Tunsil puts FSU back in the picture

  • WillyDees said...

    He knew there was no way he'd have gotten early PT over Klepal. He scurred.

    His addition of FSU was done prior to the Klepal news of yesterday.

    Well, if you are not willing to put up or shut up then you are the whiner.

    Really, not enough guts to put up or shut so you down vote. Pathetic.

    I down-voted you again, kiddo.

  • Fish said a month or two ago that when the dust settles on signing day, Tunsil will be a Nole!

    I know that is not a guarantee, but coming from someone that connected made/makes me feel good!clap

  • TNOLE, if there is one thing we all should know about recruiting is that it changes constantly and you should never speak definitively about where a kid is going until the ink is dry. Not only do you do this, you do with it with a condescending arrogance that is just immature. It's one thing to have a less than positive opinion about a situation, but you don't have to present it like such a jerk. I would think being 45 years old you would have learned by now how to be a little more diplomatic in life, especially with your fellow seminoles.

  • Ugh, just when i'd hoped everyone would get over this kid. I hope he is being real this time though. We could sure use him, but i refuse to get any sort of hope up.

  • I'm not getting any hopes up, but I never count this staff out, period. We won't know anything definitive until signing day when he inks the letter of intent to his school of choice. That's pretty much how I look at EVERY recruit.

  • Recruiting and absolutes don't mix. Tunsil is someone who doesn't have a clear favorite (e.g., childhood favorite).

    Just stop reading the "articles" and listen to the people connected. FSU has been sitting right where they have planned it for the last 6 months and we sit right where we want to now. Follow Fishbein's posts on him.

    Congrats, makes you feel like a big man does it?

    I guess I should be flattered. I don't care enough about you to exert the effort to down vote you.

    How about if he does, you permanently remove yourself from posting on Noles247?

    illinoles, I don't know your history with TNOLE27 and you may have a perfectly good reason(s) for wanting him to stop posting. IMHO my take is that many of these HS guys do like feeling the love and give mixed messages all along the way. The way we make decisions now (as professional adults) is probably much more thought out considering our professional, family and contentment goals. But so many of these teenagers who are top notch athletes (I've known a few) are just as immature as any other 18 high school kid and wants to brag to his boys about all the attention. After volunteering with At-Risk community boys for a number of years now I've been amazed by a few highly mature athletes as well as amazed by how ANY attention from a college, (athletic or academic), is a source of much-desired attention and they can't give enough of it.

    Larry Tunsil has seemed to be handling himself very well throughout this process but I was shocked when he mentioned that FSU had fallen back when the constant communication fallen off a bit recently and now, all of a sudden, he's got the Noles back in the top 3 after a personal phone call. It does sound like what someone would say when they are seeking attention. And I don't believe these guys have any idea how much it means to us as fans to hear a little good news only to find out it was disingenuous. ...just my long-winded take

    Its not the kids faults. Why do these KIDS have to take calls from media guys every single day and 100s of text messages every day asking them same dumb questions over and over and over. He is handling it right and thus another example why reading recruiting updates will not give you the real deal holyfield on that is going on. THe Noles have been right where we want to be and that has not changed.

    If he doesn't like what I post and doesn't have the emotional maturity to read my posts without getting his panties in a wad the he needs to stop reading my posts. period. THERE IS NEVER A GOOD REASON FOR ONE POSTER TO GET SO UPSET THAT HE NEEDS ANOTHER POSTER TO STOP POSTING UNLESS HE IS AT GITMO AND IS BEING FORCED TO READ THE SAME POSTS HUNDREDS OF TIMES OVER.

    Again, use the ignore button. You will stop crying and I will stop being annoyed that an FSU fan such as yourself is embarassing our fan base.

    How hard do you cry when you see someone do the chomp?
