Interesting

Talk about a big pull. Shemar James and Harold Perkins would be pretty dang good.

If you watched Perkins' interview, it was clear he is going to the highest bidder. Not sure Florida wants to ante up enough cash to pull him.

He was in town all weekend and coaching staff is visiting his uncle today.

^sounds like sour grapes to me. When asked about Texas he mentions NIL. And it sounds like they offer the most money of any school. NIL is major factor but these kids still consider other things as well.

He also mentions in another interview he was happy to know the two LSU staff members at florida now. So he has familiarity.

You are free to draw your own conclusions. He mentioned how much money he could make or was being offered at more than one school who was recruiting him. I'm not criticizing him, just stating that it was clear to me that money was a driving force in where he ultimately signs.

We're not talking about NIL. This is a cash recruitment

Stop talking about things you know nothing about.

He had a nice visit. He's still committed to A&M. He'll go chill in Hawaii for a week and be back in time to meet with the A&M staff one last time before he signs.

What? Harold's quote, "Its the NIL down there. It's Austin. You can make money off your name easy." when talking about what he likes about Texas.

You said he was going to highest bidder and now its just a driving force lol way to walk it back there

I think the kid likes the Florida coaching staff and that's why he is reconsidering. Probably stays with A&M though.

I'm not walking anything back, kid is looking for the best payday. My statements are not inconsistent at all.

Fair enough. Kid definitely wants the money. I agree with you there. That would seem to hurt Florida’s chances

He just means that A&M is still doing under the table deals in the NIL era, so even if we offer the most NIL it still isn't the largest total compensation package.

Ask Dindy's dad for the proof

Perkins is a hard one to get a read on.

He did say he always wanted to go to florida.

Who is the other lsu coach at florida besides raymond?

Just read the last few articles on 247 posted about him.

Would be awesome to pull guys from Bama, Georgia, and A&M

You mean the same cookie cutter articles that have been written after every visit hes taken because Fong has a relationship with his uncle who is an active part of his recruitment? Ok
