Can’t Imagine this publicity hurts but any big targets still available this momentum helps with?

Lot of smoke about Raiola being a pariah. I keep hearing that Nebraska people aren’t sad about him leaving.

Leavett would be a good hit…BUT I HATE the way he left ASU and no showed the end of the year for the team. Team captain and ditched the team late after the injury.

Leavitt has visited multiple schools and left without committing….makes me think he’s fishing for the biggest offer. either that, or his injury is worse than people think.

That’s the thing. I love Leavett as a player. My daughter goes to Arizona State and word on campus was he just ghosted everyone and then no showed the year end team dinner as a captain. EVEN if you are working a deal for yourself, have some common sense in how you treat the people you’ve played with and fought with making the CFP the year prior. He really vibes for the money only, which worries me for any team.

My first choice in portal was Sorsby who I moved ahead of Leavitt due to concerns about his being injury prone. Raiola has some talent but I would pass on him in that he appears to be an ingrate and the last thing we need is turmoil.

If we don’t get Leavitt, my choice was the local kid UWF’s Marcus Stokes. Stokes has very similar ability to that of Trinidad Chambliss who played at Ferris State. He is threat as a passer and a formidable bruising rusher. Unfortunately, we’re too late on Stokes who has signed with Memphis. I predict Stokes will be an All-American QB next year. This past year, he scored 40 touchdowns at UWF. Stokes attended Nease HS in St. Augustine, same HS as Tebow. He was four star prospect and signed with Florida. Due to a verbal impropriety on a video, his Florida scholarship was withdrawn, he and wound up at Division II University of West Florida here in Pensacola. His behavior at UWF has been exemplary. Stokes is as good as Chambliss.

Honestly, I’m not sure it matters these days…kids will go where they get the biggest bag, follow their coach who leaves, etc…I don’t want Leavitt…shows a lack of leadership and selfishness.

Who else is there?

I heard similar rumors about Leavitt. The word is he’s not a good locker room guy.
