Perhaps it was Coachdad...His silence is golden, isn't it??...lol

Perhaps Wales thought himself a little more important than what he actually is and maybe Strong just viewed him as a whiney primadonna.

Wales strung U of L along, They asked him to make his commitment public (3 different time lines) He didn't do it. They had to get a RB and as soon as Ratliff committed and wales got the word he came out with his "I want to be the face of the program" It was to late.At that point he was offered a gray shirt.I think Ace had bad advice from someone close to him, and with the Demarcus Smith fiasco last year its not hard to guess who. These guys want to play this recruiting publicity out, and unless you have 20 offers you better be careful.These coaches recruit for a living and get paid big money to do it,These high school coaches shouldn't put these kids in this spot because they enjoy the attention.UL had to move on a running back and they did.I think Ace will have a great year at Western and wish him luck. Side note..If your looking for any objective info on any athletic program in the state the CJ is the last place to go.Demling and Bozo are pure UK plants. Im a UK fan but don't hate the Cardinals. I want to read the truth not propaganda.

Wales basically over valued his self IMO!!! If your a Lamar Dawson, James Quick, or Mike Bush yeah you can wait until national signing day to committe, but Basically Wales played himself. Wales had an offer for 2 YEARS and UofL offered him a grey shirt still just as UK did. If he truly wanted to be a Card he had 2 years to pull trigger. If your not a blue chip player you better take your offer when you get it. Such as the Bowles and Manley did. Towles was a 4 star player and he committed to UK before national signing day.

As for Smith UofL NEVER pulled his offer he opened his recuritment and then committed to UCF. Then I think he opened it up and then recommitted to
UofL.
