I am sure the coaches will make it very clear going forward to recruits. It is certainly harder when they come in mid year and are not sure what the Jones staff communicated to them.
Looking around, things seem not to be great grade wise for SOC athletes. Similar situation for two DBs who were headed to Wisconsin. SOC has failed its players, lots of 2* players with multiple offers but no commit.
