    Actually was good to hear someone chewing him and coaching instead of handing out game balls for everyone.

    My lead sentence was "cover skill potential is unbelievable" lol. But seriously, you just know people are gonna lose their minds if he isn't playing every snap vs UGA, so tempering expectations might be wise.
    I think it was the play they reviewed if the UK wr caught the ball on the UF sideline.....Coach Harris sprinted onto the field straight to Cormani and lit him up. Feels like Cormani may be his project

    If they want him to reach his potential, they will need to hold him to a high standard. I do agree with the approach.

    My biggest questions are how he deals with success and failure? How does he respond to adversity? Can he be coached, benched, work in a platoon system? Has he matured into his talent?

    there were rumors that he would never see the field and transfer. Good to see the young man earned some playing time.

    Never truer than the modern NIL era. Excellent advice.

    Beat?

    Or playing the football in the air? The ease with which he made the play makes it seem more like he was playing the football more than the receiver.

    Nah. Dude has way too much potential to just let him wing it. With the right coaching, he could be phenomenal.

    He told at least 2 members of the staff that he was committing, an hour & a half before announcing Miami. In my book that’s pretty dirty.

    I heard Deion and his son were mistreating him. Maybe Deion spread the rumors.

    If you aren’t coming, you thank the coaches that were recruiting you. Always keep it classy.

    I'll have to replay that and see for myself. Was that on TV, or did you see it in the stadium? I'll have to go back and see. In that late game situation on the verge of a big win, there's no reason to get all over a player after making a big play... maybe cut him some slack there.
