I looked at all of our decommits for the past decade. Outside of the year CJF left and took the recruiting class, which is a bit of an anomaly, only two players (Ford and Taylor) have made the pros. One other plays in Canada. The more likely story is that of the WR (Andre MacDonald) who went to Minnesota (sound familiar)? AndreMacDonald was a 4 star receiver who flipped to commit for the UMN. Unlike Lanier, he was actually from Minnesota. He was suspended as a sophomore, transferred to UW-River Falls as a junior, and dropped off the earth thereafter. He did play briefly for the Minnesota Warriors team, where he competed with players from Hamline University and such, and had a total of under 500 yards receiving post high school (though he did throw an interception, which is cool). I think you have to pay to play for the Minnesota Warriors, so it's the equivalent of a club team. Maybe Kenric Lanier will not follow the glorious path of Andre MacDonald, but to be fair, Andre MacDonald was more highly rated than Kenric Lanier, so there's that...
