Right...nothing is officially official until signing day. If he was really wanting to get an offer from Western, but just hadn't yet, then he could still switch.
Remember, we had a bunch of guys who'd verbally committed to us who reopened their recruiting when we switched coaches. I believe Lenior committed to SIU before they fired Lennon as well. He could easily switch and pick Western if this is where he wants to go.

Lenoir originally stated he was committed to SIU, but open to WIU and bigger offers. That was months ago and both teams had different coaches and staffs. He may be more committed to them now with Hill, but I bet they wouldn't have offered if they didn't feel like he'd take it...the staff likely has some inside information.

Just by his post on twitter it does seem like he is very interested.

Not really surprising. I figured we'd lose at least a few to USD.

Also noticed that we made an offer to Jake Richardson, an OLB from Minneapolis:

I don't think that he was someone that coach fisher tried very hard to keep.
