If Burmeister does flip, which would be the second time, would it surprise anyone if he left Oregon after a few years because he was not happy with playing time?

If he does flip my only hope is he gets recruited over repeatedly.

Yea, the second decommittment is just a killer. Kid would have zero character in my book. That late and knowing his importance. Come on kid

Did he sign his letter of intent to Arizona yet. Regardless of his decision whether it Oregon or Arizona. If he choose Arizona? He need to sign his letter of intent and get with the program, If Oregon, Let the move the hell on from him and find another QB prospects that willing to come to Arizona.

In this case he would not sign either as he is an early enrollee. He signs the financial aid papers znd reports to school. He will be on one or the other campuses by weeks end

As for sticking with AZ... if you were him, would you?

We are coming off 3-9... RR is looking like a lame duck... the only QB he has had who exceeded expectations was Denker.

Oregon sucked last year and has a new coach, but it is still Oregon. I don't think they need a payoff to win this one.

I hope he sticks... but I am not sure this should be too surprising if he does not.

My parents taught me that my word and commitment were things to be kept at all costs. I'm not sure what Braxton's parents taught him, but I guess we'll find out.

That's admirable. If coaches aren't going to live up to that standard (and that is a shot at the lot of them, not just ours), I don't expect 18 year old kids to.

Maybe he is just kickin' tires. Wait a minute... shouldn't we cut him loose even if he is? Seems interested, not committed. (Yes, that was a shot at ours ;))

He committed once, then had second thoughts. That I can understand. Committing twice and not living up to that is something I will have a much harder time understanding.

Irish told you he heard from a friend that Braxton is coming. If you have evidence to the contrary, feel free to share it. If you don't believe him, keep it to yourself. If you want "proof" or the name of his source, either PM Irish or once again, just be quiet. We don't have too many connected posters here, and I'd rather you not run one of them off with unreasonable demands or just by being . . . you.

Ok kitty cat since you want take Irish buddy word that BB has decided to come to Arizona. Where the news and the report on that? Their no actually News, report, or word yet. Until their is, He has to sign his Letter of Intent to make it official in case you forgotten that. I'm not going to believe that a buddy had more info on the situation on hand.

Just a side note, no athlete has to ever sign a NLI. That ties an athlete to a school. They can just sign the scholarship papers which ties the school to the athlete.





Word is that RichRod is going to offer this guy if Burmeister bails.

I believe Irish. He's never given us any reason not to.

Feel free to not believe him, but don't insult quality posters who bring us good info just because you're ignorant or uninformed. Unless you'd like another timeout...

I'm guessing that no official news is good news for us. Lord knows that I would certainly be embarrassed to have to publicly affirm my commitment a third time. Probably best to just show up on campus and get to work.

If Burmeister shows up, then this will be the first inkling for most fans that RichRod may be at the helm beyond next season. Of course, what happens on the field matters, but the "we have young studs to build around" will smooth over some of the rough waters for the head ball coach. And recruiting victories matter, too.

But should BB defect to the Ducks, open the flood gates.

Don't Sonoran dogs have peppers?
From what I've read doesn't seem like he would have the stomach to handle spicy food. Oh and some of the sorority houses don't open until 2:00PM this afternoon.
I'm betting Rhett Rod is happy. If BB bails, RichRod has a ready made excuse to start his son at QB.

When my daughter lived in San Antonio she found a Sonoran dog restaurant. They trucked the rolls in every day from Tucson.

I was in Tucson over the holidays, and our best meal with that Sonoran dog place on 22nd.

Went to other places I used to like, El Charro, La Molinita and so on, and never going back to those places. Food was drab, service was awful, and esp. El Charro was way too expensive.
