Lewis has decommitted from USC after his UGA visit on 11/16

Time to update the title @Hovadipo!

Lewis is a Georgia native so it wouldn’t be surprising if he ends up there,

At this point I don’t give a sh!te if he goes to GA, CO, USC, Walmart or Costco. Just pick a place.

Good friend is a diehard UGA fan and said that he read from one of their insiders that Kirby asked Lewis what it would take to get it done and then gave a “no thanks” after hearing the demands. Day one starter, money, etc. All stuff that would make sense for him to get at Colorado assuming Prime doesn’t leave.

Lewis reclassified -- so if you yield to his demands to be the Day 1 starter, you'd essentially be handing the keys of a P4 program to a high school senior. 

To me, that's a pretty scary proposition.

In terms of Deion Sanders.....just my opinion, but staying at Colorado > going to Florida State.  NIL might be better at Florida State, but the ACC is in dire straits.  Both the SEC and Big Ten rejected Clemson and Florida's attempts to join.  Best case for Florida State would be to join Big 12 but that's likely years away.

I know everyone's on pins and needles waiting for this announcement.

After his “commitment,” Pat should ask him what schools he is visiting next week.

Gotta be Georgia, right? Kid seems like a prima donna. He's displayed himself that way, at least.

This recruitment got extremely tiresome and boring quickly!

I think so.  He de-committed as soon as he got the Georgia offer, I believe.  Seems like that is what he was waiting for.

Pat McAfee?!!? That's the most IU-friendly place to announce possible.

I would fully... over 90% likely expect him to announce for Colorado, but ya never know which school worked out terms with Juju Lewis.

[Hovadipo 55,104]

Announcing on McAfee is really strange. I'm sure there's a connection, but I'm having trouble finding it.

Might have to "Google it."

Google says...The University of Prime.

[Certified Sunshine Pumper 8,897]

Ahhh... so he wanted NIL AND a guaranteed starting spot. Got it 

[Lebowski 2,442]

He said he wanted a chance to play right away.  He'll end up at IUFB once Prime leaves.

Colorado model is just not sustainable because of things like that. 

[Certified Sunshine Pumper 8,897]

I think we dodged a bullet here.

Whoever changed the title of this thread, I hope you did it with a pencil and not in ink.

If you told me a year ago that IU had a legit chance to land a 5* QB then backed off and that I just shrugged and said "who cares?" when he committed elsewhere I would have called you a liar. Yet here we are.

Sounds like a match made in heaven
