Well the Longhorns are supposed to be pursuing a Graduate Transfer kid from Eastern Washington. He had a good career there, and I think he's visited Oregon as well. He could most likely walk in to Austin and start for the Longhorns next year.
I see that CeCe Jefferson is offically a Gator, must have just taken a few days for Gator Big Cigars to figure out what they needed to do to tweak his contract to suit his Dad.
It seems Terry that it was a matter of UF changing DL coaches more than anything else. The guy they brought in it turns out was recruiting CeCe the last two years for different schools. What a coincindence! :lol:
Terry, Isn't Eastern Washington that team that dropped tons of points on everyone and even when they lost, you had to beat them in a shootout?
Kid had a good run at EWU, he just went with Oregon and will most likely be the starter next year. As I posted Texas talked with him, and he'd have been the starter for sure. At Oregon he'll have to compete for the job, but it might be one of those things where he's a West Coast kid and just didn't see himself in Texas. But he's got numbers.
:? What I could never figure out, was how this Catholic school kid from Alemany HS wound up at Eastern Washington in the first place. He's that good and he's not a secret. He will NOT have to compete for a job at Oregon as far as I know. I was listening to this story on the way home from work today, and they were saying that Adams had been guaranteed the starting job at BOTH UCLA and Oregon, which pissed off the QBs who had been waiting in line at both schools. The QB at UCLA is Loyola HS's Jerry Neuheisel...son of you-know-who... http://www.dailynews.com/sports/20150209/vernon-adams-ex-alemany-star-qb-will-transfer-to-oregon-from-eastern-washington
If he's successful he'll be glad he's at Ohio State, more good things are ahead for the Buckeyes, while at Mich it's probably going to take a year or so ..probably longer to get where the Buckeyes are right now.
There is starting to be some chatter that Ryan Newsome, a kid who everybody thought was going to UCLA, but went with Texas on NSD, is now trying to get Charlie Strong to release him from his Texas LOI so he can go to UCLA. We didn't fire the WR coach so he can't claim that, and if he has a sick relative he can't claim he needs to be closer to home. I guess he could claim that he was promised that UT would get a QB who could throw the ball and they didn't so he was lied to! I've been for a early signing period, I wonder if it'll just increase the number of kids with buyers remorse?
Well Al Golden and the Miami Hurricanes sure have a leg up on their 2016 recruiting haul. According to Rivals they already have 18 kids committed. Yikes that's a lot even for Mack Brown, who was usually very fast out of the gate and pretty much done with his class by the end of May. Not even the end of Feb and the Caines are 2/3 of the way to 25. BTW Ralph, how is Golden doing with the Hurricane fans? He's 28-22 overall and 16-16 in ACC play. I doubt if that is where Miami fans want to be, what are the prospects for his 5th year?
They say a picture is worth a thousand words.... Not a whole lot of love to be honest, the general feeling is he thinks he is still at Temple, recruits players that excel only after leaving the coaching staff under him, and can charm the pants off a nun when finding the wonderful words to describe another loss. Miami's president leaves in April and has been quoted that she will not fire a third coach in her tenure (Larry Coker and Randy Shannon). So it is up to the new president who at this time has not been announced. So he is here at least one more season before anything is settled in this area. That being said, Cane fans are loyal only by the win loss record, spoiled, out dated with illusions that we are indeed relevant and determined we can compete with the monster public university's which we cannot. To tie this all in our home stadium is 45 miles away from the campus an hour and half drive under perfect conditions in a different County and it's not ours but the Dolphins....
It's been discussed numerous times but seems out of reach. The issue is Coral Gables is one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in the Miami area and that's saying a lot when recently Miami was given the honor as most expensive real estate on square foot basis. Other closer sites have been mentioned such as sharing the soccer stadium with the David Beckham group but the City of Miami turned him down because they got greedy and wanted mucho denaro....So for the foreseeable future we are stuck.
How Miami wasted so much NFL talent in 2014 http://www.foxsports.com/college-football/story/nfl-combine-miami-hurricanes-jameis-winston-marcus-mariota-big-picture-022415 INDIANAPOLIS — One of the more intriguing questions at last weekend's NFL Combine was this: With eight players participating in Indy and many of them projected to go among the top 50 picks, how did Miami still finish the 2014 college football season with a sub-.500 record? "They had one of the best running backs in college football (Duke Johnson); the best tight end (Clive Walford); the fastest wideout (Phillip Dorsett); one of the best O-linemen (Ereck Flowers); one of the top linebackers (Denzel Perryman); and the guy who was the most impressive player at the East-West game (DE Anthony Chickillo), and I know they got a young QB that's a stud too (freshman Brad Kaaya)," one longtime NFL scout told FOX Sports in Indy. "They had more front-line talent than half the teams in the SEC. They didn't have as much talent as Florida State, but they were still pretty loaded. How does that team not win at least nine games in that league?"
the young QB hurt you as much as he helped you and I seem to remember Duke getting hurt quite a bit. Not questioning his heart, he took a lot of legit shots. What's the gap between those top 8 and the next 8? To me, that's what really separates the great teams. The closer that gap, the better you are.
Not shocked at all, UCLA recruiter is suspended with pay... https://twitter.com/Edward__Lewis/status/577508253141069824
