Cookie Belcher Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 He didnt tweet at pitchford hours after he announced he made his decision and then start following Taylor Martinez Come on, don't try to act like those are the same thing Badgett Fan 1 Quote
hhcmatt Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 He tweeted directly to Pitchford too.....none of us will know until Tuesday but Elbert. These are 18 year old kids that are tweeting one another. Who's to say he didn't make great relationships at every single place he visited? So he tweeted and followed somebody...big deal. We'll see how this plays out. I'm going to need some confirmation from you ER stalkers out there but it's pretty much about the timing. If he's announcing that he's made up his mind where to go to college and initiating contact with players from Ohio St on the same day, that says a lot. Quote
BirdsOnTheBat Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 has the jet left Dallas yet? Quote
FredsSlacks Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 At least we for sure beat Georgetown! Cell, jdostal and hhcmatt 3 Quote
Silverbacked1 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 Well on Tuesday we will hear the fat lady sing. Hope the song is "There is no Place Like Nebraska" but if not thanks for the ride Elbert. Quote

These are 18 year old kids that are tweeting one another. Who's to say he didn't make great relationships at every single place he visited? So he tweeted and followed somebody...big deal. We'll see how this plays out. I think that's the most important thing to remember. Last time we tried decode an 18 year old on twitter we were all burned. Time will tell. However, I think that him following Braxton may be the most telling twitter action. I don't see why he would bother to do that if he wasn't going to OSU. It's possible they met when Elbert visited, but I would think the chances of that are slim. Following the BMOC of a school you don't plan on going to? Odd. Especially since Braxton isn't a very active tweeter. (Disclaimer: I do not understand twitter. Nor do I care who tweeted, twitted, twatted who. It is a fun source of gossip, though) Quote
bobcat402 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 First Atewe, than Sai, maybe ER....lets put a cap on page limits to 15.. for our own sake...can we put me a fake mustache on Maric and get him some eligibility... Quote
ajb5856 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 ER also follows Pitchford, Nate Hawkins, Kenya Hunter, and Craig Smith. Quote
ShortDust Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 I think this announcement will make this get to 40 pages easy!! It's not like he's gonna stop tweeting either. Quote

Unless you're trying to throw off the masses and thus shock everyone on Tuesday. I doubt that's the reason but it's the only explanation that leaves me a little bit of hope. Quote

berlinblackshirts Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 I got my hopes up on page 30 and now this Still have some hope that he goes with the good guys on Tuesday. Any clue at what time he will anounce? Quote
bball23 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 He didnt tweet at pitchford hours after he announced he made his decision and then start following Taylor Martinez Come on, don't try to act like those are the same thing I'm not saying NU gets him, I'm also not going to judge who he follows and tweets at. So, say he visited OSU a month ago and then a few days later started to follow some OSU players. Visits NU last week and then starts to follow some of them as well since he just recently met them. That automatically means that NU wins because he starts tweeting some new players HE JUST MET?? People always assume the last place somebody visits is going to be the place they go. So he tweeted at an OSU kid...big deal. If I tweet at my mom that I love her, then tweet at my dad that I love him, and 2 hours later I say I know what I want for Christmas, does this mean that I'm expecting my dad to buy it since I tweeted him last?

a0t0w0 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 Just curious... Is it possible we were told no (or the coaches saw the writing on the wall) and they still go down to talk with him? It's much harder to break up in person. Quote
royalfan Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 You are kidding yourself if you think it is a neutral sign that he is adding OSU athletes to his tweeting immediately after announcing he made his decision. Still hoping it doesn't matter, but it certainly is more negative for our hopes. Cookie Belcher 1 Quote
49r Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 Norm, I think we can get to 40 pages by the end of the day. C'mon, I know we have the ability. LET'S DO THIS!!! leonidas 1 Quote
BirdsOnTheBat Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 anyone who follows the tail numbers, has the plane left Dallas yet? Quote
uneblinstu Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 It doesn't appear as though it has. Quote
ajb5856 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 How soon until something is leaked? I think we've got him. I don't know anything, but are we gonna be stuck waiting until Tuesday before ER shocks the recruiting world with his announcement? I have a feeling twitter is gonna be shut off, probably no more clues from the coaches. Quote

Just curious. Quote

a0t0w0 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 Going through this again really makes me appreciate Hammond. Dude didn't mess around. Quote
ShortDust Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 I want him to shock the world and pick us, but the writing is on the wall and gut is telling me osu Quote
The Coach Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 Based on the timing, I'd be shocked if he doesn't pick OSU. They just lost out on their #1 Center prospect last night, and the next day Elbert has decided? Hard to believe that's just coincidence. Add the fact that he just visited OSU last weekend and the Twitter stuff, and it doesn't look good for us. Quote
Norm Peterson Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 Listen, I said a long time ago when he didn't commit to us right away that we should just move on (as a fan base) and figure it wasn't going to happen. Odds too long taking all these additional visits. If it happens, I'll be happy and certainly take it. But I've figured so long now that it wasn't going to happen that if he doesn't pick us, I'll roll with it. Either way. Our program doesn't die if Elbert Robinson chooses someone else. Just like it didn't die when we didn't get Akoy Agau. Quote
