Seems we didn't offer Ohonba.  Per a source

Is this sort of miscommunication common?  I have, obviously, no idea who communicated/listened badly, but he appears to think he has an offer.

More common than you'd think. Anything from the misinterpreting general noncommittal recruiting for an actual verbal offer (this happened with Bailey Hockman a year ago), to confusing Stanford with Samford(!), to just straight up lying about it on Twitter to get coaches from other programs more interested.

No idea in this particular case. But no Stanford coaches are following Ohonba on Twitter. He doesn't actually have an offer.

I never paid a whole lot of attention to recruiting, other than looking through the class that signed each NSD.  I have learned so much since I started reading the Cardboard.  This is just another example.  8)
