They were quoting Kornblut, and he said exactly that. Whether or not you agree with him is a different issue.

They're just venting.

Wish him luck and move on.

According to a Sunday night source reported by Kornblut.

According to a Sunday night article, Kornblut has a good source that says we have a 60% chance each to get Moore and Bryant....Lyons sticks with FSU....and Yannick is not coming to USC. If this comes true, that means we closed with Rodgers, Blue, Walton, Moore and Bryant. This could be an absolutely fabulous close. Congrats to our coaches for all their hard work and effort no matter what happens in these last 3 days.

Carl Lawson reaffirmed his commitment to Auburn....haven't heard anything about Foster.

Korn saying we have no shot

Good luck to him... Time to move on

[garnet_black215]

Wish we could get him, but if that's accurate, time to move on.

Hope we finish with Bryant and Moore. That would still be a solid way to close.

I saw that too but its down between Miami and FSU.

And it was far from a done deal for him to come here, like some have said on here. We had a really good in home visit and Bryant had seriously considered coming to SC but doesnt seem like thats going to happen.

Blue is a 2014 guy. Wouldn't say we've closed w him, but he'll stay committed.

What's the source on that one? Did Bryant put that out there or just a 'source'? A friend of mine texted that to me last night but said it was based on multiple re-tweets in his feed.

The reason I ask is that I think a lot of people are just making it up as they go now.

I don't buy Kornblut's post last night either - 60% chance for Moore and Bryant? It's not a lottery.

I don't see us landing Bryant but I'm not going to give up hope until something from him directly comes out, likely on Wednesday.

[GarnetArmy07]

It's an FSU/USC battle.

[garnet_black215]

Really hope we're able to pull this one off.

Bryant said he was going to "shock the world"....that probably means he's going to choose whoever he has been more solid to the entire time....

No one is attacking him. All I ever said is that I prefer guys that have competing for championships in college as a higher priority. If he is cool with hanging with his friends wininng no more than 7 games a year and then going to the NFL, than fine, see ya.

The published comment was,

Bryant said. "I'll air it out on Wednesday. Everybody is going to be shocked with how I'm going to do it."

Emphasis on the "how" to me indicates he will be creative in announcing his televised choice, not necessarily creative in which school he picks. If the experts say 60% chance he will choose the Gamecocks, I will be cautiously optimistic. Regardless, this class is closing well.

Lots of conflicting info fight now. 247 sites saying he's down to Miami and FSU.
