2024 Recruiting: Liam McNeeley, the Second of His Name, 2.0

[HooperScooper]

Okay back to the important stuff.

What did they serve Liam for breakfast, did he enjoy it, who did he follow in IG overnight and what’s on today’s itinerary….

What were the snacks in his hotel room? They need to make chocolate lollipops in the form of the national championship trophy. Those would see like hotcakes in the market.

If they're friends on MySpace ... you are oooolllllddd.

If Jonathan XV is in her top 8 and vise versa, it's a lock.

No news is not good news. I hope Liam is not playing us for a better NIL offer elsewhere.

Do we think signing a home and home with Texas a recruiting strategy here?

No.

 

[bikerburt]

Who knows? Certainly a positive! Given the level of strategizing and obsessive planning by coaches a
possiblity.

 

[KemBuckets21]

The visit seems like it's been pretty quiet.

Not likely, but maybe how they are spinning it now? IIRC, the Houston Home and Home that started when Jake was a senior was mentioned as getting him a chance to play in front of hometown fans, but I'm sure that was set up long after Jake was recruited.

Do we think this is a bad thing?

It doesn't hurt. Usually done for players a couple years in, I doubt this came together in a day though, they had to be discussing this well before McNeeley was a real possibility

 

[KemBuckets21]

Do we think this is a bad thing?

No, I thought I remember a bunch of pictures posted to IG and Twitter while Flagg was here. Perhaps it was after he left and I'm misremembering.

 

[jibsey]

Do we think this is a bad thing?

No just nerve wracking a bit because of the major difference it would make. If he and Alex are on the roster, 7 is a much more real possibility. With him alone here I don’t know, and with both gone……

Yeah I am thinking the same thing. Either that's really good or really bad. Where are the pictures from the photo shoots we usually get?? Nothing on Storrs Central either other than a mention of the timing of the announcement of the home and home series with Texas not being totally coincidental. But even then, does that mean we're desperate and trying to get him over the hump, or was it just a sweetener to throw in before he signs on his way out?

Home and homes takes months to put together

 

[StllH8L8ner]

I keep hyperventilating every time I get a Bleacher Report alert since I really only get alerts about a few teams from there including when recruits commit.

Official visits are always bad until they're good.

Doesn’t mean anything yet, but…

Could be a good thing. That’s he’s not on social media the entire time. Hurley has said seemingly dozens of times now he hates when recruits are playing with their phones.

Commitment Day

He's dropped in the rankings according to that screenshot. If that's not a sign he's coming here then I don't know what is.

 

[JAdams4Reel]

Liam just started following Cling Kong.

 

[DisabledVet]

What happened with the first thread ?

Phew! Threads on this site change faster that a duck on a June bug.

Obviously, the home and home were not scheduled with McNeeley in mind, but the timing of the announcement is what apparently was strategic.
