2:36 update- Will have to wait awhile to hear how Agim liked his visit.

[jackflash]

would like to see Capps and Hammonds go a head an commit. But to meet it was just as important that White had a great visit. I think he may be the no 1 running back were after.

Awesome news

[Arthur pigby sellers.]

Thanks so much for the update RD.  Do you know why the 2 prospects didn't make it?

[Hawgzinbowlz]

When Devin White said the visit helped Arkansas' chances for him and he plans to come back in the spring or summer, it sounds like we're in the mix for his services.

Good to hear Coach Enos is making a positive impression.

Very disappointed Daniels didnt make it and that it sounds like he may not visit at all

He's the best I've seen us go after in the Bielema era.

I felt the same way. I thought we were certainly one of his favorites. Evidently not so much.

Better than AC? I wanna see this guy's highlight reel.

Why would CBB ask him to wait until spring game when he was ready to come this weekend? Bad move by CBB and staff imo.

Or maybe, despite what the recruit wants or the recruiting services say or the message board experts believe he should do, CBB may not be as interested and has several defensive lineman ahead of him. 

That's a  craaaaaaaazy thought, I know. But maybe....

RD re-tweeted a tweet by him yesterday saying that he was unable to make it due to circumstances outside his control.  The coaches asked him to come for the spring game when he told them,  they did not ask him to wait.

Told him not to come this weekend cause there was a mess up and asked him to come in April. He's devastated and A&M offered him last night and one on the way from Ohio St. Chris said he's probably not going to come up at all now cause he feels like they don't want him

Straight from the daniels!

You're right. CBB is so disinterested that he asked Daniels back for the spring game. So either there is real interest in Daniels or CBB is just delaying visits and stringing Daniels along. I think all agree that CBB is more straight forward than that.

Man that stinks.  Bad mistake if true.

Why is it always a mistake. I have trust in coach B to find the players he wants not the players the fans think he should. If coach B doesn't like what he sees so be it.

It's not that he "doesn't like what he sees".  If that was the case CBB would not have asked him back for the spring game.  Read pcmizuno24 post.  They (Arkansas recruiting staff) messed up his visit. 

[PorkRinds]

If he's that devastated because of a mix up, and is going all drama filled and calling out coaches on twitter, maybe he won't be that big of a loss.

[Vantage 8 dude]

Okay...so there was a "mess up" on the part of someone (the staff?). Unfortunately it happens, and I'm sure it does at EVERY program from time-to-time. While it's not what you want to see or hear, IF the young man truly likes the Hogs as we've been led to believe then he'll still make it up later in the spring. Besides, the weather in a few weeks will hopefully be much better than last weekend. IF this is enough to stop him or alter his thinking about the program, and I'm certainly not saying it is, then I seriously have to question his true devotion and liking of the Hogs to begin with. Not "knocking" the young man; just calling it like I see it.

[jjdlc]

Are we even sure that a mess up was made?  Nothing against pccmizuno24, but we get people in here all the time claiming to get info straight from so and so, and probably 90% of the time the info is bogus.  They either got the info 3rd or 4th hand,  or straight out made it up.  This may be one of those times when it is real, but just seems awfully out of character for this staff.  This would be an unofficial visit, in other words Daniels would be paying his own way, so it wouldn't be like the staff screwed up flight plans or anything like that.

My info came straight from senior who I have know for over 25 years! I actually copied his text and pasted it above.
He being a lifelong and die hard hog fan, it really pisses him off how they are stringing junior alone. Either they are interested or not. He understands thats part of recruiting but thinks he may be a fall back recruit. Maybe now that Capps is on board they may not be at all interested anymore. Hard to let a top 300 and #9 defensive lineman go elsewhere IMO.

[rlamb]

We several DL prospect looking at us. Lawrence, Jones, White, a DL from Kansas can't remember his name, Jackson. I hope Daniels comes for a visit. To early in recruiting to get upset.

I am betting that they wanted to have each of these guys on campus "alone" or at least able to have their own private moment. They gave Capps that, and they'll do the same for Daniels. But they won't make him share a weekend with 3-4 other DTs.

A bet, or at least a hunch. Don't blame a parent for being hot about a change (ie, staff realized Capps might commit) or not seeing the bigger picture.

This is likely.  Capps likely was higher on the list, so when they thought he would probably commit this weekend, they may have decided to give him the weekend to himself DL wise.  Or it really could have been a mix up.  Who really knows?

So with your intimate knowledge of the young man you're saying that just because he wasn't on the Hill this past weekend he's definitely going somewhere else?   

[ml2200]

Isn't this the kid who was planning on visiting A&M on Friday and then us on Saturday?  Is it possible at all that the coaches were trying to get him here for an entire weekend?

[TNhawgfan]

Recruiting is like a soap and there's too much drama for me to keep up with it all. You guys on this board do a great job though
