Micah Carter decommit and flips ….

That tells you how much a coach influences a decision (or at least the allure of Coach Brohm)...prior to the change, I don't recall Gilbert ever mentioning UL...

Of course it can, but the UL board would have you believe Jeff Brohm is some high dollar name...

I'm 34, and the majority of people my age don't give a flying **** about Jeff Brohm or any other Brohm... That dude was drafted about the same time I was born.

There is no allure around the name outside of UL message boards.

Are you from Louisville?

Unless I am breaking forum rules, I will post as I feel motivated. I have had many great interactions on this site over the years. I thank those posters who are considerate enough to read and reply to my posts. Anyone offended by my presence are free to put me on ignore at any time.
 
Seriously let the dude post. Stop acting like a 12 year old because someone from another fanbase posted. As for Carter, on paper it’s a good flip but it is odd that UK was never high on this kid (no I have no idea why not). Brohm is probably gonna get every trinity prospect though so

KW, I agree with you 1000% re rivals posting; wrt Carter, if I recollect correctly, the UK staff was concerned re injuries...

Of course you’re welcome to post here any time - I mean that. But if we UK fans went on the UofL board touting a kid that committed to UK, I have a feeling we’d get the ban hammer in short order.

I don't post on the UofL Rivals board, so I am not sure how they operate. I post on Inside The Ville. I would not agree with the banning of any poster who engages in friendly interaction.

Reminds me of a story from many years ago. My best friend and his family are all UK fans. I was home on leave from the USN and he invited me to a family game watching party. I was welcome to wear my UofL gear. What started off as friendly banter with his teenage nephews got a little heated before halftime. I went to the restroom and when I returned there were no more disparaging comments. Later, I asked him what happened. He said his brother told the teens that if they didn't knock it off that he would allow me to kick their ass......and he would help me do it.

Besides we already have 1 defensive lineman in this #50 recruiting class. Don't need any more than that.
 
Carter is definitely going to end up as a DT. So he probably needs to get 290 before he will be effective. He has the frame for it but really needs to add to his base/legs.

I think in 3 years he can be a pretty good player in the middle. Nothing wrong with him as a player and is a good pickup for UL.
 
Carter was not a guy that popped in games. I think the frame thing to add weight if all well snd good but won’t he be even less explosive if he adds 30 lbs?
 
Yeah he is just not an explosive player. He has good hands and with the added weight can be a good space eating DT using his hands and upper body strength to get off blocks.

Sorry friend but it’s just very Hard to believe this story! Any age Louisville fan kicking any age Kentucky fans ass, well that just doesn’t seem realistic! I have to wonder if you’re trying to maybe tell a little flib to seem cool or something? Ha. Anyway, back to the the real world. Lol. Just messing with you bud.

Hope you guys made a great hire with Jeff and he can turn the program into a success. Not against us of course but it wouldn’t bother me at all to see you guys become a top 25 program year in and year out as long as we stay few steps ahead. Best of luck with signing day and next season.

I refuse to watch UK games with other teams fans. Bad mojo I like to enjoy games and not bicker with other fans. You were looking to show off.

I didn't say I could or would kick anyone's ass. When I was out of the room my friend's brother, who was the father of some of the teens, is the one who told them he would let me kick their ass.....and he would help me do it. It was his way of telling them to knock it off.

The point of the story is that sometimes the adult has to step in and straighten the kids out when they are out of line.
 
ACC is probably the right level of football for this kid. Has nice size on film, but lacks any real burst or lateral quickness. Adding weight and moving to DT seems like the right move. Will definitely have to learn the position and how to play with leverage, because now all he seems to do is stand straight up and run forward.
