Bone has a comment from CM on Rumph leaving. Is it something more than his tweet?

It'd suck to lose em, but if they don't wanna play for Bama/Saban, I don't know what to tell them other than go somewhere else. I think we keep both personally.

He's still committed but he's thinking about everything and will talk it over with his family.

More than likely gone IMO

If we can bring in Evans, then that would make up for it. But still, this sucks.

IDK where all the optimism over Evans is coming from (not talking about your post)

If he was already wavering, we're probably screwed.

Christian was one who said he was "100%".

Which usually isn't good.

Maybe if we can make a quick hire and send that guy on the first plane to South Carolina, we can salvage this. I'm going to be majorly butthurt if we lose Christian Miller.

Same. Miller looks to be so legit. He'd be a beast for us.

These kids will feel a betrayal though. Whoever we hire better be a great communicator because he'll need to connect fast.

We could be losing Christian Miller and Mehki Brown. I'm not too happy about this move. It couldn't wait till after NSD?

Let's hope whoever we get can salvage some of this.

It's not so much about the new hire since it won't be his position coach anyway.

I've never understood committing to a program and freaking out when a coach (who won't coach your position) leaves.

Recruiting is largely about relationships

It certainly is, but you commit to a program not an assistant. These kids need to grow up a little in that regard. It doesn't make much sense to say you are committed to Program A and Coach Smith for nearly a year (who won't coach your position) but when Coach Smith leaves you are going to play for Coach Jones at Program B.
