💡 Why the Rumor May Be Suspicious
1. Verbal flips usually get media coverage
High-profile recruit switches like this are often covered by ESPN, 247Sports, Rivals, or On3 within hours—not weeks.
2. No social media confirmation
Recruits typically post a highlight on platforms like X or Instagram to announce such a flip. Searches show no such activity from anyone named Jake Weir.
3. Name confusion?
The only Jake Weir with current quarterback listings is playing at Mississippi State—not a high school recruit transferring commitments.
