2017 Commit List (in OP) and general recruiting thread

[gobigred]

50/50 between Nebraska and WSU right now... I think Coach dub presses Jeremiah Hawkins to flip and tells Calvin to go ahead and go to WSU.

Yea at this point I'm kind of over Calvin. Too much Drama

 

[Brasky]

Hawkins or Thompson would be preferable.

Schaef calling a WSU flip on 247

I hear ya oak. But I know for a fact it happened 4-5 years ago here. A player's dad got a job nice gig. Not sure on the housing situation. And the guy who told me about it said "I can't help your son, but I can help you."

Not saying you are wrong at all. I just know that it happens/happened here. Now that was the old staff so maybe we threw that baby out with the bathwater. It's just so frustrating because we know USC isn't playing fair.

Like you say, USC isn't playing fair, and you can be sure it's not some nice job she got set up with. We're handcuffed and will have a hard time pulling kids in that sort of situation until we play the game. Our only hope is kids like the Calabasas crew who have enough money to not need the extras.

Utah

I am more or less pissed that these coaches don't really give a shit about the kids. If they did why are they not helping out the next door neighbor who's probably be in the same boat as Lewis mother is God bless her soul. And the kids being in a shitty situation to where they feel they have to commit to a school so the school can provide be for the family.

Rumor is that Calvin didn't even get into Nebraska... academics an issue.

 

[Brasky]

Utah

That sucks. I'm over these midgets we keep going after.

McQuitty jumped Calvin in the rankings. Maybe it's because he doesn't look like a slight breeze could knock him off his feet.

Ah yes the ubiquitous "didn't qualify academically"

Let's run through it:

Too small
Coaches went cold on him
Scared of competition
Parents are assholes
Too dumb

 

[Footballnut]

Well... he is really small.

 

[Brasky]

I am hearing the same thing at 247 about academics if it means anything to ya

 

[Footballnut]

we'll find out tomorrow. Signing day gets weird

Do you have any good news for us ?

 

[Brasky]

Well Nebraska will be paying for Patrick Pelini to walk on at Notre Dame.

McQ is my favorite of this class, he is a huge get.

We should at least have 2 guys commit tomorrow? That's all I got. However, the 2018 class has a ton of potential right now. So that's good.
