They don't want it to seem like they are being pressured into it

But they are. We all know that they are. And if they kept the statue up, there would inevitably be a riot around it during a game day this fall and they would be preceived as squarely at fault for not bringing it down.

As an SC guy, OR is elite

However, they still almost always have to take SC's leftovers for recruiting. SC has a chainlink fence up around California and a Brick wall around SoCal. Mcquay and Hargreaves will go else where because SC's remaining spots will be spent on more pressing positions.

Haha, yeah i know. It depends

It depends, are you a guy in your 20's trying to go out every night and get some baby doll down by the water? Then Hermosa is the obvious choice.

Are you a guy in your 30's with a wife and a child and want a quiet but nice beach town in LA county where you can let your kid play outside and go down by the beach without fear of them running into whores and drunks? Redondo is the better choice.

 

So it depends on where you are in life I would say.

I agree completely

glad you think so highly of my zip code

I changed it because he recently moved and I was unaware of it

Sorry I only stalk our coach every OTHER week. 

 

And your guess would be wrong. I live in Redondo a block from the ocean. 

Tucker is 2014 recruit

FYI

Lane just takes them to the beach house in Manhattan Beach

and it's all over. 

If we really want Mcquay, he is ours, no questions

Massington will get a medical hardship. 

No, its real life

Real people make big promises to other real people all the time. Sometimes those people are coaches and players of American football at the college or highschool level of competition. 

Thats a good point

The jury is still out on this question. My hypothesis might (and probably will) be proven trash when Treadwell commits.

I hadn't thought about your other point of how long Hoke has been recruiting these elite guys. A significant point considering that these type of elite players have been on the radar of major programs longer than Hoke could have been recruiting them. 

 

I think it also has to do with the fact that other major programs seem more willing to make extravegant promises to players concerning the offensive plan being built around them that Hoke and Co. seem unwilling to make. 

 

I think its the mentality of the coaching staff

I feel like our coaches have a grind it out, defense-first, victory in the trenches mentality. This works wonders for Defensive recruiting and Line-man recruiting.

It doesnt feel like a doctrine which emphasizes high-flying offensive attacks seen as being attractive to the home-run threat RB's and the take-the-top-off-the-defense WR's of the world.

 

Kids are just doing their best to look out for their football futures in the only way they know how.

Also referring to Hoke as

" The Greatest coach in college football" good pump by Whitlock today. Ball State guy. Props

Tedy Bruschi was a 3rd round pick

If Michigan had an entire team of 3rd round talent they would crush everyone no problem.

It's not whether you win or lose

It's not whether you win or lose. It's whether you cover the spread. 10 1/2, take the points.
