Potential Good News on Julian Armella
Dec 1, 2021, 10:31 AM
|
|
I am in Miami this week and went out last night dressed in my Clemson gear. I was approached by a guy who said he was connected to Julian Armella and he let me buy him and his buddy drinks all night. He said that the Florida State stuff is really just a smokescreen and Julian is actually leaning towards Clemson.
He agrees that Julian needs to gain a good 20 pounds, but thinks Julian has the best chance to get prepared for the league at Clemson more than Tallahassee. I think I did a good job of selling our OL development even though I believe changes need to be made based on the past two seasons.
TIFWIW, but I believed the guy and am now optimistic that we are going to get him. If you doubt me, he had pictures of Julian on his phone.

I’m not an official booster. Buying someone a few tequila sunrises while talking football isn’t a violation.

Some days start out rougher than others though. Partying in Miami is legit.
Nobody warned me about all the dudes dressed up as girls though. You don’t see stuff like that in Pickins. Even if you did in someplace like Spartanburg or Greenville, they’re easy to spot. Down there, you need to be on your game or you’ll find out too late.

I won’t go into too many details since this is the Football Board, but let’s just say I thought I was dancing with a receiver but it ended up being a quarterback. I fortunately found out before reaching the end zone. I was not flagged for illegal touching and my dancing partner certainly couldn’t have been called for illegal block in the back.

Not too much else to say about the dudes other than that they really look liked hot girls. I probably should add that they are really good dancers too. Mad respect.
No kissing on the lips or reacharounds or anything of that nature. I caught on quick enough.

True story. I tried to do that one night at a club. The girls laughed at me for using $1 bills and I ended up getting jumped in the parking lot afterwards. The joke was on them though. The idiots apparently didn’t realize I blew my last $32 making it rain.

I’m not 100% sure, so don’t quote me but I think you can tell by the persons license plate. Official boosters have the one with the Paw.

I think that guy killed you for free drinks, none of the recruiting sites even mention us in contention for him, let alone even a long shot.

You seem awfully defensive on this one. Are you an FSU troll?
Kids like to play the game nowadays. I’m sticking with my prediction, but you’re entitled to believe whatever you want. That’s why I added TIFWIW to my original post.
Also, that tweet was from before I had drinks with his guy. Just like with coaching visits, things can change after listening to what another team has to say. Fortunately, his guy wasn’t with me at club where I was dancing with a dude.

TIFWIW. Even if I’m wrong on this one it will be OK since I have it on good authority that Venables is staying and Arch Manning wants to follow in Trevor Lawrence’s footsteps at Clemson.

Buddy I think the guy saw an opportunity to get free drinks and took advantage of your hope. We've been out of it with Armella for a while.

You’re doing something wrong if you’re under11par and still having to buy the guys you are playing golf with drinks all night.

I’m more of a one and done kind of guy. Played golf with a guy who I had never met before a couple of months ago. I took a gummie beforehand and was super chill and shot four strokes better than my handicap. He ended up asking me to play his member-guest tournament a couple weekends later.
As it turns out, those events are open bar from beginning to end. I didn’t win a single hole the entire time and maybe tied two at the most. I get really terrible when I drink liquor and talk trash as if I’m a tour player. I haven’t heard from the guy since.

Predicting the timing on these things is tricky. BV was his recruiter for Clemson, so I hope his leaving didn’t throw a monkey wrench in his plans to commit to Clemson. Either way, I still believe Clemson is the pick based on what I heard that night.

That place is really good. On the pricey side so you need to make sure you take full advantage of the coupons. They’ll tell you that they only accept one coupon per visit but will let you use two if you make a stink about it.

Clemson is not in his top cuts. My nephew is in the football program at STA (JV) and plays the same position as Armella. He talks to him regularly, and seeing as my nephew inherited my love for all things Clemson has asked him about chances of going to Clemson. His response has been Clemson is a great program, but outside of that there has been no real interest. It seems that the OP got suckered into buying drinks, hopefully it wasn't multiple shots of Don Julio 1942.
