no, CD doesn't have the bag as his important factors on making a decision. Fit with the team, and being allowed to run the show are huge for him.

Iowa and Miami, if money is the deciding factor then I'd say Miami, but I don't think that's going to be it.
If Ben can somehow get Cayden to commit to the Hawks over the blue blood schools, in-state schools and schools with deeper pockets, I'd say he is some kind of Svengali.

I think it’s a true toss up whether we get CD or not. You cannot say the same in the Fran era…we wouldn’t even get a sniff at this level of talent.

I'd go with "Double D's", everyone likes a good pair of those.

Serious question. Let’s say Miami does offer a little more money. Iowa has no one who could chip in a little more to match it? And what I mean is CD likes BMC and Iowa the best but feels obligated to take the Miami offer because it’s a little bigger.

I just can’t believe if BMC really wants this kid and the kid wants Iowa that Iowa can’t find a way to spend what’s needed (provided it’s not an obscene amount beyond market value).

My biggest concern is it’s Iowa and 3 in-state schools he’s pretty much narrowed it down to. He may love Iowa but may not want to be that far from family.

These kids have agents already. I am curious as to how much influence they have over these prospects.

I see On3 has updated their % prediction on Daughtry

reminder, their prediction % I believe uses analytics that really can skew numbers. Proximity to home, visit, and time since last visit, as well as upcoming visits all play into the numbers.

Basically, I don't care what the numbers say because they really haven't meant much historically speaking. Until you see someone actually project a school as getting the commitment.

Yeah, I agree. Just sharing as it seemed like the first change I had seen in a while and he had the recent Iowa visit.
