The Official 2014 Recruiting Thread

West Coast peeps.....what you hearing about Adoree Jackson?

I hate to hate...but this guy got honey badger smell ALL over him. Hope he contributes early...

 

[Innermind]

Anybody hear anything on Jamarco Jones? The OSU commit was suppoed to decide today between the Nuts and the Spartans.

Jamarco Jones was supposed to call both Urban Meyer and Mark Dantonio today to tell both coaches his final decision. However, I have not heard any info yet on whether the Spartans were able to flip him from the Buckeyes.

The analyst consensus on Adoree is USC. He wants to compete in the '16 Olympics and has a long relationship with Russell Biggs, a long time track coach at USC. He will be a trojan.

Yeah, I heard the call to MSU occurred but no indication on how it went.

Goddamn....this shit is all twisted. Looks like Williams to UCF may not be a done deal, we're supposedly talking to him, and it's still possible he signs with us. OJ Smith is also not totally out.

I'm done talking about these 2 fuckers until tomorrow. Too many changes from them.

I did hear track was more important to him than football. I think LSU has a super slim chance. I'd rather see him go to USC over fucking Florida though.

Husky recruiting

Buddha Baker, 5 star recruit just made announcement to make Washington his new home. Petersen seems to be reeling them in, even though he got a late start.

Good to see talent staying in-state. Can't say I'm not surprised, though. Folks at UCLA thought he was a lock.

YO, Auburn, what's the word on Andrew Williams?

Any guesses on who will be the first commit to try backing out after faxing in his LOI? Williams has to be pretty high up that list.

Jamarco Jones did not flip to Michigan State...he will remain with Ohio State.

Jamarco Jones Stays With His Ohio State Commitment


Buckeyes are happy...Spartans are sad.

Poona Ford goes to Texas. After all the drama, Texas ends up with two good DT commits.

Now if we land Max Wittek, I'll be COMPLETELY happy with this class. Actually, I'm good with it as is.

Glad to see Lorenzo Joe, Booney, and Freeman stick with us. HUGE signing with Poona - better than any DT we lost.

I heard we got Wittek. True?

 

[Texas Jefe]

lot of rumors with Wittek, but no real confirmation yet. Strong is having a presser at 2:00 CST, so maybe we'll find out more

247 guys have said it is pretty much a done deal. Just glad Strogn finished with 2 DTS in the class. A second yr with 0 DTs would have been a disaster. Plus, I love me some Poona. Best DT Texas has looked at this yr. Height thing is way over blown.

All things considered, Texas salvaged a relatively good class....despite all the distractions and chaos I give Charlie a solid B+ for cobbling together a class on the fly with almost zero contact. It could have been a disaster, but he held Mack's guys together and got a few new guys. POONA FORD so far is the first real achievement of the Strong era.

I can't help but giggle like a little girl every time I see the name Poona.

 

[Texas Jefe]

Poona will be awesome. He is only about 6 ft, or little under. But squats 575. can dunk a basketball and scored 7 rushing TDs. They said he has arm length of a guy 6'7"...

He's got a strong arm, but needs to work a little on his decision making and touch.
