Hello, Newman.

Hello, Boilers.

Welcome aboard, Brandon Newman. Exciting times and full steam ahead.

Im estattic to get him. He seems like a late bloomer maybe? which bodes well, seems to be potential there. Was that why it took so long to offer him though? For a guy top 75 it seemed like a late offer for a quality recruit.

I compare him to Glens kid that went to meat chicken
Both were late bloomers but great gets at the time. This kid will be what Etwaan did for us.
He and hunter will be a dangerous combo in 2-3 years

Why do you say a “late offer”? Painter makes offers when and if the player expresses interest. Not sure what the heck you are talking about. Newman sat on the offer for some time before he committed. Where are you getting the timing from?

You may be confusing timelines for the two. Painter offered Newman before he offered Franklin.

Lots of other P5 schools offered him before we did. Probably what he’s referring to, especially since he’s in our backyard.

Painter waits for the players to come to him? I don’t think this is true.

Not exactly what I meant. Painter doesn’t mail them out to every player in the top 150.

Early on, many schools thought Newman was going away from home, which may have been the case (moving to school in Fl.) Before issues occurred and circumstances changed.
