Michael Alaimo

[Chi-Boiler]

Looks like we have or had the highest ranked uncommitted Pro-style QB (#17 R, #13 247) in for a visit either today or recently. He already has Murphy tweeting to him. 247 has him a 100% CB to Sparty, and he has a pinned tweet of their offer on his TL. Any thoughts on this prospect? Haven't seen his name mentioned here.

It sure seem like this guy was a lock for Boston College originally. There has been very little pomp and circumstance with this visit. I am speculating there is nothing to see here, just a high school student going through his official visits based on his coaches tweet about the visit, it sounds like he is just going through the process. I am going to guess that either we already have a quarterback silently committed or he is already silently committed to MSU.

Picked up a CB for Purdue tonight. From an msu guy as well!

 

[FirstDownB]

Aliamo. That is a name to remember!

Along with the Alamo, it would be nice to remember his name correctly, Alaimo.

 

[Chi-Boiler]

My bad. Just noticed it myself.

100% for Alaimo now with Wiltfong and another national analyst as well. That’s 3 picks since yesterday. Must be some real buzz

Curious about how that works with 247. I'm not a VIP, so for me it shows 100% for Purdue, but only 1 of the 3 analysts is "unlocked", the MSU guy. So is that 1/1 or does the 100% mean 3/3 so then you can obviously figure out the locked ones in this specific case?

That's what I have always assumed (that you can determine the locked selections) but now I'm interested in knowing as well!

I’m not VIP either. I checked earlier when I seen it on this post that we had a pick and it showed 50% with MSU. It only showed the Purdue one and the other was VIP but was easy to guess since there was only 2. Then I checked later and it showed 3 picks all Purdue. 2 were VIP but was easy to guess since there was only 3 and 100% Purdue. One of the guys had MSU earlier

Have to critically look at MSUs offense last year and Purdue's offense last year. If you were a pro style QB, which one would YOU want to play in?

Gotcha. So the total % includes the locked picks but just not the individual picks. That's what I was wondering.

I assume so. At least it seems that way

 

[Chi-Boiler]

Yeah. Almost seems pointless to keep some VIP but I suppose some people care about the details when there's 10 or more predictions or someone changes theirs.

MSU hasn't done so bad with sending QBs to the NFL lately, even with the terrible offense.

Neither QB in the offense last year has a prayer of making the league.

Their offense has been bad for years

 

[Boilermaker24]

I’m confident it’s Michael Alaimo because...
-100% Purdue on Crystal Ball (including Wiltfong)
-Brian Dohn who is 39/43 on picks this year chose Purdue for Alaimo at the same exact minute as Wiltfong (11:03 AM on the 18th)
And MOST importantly Alaimo
-liked my tweet on Brady’s Bat Signal which was a GIF of a Prairie Dog/Meercat screaming “Michael!”

So yea any lies detected.. I didn’t think so. We’ve got our QB of the future Boilermaker Fans... BOILER UP.. HAMMER DOWN

 

[PUQBMan.]

Just committed. Boiler Up!

 

[1ndyBoiler]

that is HUGE. having a 4* QB and RB on board has to create some big time momentum for all potential commits. The age old snowball effect might be in motion.

 

[Chi-Boiler]

Great news! I literally opened Twitter for the morning and it was my most recent hit. Hey can the mods fix his misspelled name on this thread? Now that he's in the fold I bet the OP is embarrassed.

edit: he must have figured out how

 

[MilwaukeeBoilerFan]

Welcome aboard Michael. Can't wait to see what a few years of Purdue Football will look like if it keeps going like this.

 

[ghostoffatjack]

Boiler Up and keep that Recruiting Train a Rollin’!

 

[Dandelion1972]

Welcome aboard the train!

2 out of the last three, it has not been good, for sure.

Supposedly MSU gambled big, backed off Alaimo and went all in for Purdy and got neither.
