Is this the kid that is cousins with Joe Mathis? Will this have any impact on his recruitment? He's a stud.

Nobody in the nation is close
Nobody in the nation is close
Nobody in the nation is close to USC when it comes to tradition, facilities, academics, girls, and geographic location. They have everything! However, I do believe that Hoke has won a couple of recruiting battles with them. Does anyone know off hand what 2012 and 2013 Michigan commits that had A USC offer? Thanks!

Michigan has superior academics
Michigan has superior academics
Michiagn has superior academics, a richer tradition, and a better coaching staff. I'm not positive on this one, but doesn't Michigan have better facilities as well? I'll give you the weather, and the girls (but just barely) for USC. In general, Michigan's program stacks up to USC's.
2012: Terry Richardson, Eric Magnuson, and James Ross all had USC offers.
2013: LTT and David Dawson both had USC offers

The girls
The girls
The girls at USC are very attractive. I don't think we really compare based on going to A squared for four years and visiting USC. Their sixes are our nines.
That aside, I agree with your other points.

Does anyone else think it would be absolutely pathetic
Does anyone else think it would be absolutely pathetic
to be choosing your school, where you will be spending at least the next three years engrossed in football and classes, based on the alleged hawtness of the local chicks? Yes, I am familiar with the mindset of teenage boys, but I still think that even the weather should be more of a reasonable deciding factor than ladies.

Wow, the hits just keep on coming. Hoke and coaches cannot recruit to save their lives. They let MSU take all of the instate talent like Reshcke and Arnett. Then, they try to recruit nationally like Dantonio but to no prevail. They probably don't even have a pipeline state in NCAA 2013. Fricken' pathetic!!!!

He and Mathis could both go
He and Mathis could both go
He and Mathis could both go to USC. After Mathis came for a visit and had Michigan as his top school then, changed his mind. He seemed to be playing musical chairs with every school he visited as his #1. he seems like the type of kid that doesnt seem loyal. Michigan commits are hardcore team 134 once commited, he just doesnt seem to fit the bill. Some fresh snake oil and Mathis seems like an easy flip. Maybe Cravens isnt like his couzin but ya never know.

why would cravens even consider yacht? the radiation levels in cali and the west coast are dangerously high after the fukushima meltdown. seems to me a recruit would want to be somewhere with low radiation, like Michigan. cancer risk is exponentially higher in cali from the radiation
levels. kid can go where he wants, but the smart choice is Michigan for obvious reasons.

Can't say I'm surprised on
Can't say I'm surprised on
Can't say I'm surprised on this. USC has always seemed to be his favorite. As much of a d-bag as Lane Kiffin is, I'm pretty impressed with the manner in which he's been able to recruit and keep USC in the spotlight. That having been said, I don't think his team is national-title ready next year, and probably won't be for the next few years.
They are loaded with first-string talent, but they will be feeling the pain of lack of depth for the next few years. This is the time when those scholarship reductions are really going to hurt. USC's first team players will be really good, but they will have very little depth behind them. If a Matt Barkley or Robert Woods-like player goes down on injury, the team is virtually screwed.
It's been a lot. Its been a roller coaster that for some reason seemed like it would never get good. But you know what? We kept fighting. It's like that old saying goes, "Those Who Stay Will Be Champions." -David Molk

For all those saying Michigan has better academics
For all those saying Michigan has better academics
You might want to take a look at USC's ranking in US News' list of top universities.
What you will find is USC is #23 over all undergrad wise. Michigan is #28.
This idiotic argument about "education" is overblown by many of you who seem to think it is what is important to recruits. The "education" portion that is important is how the school "helps" the player make sure he passes his classes and stays eligible to play and hopefully leave early for the NFL if he's good enough. Some schools cheat. Some schools, like Michigan don't. Yet, they will give student athletes a ton of help. The type of help that many normal students who pay the excess tuition that Michigan charges do not get.
And there are some that will pick other schools because Michigan doesn't offer the program that the player wants to major in. Levenberry is a prime example where Criminology was the reason he picked FSU when all else was even.

USC has improved a lot in these rankings and Michigan and Northwestern have dropped. Interestingly USC is 4th in education in the PAC 12 behind Stanford, Cal, and UCLA.

Whether or Not Cravens ends up at USC
Hey True Blue. 1st of all. The punishment given to USC was too severe. Considering all that's happened at tOSU and North Carolina. Secondly, from what you've posted here your probably not a very big Trojan fan you should remove John Wayne from your site here because he was a USC graduate. http://www.usc.edu/uscnews/stories/15465.html And finally if Michigan or anybody else from the Big 10 beat USC sometime this century maybe you can finally steal some recruits away from the Trojans. Fight On!

If they've finally stopped cheating.
But at least if they get caught again, with their new management they probably won't be stupid enough to dare the NCAA to do something.
