Wow! The way our recruitment is going, I think Abe was right!

guys we really need to appreciate this. the fact that there's a point in my life that we got a 4 star and i'm not yelling and screaming says something. we need to save some of the nil to lock down khenon. we need to throw the bag at HIM at the end of this year to keep him. don't leave khenon

Not trying to throw cold water on this, but any more it's hard to get overly excited about verbal commitments - especially one this far in the future - with the way NIL era recruits de-commit and flip the minute a higher bidder shows up. At most I view this kind of thing as the recruit publicly stating we're his favorite as of today, but who knows what will happen when signing day comes.

What happens if Aranda doesn't make it past this season?

I'm thinking a major change is highly unlikely, considering the huge investment in the current support staff. It would take another catastrophic dumpster fire season. Not saying that can't happen, though.

I don't know why people feel the need to say some version of this in every recruiting thread. I think we're all aware of the reality of recruiting today.

Still a nice get as of now, and continues the program's current strong recruiting momentum.

I have never gotten excited about verbal commitments from any star athlete. I get excited about Ws for the program.

To be fair it's really no different for any other school if not one of the top 4-8 schools (4 to 8 not 4-8 like us)

Undersized right now but that film doesn't lie
