I hope you have some inside info.....I certainly don't. I think he's in the cross hairs at home. Gotta be tough for him in and around Pittsburgh. Why would he commit, decommit and then recommit all within 3 weeks?Fearbry at the Lash Bash with all the commits and coaches yesterday......

Comes down to 'do I make the decision that's best or me, or do I let others make the decision for me'. The staff is/should be driving this point home.
The staff doesn't have to walk in this kids shoes in his high school and community for the next 6-9 months.
How much pressure can there be? Have you seen their “home” stadium on gameday? Where are these fans who will be pressuring him?
One caveat : I write this never having lived in Pittsburgh
At the corner store, in school, at church.......everywhere he goes. You'd have to be an idiot to trivialize how adults can make life a living hell for a young kid. It's a form of bullying. I'm sure the kid is thinking gee its only the 20k that go to Pitt Games....F them. Come on man.
Don't be a stupid blind Penn State fanboy and understand that these are little more than overgrown children. They don't have the coping mechanisms of adults......and very few adults could handle daily hazing.
I'm a PSU fan and if the staff wants him, I certainly would love to see him come here. But be a little sensitive to how difficult it can be for a kid living in "enemy" territory to commit to the hated "cow pasture university."
And while I'm at it.....anyone who doesn't think a small segment of so called PSU fans don't disgrace themselves with prospects on twitter and the like, isn't paying attention.
While I hope he ends up at PSU, I want the young man to have a good life.
Having grown up in Allegheny County I agree with this post 100%
Brainless people that target you without any concept that someone can think differently then them. I hope Fearbry can be allowed to do what he wants but
Peer Azzhole pressure can be vicious.
The most flattering thing he was called on "The Lair" was a "weirdo."
Wow, if all Pittsburghers are like you, I now understand. All I did was ask an honest question. Maybe you didn’t read my caveat (caveat means a warning or advisement). No need to be such an ass about it.
I saw your first two sentences. Frankly, I thought your post was pretty naïve.
I would invite you to slide over to the Panther Lair and see what they were saying about the kid to give you some flavor.
Finally, I had no intent to personally insult you.....if you took it that way I apologize.
No problem, not naive, I just wondered how many Pittsburgh fans were like the ones on the Liar
online fanbases are not indicative of most fanbases in general.
It doesn't take 107k fans to make a kids life a living hell. Especially as a gifted young athlete who probably because of his exploits on the gridirons have earned him "god like status" I'm sure he had no inkling what the reaction would be.
On the Lair they accused Franklin of plying the kid with "escorts and drugs." They also refer to Franklin as "Milk Dud," which is patently racist.
Don't take it personally....marshall is nothing more than an elderly dictatorial ass.
Nothing is less attractive than anonymous internet message board fans with a raging inferiority complex. There's always some nefarious reason why a kid would pick somebody other than your team.
If Pitt fans cannot contemplate why a local kid would pick PSU over Pitt, well......
Happens with many fan bases and message boards. Go to any board - especially the bottom feeder schools - and that's the only defense on why they're a lesser program and losing recruits to a more successful program for many. It actually gets hilarious at times
I find this amazing that adults would openly pressure or comment to a kid about choices he is making for his life. Have to say i have never witnessed anything like that, but I am not living in Pitt.
Well get ready for discussion whatever that means.
The Lair replaces the Sunday Comics. Its a laugh riot. Admittedly since PSU and PITT don't play its diminished. However, If anyone says anything negative about their football program, they're labeled "Nitter." I mean, I'm talking roll off the chair, belly laughs.
Yeah, I think its pretty slimy to even indirectly threaten a high school student.
If that's true, what exactly are they implying about Tyreese's character if that's what they think he would be swayed by...? Doesn't seem like the type of fans I'd want cheering me on if that's what they thought of me.
Regardless, if he's going to be on and around Pitt's campus and getting pressure for the next several months as a PSU commit, it would make a lot of sense to decommit, even if it's just temporary, to improve the optics on both sides of the commitment.
Stop. That happens here every. single. time. we lose someone because of the “bag man”.
Believe me, I know. It’s dumb when it happens here, too.
Ok, I am wrong then.
But i thought he did lose his mom but it was Fisher's mom who was incorrectly reported as passing away.
I am confused on this.
Welcome to the internet. Confusion is what it does best.
I Google medical information and I either have the sniffles or 3 days to live. Gotta love it.
Fisher's mother passed away. Members of the staff were at the funeral this past weekend.
Some have speculated that Fearbry's family would prefer that he stay home to go to college. He was at the Lasch Bash and the door is open if he wants to take the scholarship. We shall see. I suspect he will be Lion and reaffirm this Fall.

It's ok to sit some plays out man, this isnt futbol
It's not like there aren't PSU alumni and fans in Pittsburgh. Pitt can't even fill it's small stadium -- I cannot imagine there is that much pressure on him in the community.
The rumors I’ve heard is his Sister wants him to go to school at home. Mom wants him to go away and get away from the kids in his neighborhood. Supposedly, he was upset when we recruited the 5* DE. He wants early playing time at DE. At his weight I don’t see that happening anywhere!
My sister is a Pitt alum and hangs out on the pay board over there. She said, per posters on the pay side, Fearbry’s family wants him to get away from the city for school. If he was upset about DDS, he wasn’t paying attention. Plus there are two sides to the line. And lots of rotations (playing time).
Decommits happen at all the top programs especially when a school keeps recruiting kids at the same position. I read on Eleven Warriors that OSU has already had 3 decommits this year and I'm sure - without checking - that some of the other big programs (Alabama, Georgia, Clemson etc....) have already had a couple or so. These are 16-17 year old kids with their own way of thinking
Yes it was bad info. The OP came back and apologized for his mix up of Fisher and Fearbry but by then it was too late.
I think the mods may have removed the original post but I wonder if, in cases like that, it would be better to nuke the entire thread?🤷♂️
Its unfortunate because it was an honest mistake but then the game of telephone begins...
