Ra'shaad Samples (FOLLOW HIM ON TWITTER!)

Samples tweeting today that he will arrive in Lexington at 5:40 TOMORROW for his visit, and he followed that up by asking whether BBN could get him to 5,000 followers by then (he is currently sitting at 4,452). 2 things:
1. If you are in the area and have time, I think a pretty good welcome at the airport would/could go a long way; and
2. If you are not already following him on twitter, DO SO IMMEDIATELY and tell all of your friends to do so. His handle is @10justscored.

Thanks Mj!! Nice to see a fellow BBN member keeping on the ball...its fun when we fans can actually contribute to recruiting!! Lets do our best to give Ra'shaad the rock star treatment..who knows? We make the kid feel welcome and wanted..we could sway a very nice 4 star wr to Lexington!
Great job of keeping us informed MJ..keep up the good work!

Just before he asked if we could get him to 5,000, he was at 3,800. Now at 4,525...700 followers in an hour. It's crazy what BBN can do!

Great job guys. I wish I could get out to the airport and give him a huge BBn welcome!! Im 2 hours away..really hope the Lexington locals get on the ball and show up. Wouldnt it be super sweet to have a large crowd shouting Ra'shaads name..make him feel like a rockstar..and the kid eats it up so much he commits? Thanks to Mj for the heads up. I cant promise.but Im gonna try and get a couple truckloads of BBN'ers down to the airport.

Great job today, BBN. There are a lot of recruits talking about how great the support is from BBN on Twitter tonight.

He seems locked into just Ok St and UK, and already seeing which fanbase gives him the most love, and the way it looks, UK fans seem to be winning that battle easily.
I would love for this kid to pick UK, but the way he tweeted earlier, it seems like he won't make his pick until NSD.
Lets hope twitter was just the beginning on the amount of attnetion and love BBN will show him on his visit.

I believe that once he gets up here with his folks and they sit down with Coach Brown he'll commit.

Are either or both of his parents coming now? A few weeks ago it sounded like he would be coming alone.

Yeah if he is alone, has Stoops had a chance to have an inhome visit? Or could it happen between now and NSD, if he is impressed and wants his folks to meet Coach Stoops.
