Looks like Neath's announcement is up next. The MC is talking him up while a picutre of mountains appears on the computer screen behind Neath.
Apparently he received 13 D1 offers.
We have a lot to rip on Manning for but getting commitments from 2 guys in the top-150 for 2019 isn't one of them.
Facepalm
You'd have a point if they weren't the marquee recruits for the class. These are the type guys we should be filling 1-2 spots of a class in with, not building a class around.
Arguing about Manning's recruiting like this when we pulled in top 50 recruits the last two years, including the highest-ranked recruit we've had in a decade who is now starting for us, just seems hollow.

For the record, it *sounds* like Neath is quite a bit better than "top 150". Players ranked in the top 5 of his league (as he is currently) are typically easily top 100 players once the rankings shake out.
No idea if that'll happen here, or why the major service rankings are lagging so far behind for him, but it's worth mentioning.
