Re: Cyrus Kouandjio commits to the barn but he has not faxed his LOI in
Very good point. Given the profile of the DeMatha program, this is not the first recruiting rodeo for the head coach. He wants all schools treated fairly because that means they may all come back -- which is a feather in the school's cap and which means more opportunities for future players.
Re: Don't feed the troll!!!
Hmmm, unless tidesports quoted his dad incorrectly Iowa is back in it. Maybe they did. ?????? I don't have a rivals account to see if that's the case.
Re: Don't feed the troll!!!
Someone asked him that, and his response was along the lines of "His father also didn't know he was announcing for AU yesterday."
Re: Don't feed the troll!!!
So Rivals guy knows more than dad? Interesting. Is he going to try to steer him to au as well? Seems like everyone else is.
Re: Cyrus Kouandjio commits to the barn but he has not faxed his LOI in
He was right last week (even before the visit). I hope he's right again!
Re: Don't feed the troll!!!
Well tbh, I'd MUCH rather CK head to Iowa than the barn. Based off the coaches recent comments from today....shewwww..... I'm hoping he gets closed out of the loop fast the way he was talking.
I have personally reached my limit for taking barn successes for an entire decade in the last 12 months alone, beginning with last NSD and carrying through to this week. I work with them, date one, and and spend half my holidays and weekends surrounded by them and I am at critical mass. C'mon Kouandjio parents!

Cyrus, St Nick Fairly, Coach McGregor, and Brian Overstreet
A few people I know, that I respec and usually have their ducks properly rowed, feel there is some merit to this story.
I wondered myself how Nick Fairly, the potential #1 overall pick in the draft, ended up with Brian Overstreet as his agent.
Overstreet works out of Maryland.
He also has some sort of relationship with Cyrus, and perhaps the HC at De Matha as well.
Seems there are some who believe that Overstreet told AU coaches that if they sent him St Nick Fairly as a client, he could deliver them Cyrus. Make no mistake, the aubs wanted Cyrus to visit, and alone, to keep the strong family influence out of the loop.
This Head Coach McGregor seems a little too invested in this saga as well, and very anxious for Cyrus to speak and conference with aub coaches - who will lay the guilt trip on him.
BTW - Coach McGregor is involved with something called "Coach Files", which is the same type "Mentoring and PR" firm as such sleaze bags as Walt Willaims and Brian Butler oversee. For the purpose of helping young people, of course :rolleye2:

Re: Don't feed the troll!!!
Al22, the article you are talking about is the one I linked in my Youngblood tweet.
Neither is true. I took what he said as things are changing and Daddy K might not be kept up to date. Shane Youngblood covers UA, so I don't see him trying to steer Cyrus to UA.

Cyrus inching closer - Yahoo! Canada Sports
Here it is and it doesn't sound good to me. Cyrus needs to go home and get with his family. It's one thing if they guide and steer him. It's quite another if his coach does. Now it appears Cyrus hasn't even talked to Alabama coaches. Wonder why Saban's name is nowhere to be found in all these reports?

Re: Don't feed the troll!!!
Oh, I know Shane covers Alabama. I was thinking rivals guy that wrote the article was Farrell. He was the one I was speaking of.
Re: Cyrus Kouandjio commits to the barn but he has not faxed his LOI in
Does anyone else think it's fishy that the coach seems to be leaning so heavily toward AU? I mean according to that article it was AU that contacted the coach to set up the conference call. And, of course, the coach is the only person in America who wasn't 'surprised' by Cyrus's last minute commit to AU.

Re: Cyrus Kouandjio commits to the barn but he has not faxed his LOI in
It is definitely clear that Coach McGregor ISN'T talking to or keeping CK's dad in the loop. I find this very problematic.
Re: Don't feed the troll!!!
The comments about Arie calling him and holding sway make no sense. That is not what was said before Wednesday.
Re: Cyrus, St Nick Fairly, Coach McGregor, and Brian Overstreet
Mu gut reaction is that this story has merit. Maybe not to that extreme, but this coach has ulterior motives.
