Jayden Nunn Decommits
- Thread starter Cyched
- Start date
Again, that's not my point. I don't care if he was signed and TJ told him to take a hike. That's TJ's choice.
My only issue with this (and it isn't even that big of an issue, but I'm annoyed at the people who are determined to excuse it completely) is that TJ should have called him. That's the right thing to do.
I know what you're trying to say, but let's not include Eastern Michigan. They actually made the NCAA tournament this year, which is more than can be said for us.
If an assistant contacted Nunn and told him TJ wasn't interested, I have zero issue with this. I don't see the need for TJ to personally contact a kid that he never recruited. An assistant should be able to do that.
Now if nobody on staff reached out, and this kid has truly has been sitting in the dark for the past week, the optics change a little. But as some on here have indicated, it sounds like someone on staff did reach out.

I was meh on the TJ hire, but ******** because a recruit whose other options are miami oh wasnt personally informed by TJ himself isnt something im going to crap my pants about. You all act like the CEO of every company is the one going around and personally firing people (who were never even hired), which is laughable. Hell, TJ might have thought the news would be better coming from someone the kid actually knew who was on staff before. Don't know. Would it have been nice of TJ had the time to do it, sure, but this isnt a reason to get our panties bunched up.
Your first paragraph is right
What are you not understanding here? I expect TJ to recruit better than Nunn, I don't expect him to land Marcus Carr 3 days into his new job. Anybody expecting Carr right away is delusional about how bad the program is right now.
If this was Tj taking over for Fred in 2015 we might have a shot.
A call from TJ should have been made but we don't know the entire story. Right now were at 14 pages of speculation off of Nunn's tweet. I guess there is a reason that we'll hear about later that explains the reasoning. It could be as simple as asking DRob who Nunn has a relationship with talk with him first. TJ likely has never talked to Nunn before.
Some of you maniacs need to get a life. JFC.
Lol, what?? Maybe you confused them with Ohio or North Texas because they gave green uniforms?
I understand you 5x5. We expect to recruit better that Nunn......but not as good as Carr. We need to be competing against Kansas for players not Sienna........unless it's players the caliber of Carr. Pull the nail out of your foot so you stop walking in circles.
so much this.... there’s a lot of speculation going on here when no one has heard TJ’s side of the story.
I’m going to play a little devils advocate here as well. Since communication is always a two way street Jayden could’ve easily reached out to his contact(s) at ISU as well and asked or even pushed for a call/discussion with TJ. What coach or hiring official would not want someone that takes initiative and leads like that?
If this tweet is any indication, perhaps TJ was smart not to talk to him personally. Sometimes, you just have to avoid making things worse.
Let’s just say I’m working on my mute list today. If you can’t help but make assumptions and run with them when you know damn well that you aren’t in the loop and have next to no verifiable facts then that’s a you problem. It also means I shouldn’t waste my time reading your pathetic rants.
You don't know what all was involved. Easy to be critical when one knows nothing. I would be willing to bet that TJ was not sitting at home eating crackers. They certainly don't need pointers from some dimwit on Cyclone Fanatic.
