This was passed on to me, and while I trust the source — I trust little in the recruiting game. So, let’s not overreact but wait and see.
The report is that A.J. Alexander out of Altoona has re-re-opened his recruiting with Aubrey Hill choosing to take the Miami Hurricanes WR Coach position. That’s a little surprising since his verbal had him singling out Assistant Coach Greg Gattuso.
Keep in mind that Alexander initially gave his verbal to Florida State. It could be that he has just decided to rethink again.
Or it could be a false-positive type situation. Where rumors, reports and overly-parsed words lead to conjecture and suddenly it becomes conclusory.
So, please hold off on the overreactions and let’s see how this plays out.
I’m sure that Mr. Wannstedt and Gattuso will hypnotize him back into the fold. Worst case scenario is that we lose a really good prospect at a position that we are fortunate enough to have built up some depth.
I’m sure that “Gattuso Jr.” in Monroeville is probably simultaneously calling, texting, and instant messaging him as I type this.
Sorry, couldn’t hold off on the overreactions…
