This is interesting because the Griz were in on him before he picked WSU

Maybe a win locks Sevy in or maybe not, but sounds like he was impressed and had a good timePaytonlives said:https://twitter.com/KaiSevy/status/1583183297173069824
BDizzle said:Jaylen Hall seems to be still putting his name out there. Used to retweet everything Griz but not very much anymore. He may be a verbal commit right now but I wonder if that will stick.
Why do we think that is? We barely had anyone transfer out last year. What’s the difference this year?grizfan1984 said:BDizzle said:Jaylen Hall seems to be still putting his name out there.

Was thinking the same thing I only see one guy that has Montana grizzly football in their headline the others just have a pinned tweet, I’m gonna guess we go after a bunch of transfers and I’ve been hearing rumors of several guys wanting to transfer out but nothing solid we should be bringing in quite a few recruits next year but we’ll see

Could be his size...he will definitely play college ball somewhere.
Maybe. While we're at it, updating our approach to offense might be helpful, too.grizatwork said:Just an observation I have on recruiting styles. I know a kid who will probably play at least fcs level. He is currently a junior. 6'5" 260plus pounds and very athletic. He has no affiliation to either school. Parents went to school out of state. He was totally open minded about either school. Probably going into education so he could do either school. 3 days ago he received 9 hand written letters from MSU football staff. Nothing from the griz. Told me he the griz are now going to have to play catch up.
My opinion is recruiting needs to match the generation you are recruiting. This is social media generation that likes instant feedback (think "likes", "retweets", etc). He is already leaning cats because he feels that instant feedback and instant gratification. I think generationally it is pretty shallow thinking, but it is the generation you are recruiting. My wife has been doing her job for 30 years and is a supervisor. Her boss is making her take a class about communicating with this generation because her two new hires are like that. She has learned a ton. It is about meeting them at a place that they will listen to you. I think recruiting is the same way. I don't know what our philosophy is as I don't have any insider information. All I have is the example of this one kid. Maybe we need to update our approach?

]Booby still thinks it is like last time he was here and the best just went to UM without much recruiting...wrong. Now he is losing the state in kids that don't already have a UM allegiance like never before. Of course he can get a Gurnsey , AH Yat, Buehler etc. And to top it off most kids today don't want the mind games he plays, or that his assistants play. All he needs to do is look at MSU, they have it figured out.grizturd said:kemajic said:Maybe. While we're at it, updating our approach to offense might be helpful, too.
Spot on. We seem stale and outdated.

This coaching staff has talked about really going after players in the portal. I believe we will see more transfers when the time comes.

This will result in extended mediocrity. Look at teams that build their identity off JUCO transfers...there are dozens in FBS and ALL are mediocre...

Really? It's worked pretty good so far... look where we were at before Hauck and his first year here? We are light years better now and from this method...
