Apparently MD is talking to James Coley, the new Captain of the Stripper Boat down south.

 

While I don't blame him at all for looking at as many options as possible. He would be absolutely nuts to go and compete with Duke Johnson for carries.

...and Miami, the entire environment, is not the place to rehab his image.

Took a look at Miami's roster after my previous comment and while I don't think Miami is the school or town for a guy like Dyer who is trying to rehab his reputation, actually Miami wouldn't be a bad situation for him football wise.

With Duke Johnson there Dyer wouldn't have the pressure of having to step right in and carry the load and after Johnson there isn't much proven productivity.

It got me thinking. Maybe Dyer doesn't want or can't handle the spotlight of being a #1 guy, but wants to be at a big time program.

Hard to know what's on his mind.

If he picked Miami, he clearly is showing that he wants to be on a team that wins at any cost, not that he wants to show case his skills.  

 

I have never seen the Louisville campus, but I guess I would have to say it probably is nice.

 

Campus = Tie

Strength of Schedule = USF

Coaching = Tie maybe edge to Louisville because of head coach experience but overall staff I think it is a tie

Stadium = lean USF (Pro stadium)

Opportunity to change team and stand out = USF

Education = Louisville depending upon his major (reputation)

RB's on roster = USF has openings where at Louisville he will be pushing someone out or to a new position if they want to play

Playing time = USF

Overall impact on Team = USF

 

Other factors

Getting into trouble = Louisville

I haven't gone through the many pages since my last post, has he given a time frame for his commitment?

Looks like the end of the week, Aug 2, as USF's camp starts Aug 4, as does Lville's, I believe.

 Wow, this is some crazy homerism.

 

Campus=UL (I've been there)

Coaching=UL (Taggs hasn't coached 1 game yet and Strong is a proven winner)

Stadium=UL (Papa Johns is an amazing OCS)

Getting into trouble=tie (Kids get into trouble at every school)

 

Everything else I'd agree with.

Taggart hasn't coached one game here, but he's got a pretty good track record, turning WKU from a school no one heard of into a bowl team.  I'd give the ad to Strong, but your point needs refining.I do love RayJay.

Gotta agree... PJS is one of the best OCS in the country.

^^^ make it two that agree with CPR. I've been there too. Louisville is doing a lot of things right.
