Yo @UMassTwittter #umasstwitter guess what? I got a feeling I will have more news for all of you this week
1. He can't comment on any 2023 commits
2. He indicated he was done with 2022 recruiting
3. We do need 2 more home games, but would he get this excited about Lowell or Albany or ???
4. Maybe they finally got a P5 team to come to Amherst. That would be worthy of a Frank Martin tweet.
5. I'm out of ideas.
Think this is probably the schedule announcement. While we know most of our schedule from other schools its still news for the school to formerly announce it

He can't directly comment on 2023 commits, but he did retweet a number of people's tweets about Jayden Ndjigue committing to UMass. Maybe it's Robert Davis Jr.'s announcement (coming on Aug. 26)?

The approach worked for Cal, so why not? Just need to follow it up with success.

Frank is doing everything right from a pr perspective. If he wins like Cal he'll get crowds like Cal, if he wins like Ray Wilson or McCall he'll have crowds like those coaches saw.
