitters swing). A one or two piece evenly distributed aluminum works for almost every younger kid. -
Seems like he should be further along by now. Always at the beginning of the book.

A QTIP Martial Trust solves many of the step parent/step sibling issues. But (big “but”) you have to get the parent to do the planning.

Jay Rogers, current NFL coach and son of the University of Texas Recruiting Coordinator at the time, Randy Rogers was two years ahead of Brees. Westlake was undefeated with Brees as a Jr., then he hurt his knee and they lost their only game of the season without him. His senior year, they won state. -

Nyck Harbor is just about in a league of his own. He is a freak athlete among freak athletes. I’ve talked about this a bit in the Recruiting forum but there is definitely a “system” in place and it can be a crap shoot whether or not you are invited in. For just about every player it is a 50/50 prop as to their hit rate in college. We get wrapped up in the 4* and 5* that we forget that they are all pretty much 50/50. That being said, Lil’ Nigel (5’ 11 3/4” 170 lbs) ran 10.4 in high school, owns basically every receiving record at his 50+ year old 6A Houston high school, was 1st team all district for 3 years in football (18 offers), 2 time all district in baseball (5 offers), and district champ in LJ (24’), 100m, and 200m. He was basically ignored by several of the writers people follow on here. He even wrote a couple of them asking if they could actually rate him, but he couldn’t even get that. I had one of these guys joked with me about telling one of his crew not to bother sending him video of defensive ends if they were white. So, yeah, I get tickled when fans give immediate credence to the services like they are the experts. What the schools want more than anything are mature bodies that are ready to play now. We see most of these kids and we joke that they look like they are 30 years old, yep, that is what schools want.

Not same level, but Butch Davis leaving the University Miami for the Cleveland Browns is best I can remember off the cuff. -

Actually he did, your are correct. But only after it had been lied about publicly. By all accounts he is a good kid and team player. Should end up in Miami.
