'07 FL S Major Wright (Florida signee)

[BuckeyeTillIDie]

It was a simple question. A couple posters answered like normal people.

Of course, I'm not surprised by your typical response.


edit: lets steer this thread back to Wright, I'll try not to ask anymore questions

Folks, we've barely had to split any garbage off today...something I am pretty proud of considering the Chernobyl-like meltdown going on in other circles. So let's get this thread back on the discussion of Major.

For future reference, rarely does something get past the entire BPRT for an extended period of time like a new offer or new commitment. Like my boy Mili said, if the thread title still says "Official Offer" you can trust that the player has not committed anywhere yet.

OT: I saw an HBO Documentary on that and boy was that depressing.

True - but it wasn't like Chernyobl U was going to play for the NC any time soon whatever happened. We have much more at stake.

I for one thought that I just wasn't inside your PM clique... was that too much? I'll stop now.

I guess it is safe to say JT and the boyz will be hard on Wright after all the others slipped through our hands? A nice little in-home right after winning a NC may do the trick!!

How did Major play today?

[wadc45]

I for one liked what little I saw...very aggressive . Obviously will need some time at the next level learning the game but has the tools.

I just split off some garbage from this thread after I specifically asked that we not go down that road with the bickering and infighting. Next time dings are going to be handed out.

All i heard from Major today was when he broke up the pass in the endzone that would have gone for a TD. But all signs point to him being a great safety, as nothing but glowing remarks about his coverage skills from the practices as well.

I think I may have heard the announcers say somehting along of the lines of him being a Jack Tatum-type safety. Hopefully a little forshadowing going on here .

[HabaneroBuck]

Yeah, the announcer mentioned Jack Tatum after a pass break-up, and it was also mentioned that Cris Carter helps coach him at St. Aquinas. They further said that his coach considers him possibly the best athlete to come out of that program, which includes Michael Irvin and, as we know, Nate Salley.

References to Tatum and Carter in one stream of comments. That can't be bad.

[A-Dub]

I want this guy to be a Buckeye more than anyone! He would be the new Jack Tatum.

does the loss to Florida push him towards them now?

[Roll Red Roll]

I'd have to say probably. Add to the fact that we went 0-3 on Saturday.

I'm not going to try to figure out the thought processes of an 18-year old kid, but why would last night's game matter any more than, say, the 1969 Rose Bowl? The championship game is now history, and Major won't be able to celebrate the win if he selects Florida, or be burdened with the loss if he selects Ohio State. It's all about going forward.
