Visit to ASU cancelled this weekend.

 

[timnsun]

Great news!

Oops. Forgot to add the tweet.

Unfortunately? Don't like sound of that

Unfortunately? Don't like sound of that

Who knows? Could be more on the part of ASU than butler. Could also be a missed opportunity to go to Arizona in the middle of winter. Would have been a fun trip. Even if it was just for the weather. We really don't know what is meant by his use of the word unfortunately.

If it means he's closer to pulling the trigger with us than I'll take it.

 

[siebo454]

Yes hopefully he indeed pulls the husker trigger

This was all on ASU

As in they cooled on Butler?

Got a good feeling about this one.

 

[rrthusker]

As in they cooled on Butler?

No as in they screwed up the travel plans, tickets etc.

 

[timnsun]

No as in they screwed up the travel plans, tickets etc.

So kind of them!

 

[HuskerO58]

No as in they screwed up the travel plans, tickets etc.

That's what I hope you meant!

 

[RChrisReade]

Does he delay his announcement to take this visit?

 

[rrthusker]

Does he delay his announcement to take this visit?

I'm my opinion no.

 

[yorocco]

I'm my opinion no.

How do you screw up travel plans?
I can buy plane ticket to Phoenix right this minute
If,they wanted him there he could get there .
Interesting ANOTHER neb recruit who does not end up taking planned visit.
Are they all getting some special,gifts to cancel,their visits?

 

[TwinsRRUs_rivals79748]

Looks like the Husker coaches visited him today too.

Yes. Trev Alberts is using his bribe money from killing UNO football and rasslin'.

Couldn't have happened to a better program and coach. #scumbag

 

[HuskerAlum92]

The tea leaves indicate our verbal drought should end no later than Wednesday when Butler announces. I *REALLY* hope that's the case. I shudder to think if the drought is still intact this time next week.

Are you a fan of this team? A lot of not-too-subtle hinting that our staff is doing something unethical in your 24 messages.

 

[eforslund]

Asu stopped recruiting him more than a month ago. He was a backup plan.

Very Columbo of you.

Not according to Butler.

 

[eforslund]

Not according to Butler.

Yeah. And I'm sure the cancellation came as a surprise to him as well. Some kids have a hard time internalizing recruiting. I promise you that he hasn't been actively recruited for over a month. The national guys keep coming to the asu sites and saying asu is in the top 5, top 3, etc. And the asu guys keep saying he is no longer on asu's board. I promise you he hasn't been in their plans for a while.

Maybe Chandler took his spot...

That article looks like ASU cooled on him and Butler is in.

Just curious, and it may be true, but how did you get that ASU cooled on him from that article?

 

[Tulsa Tom_rivals17485]

Just curious, and it may be true, but how did you get that ASU cooled on him from that article?

Why would you now be saying it's down to WVU and Nebraska? Why not just stick with the three teams with which you have an interest?

Makes sense... But If he eliminated ASU himself then the same would be said. The article didn't really say one way or the other, did it? if he eliminated ASU then it would be down to two... I have no idea who cooled on who, though, and you may be right on...

 

[eforslund]

Asu stopped recruiting him over a month ago. You can go to any of the asu public sites to get this info.

Well that was pretty stupid...

No it wasnt. Byron Murphy will be committing on thursday and is one if the top corners in the country. There wasn't room for Butler.

 

[HuskerAlum92]

So ASU stopped recruiting Butler over a month ago because of a commitment coming this week?

 

[eforslund]

Yes. They knew he was coming and they are in on other better guys. Butler became expendable and honestly, isn't anywhere near the prospect Murphy or Jackson are. There are only so many dB spots available on any team and Butler got squeezed out at Asu. I would imagine he commits to Nebraska quickly. Seems like a good kid, just not good enough to beat out top 4 star kids like Murphy, Lucas, etc.

 

[Reedo]

Very Columbo of you.

I think our coaches have told a few guys to commit or we move on so i believe he committed to us and will announce that today

Do us a solid and squeeze out a few more guys.

Whoops Laughing
