Disrespectful Commitment Ceremonies

[Drew Lockhart]

I’ve witnessed 2-3 recruits throw a Longhorn hat on the ground during live commitments.

OUR STAFF AND PLAYERS use all available resources to give these recruits a great experience on their OV’s and in constant communication for months building these relationships treating them as major priorities. 

I haven’t seen or heard of this happening elsewhere, although I’m sure it does. I know there’s not a direct explanation. However, it’s hard to fathom, especially in-state recruits.  I guess I’m not understanding where the behavior is coming from, especially a K Finley. Regardless of his statement he put out to all the schools after the fact.

I wouldn't read that deep into it. I don't think its about the schools that we are perceiving they are disrespecting, its more about themselves and the schools they are committing too. Is it a bit narcissistic? Yeah, but we are also talking about 17 year olds.

It is all about class and I have faith Sark will "weed" out as many of these posers as he can.  I am so on board with Sark telling these kids if they are coming to UT solely for the money, go elsewhere.  See Ojo's commitment.  The culture has to mean something.
