If you don’t think CJS and Brice have at least discussed this on a surface level, I don’t know what to tell ya.
Cade Fortin officially transferred in a mere 8 days after CJS was named HC. Cade entered the portal all the way back in August. He had multiple P5 offers. You think he was just waiting for that USF offer since August, and then one beautiful morning CJS calls?
These players and coaches have relationships. They talk off the record, just like you and your co-workers. Don’t be so naive.
