Anyone that believes coaches don't make promises to players to get them to commit & sign have been living under a rock for decades. This goes on everywhere, including our coaches. Yes, I do believe they have told both JR & MD that they see them starting and being the next best QB here. All schools do this.
I trust my source more than I do JC mainly because in 25 years that I have known this person, he has been wrong 2, maybe 3 times. JC has been wrong way more than my friend. JC is a great guy, and yes, he goes mainly by what 18 yr olds tell him and GP. That it in itself tells it all.
Again, not my opinion, but what I was told and sharing it. If it's completely wrong by anyone's standards, then I'm sorry. It just seems the way the Robinson & Collins situation has played out this season, it is more believable than not. Take it for what it's worth.
