High school recruit flips commitment from Colorado to Mississippi State back to Colorado in 30-hour span
Oddly enough, this happened back in June, also involving Colorado and a school from the Magnolia State (Ole Miss).
Key points
- That's all it took for Jones to get cold feet and flip back to Colorado.
- I mentioned it yesterday, but this is a 365-day-a-year racket, and if coaches don't stay on top of things in the talent acquisition world, they'll be run out of town so fast it will make your head spin.
- Jones is an offensive tackle from the Nashville area and one of the top recruits in the state of Tennessee.
It's a thankless job, and oftentimes the antics of some of these high school athletes will be enough to make you want to stop watching college football altogether.
Seems like a solid choice, given the Bulldogs' success early in the season when quarterback Kamario Taylor and running back Fluff Bothwell were still healthy.
Additional details
- But just as it seemed Li'Marcus found his home for the next four years (or at least until the transfer portal opened next winter), it happened.
- It is a program on the rise, especially on offense, and I'm sure any lineman would be more than happy to block for those two guys.
- Stop me if you've heard this before, but college football recruiting is not for the faint of heart.
- I'm not trying to pick on Li'Marcus here, because plenty of recruits do stuff like this.
- Hell, he's not even the first one to do it this recruiting cycle.
