LSU Recruiting Nkemdiche with Shaq
http://espn.go.com/college-sports/recruiting/football/story/_/id/890791…
LSU has Shaq show up to dinners for players on recruiting visits, I guess it makes a big impression.

...and more stylish too.
February 2nd, 2013 at 1:47 PM ^
Sometimes I get a feeling.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:03 PM ^
Much better than Jalen Roses blazer colors.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:02 PM ^
while stupid grin comes across his face...
February 2nd, 2013 at 1:43 PM ^
"Come to LSU, and you, too, can star in Icy Hot commercials someday!"
February 2nd, 2013 at 1:53 PM ^
or a shitty movie like Kazzam
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:02 PM ^
Tell me you didn't cry during this scene. Liar
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:09 PM ^
That was like watching a rap in a spaghetti western.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:19 PM ^
And the great thing was, in the mid-'90s you could walk down the street in Shaq's purple genie outfit and you'd be totally stylish.
February 2nd, 2013 at 3:38 PM ^
Than Bellomy on 3rd and long.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:40 PM ^
Kazaam is a cinematic masterpiece and you know it.
February 2nd, 2013 at 1:49 PM ^
Free shaq packs..recruiting violation?
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:01 PM ^
Do they come with the liquid cheese dipping sauce or no?
February 2nd, 2013 at 1:51 PM ^
him with their redshirted Miss Americas! Let's see what works best.....
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:01 PM ^
34 and not very good at sports anymore but now i really want to go to ole miss...
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:04 PM ^
The way Ole Miss is recruiting, I'm not sure you've got much of a chance, slugger.
The good news is Sparty will always hold a spot for your type
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:16 PM ^
For not forcing me to be good at sports. Look what I'm missing
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:49 PM ^
Even with the refund gap I'm in.
February 2nd, 2013 at 1:53 PM ^
What can Ole Miss offer besides Eli Manning?
February 2nd, 2013 at 1:55 PM ^
Ahhh, that pic above me is all they need.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:00 PM ^
..ever heard of someone named John Grisham? Kinda embarrassing for you, dude.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:16 PM ^
And Barry Hannah.
February 2nd, 2013 at 4:45 PM ^
Money and vaginas. Two powerful motivators for men ages 14 - 135.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:09 PM ^
Don't forget Shaq also made the blockbuster Steel!
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:17 PM ^
And who could forget Kazaam
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:25 PM ^
everyone
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:36 PM ^
And I only saw a minute of while channel surfing. One truly awful movie/video.
February 2nd, 2013 at 3:44 PM ^
You have it on Blue Ray.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:29 PM ^
equal to Roundtree's violation of tweeting to a HS recruit in the bazaar NCAA handbook?
Crazy life for these 18 year-olds.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:29 PM ^
Who could forget about Blue Chips, starring Nick Nolte, Shaquille O'Neal and Anfernee "Penny" Hardaway.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:35 PM ^
touch him in the same places where he puts his icy hot packs?
February 2nd, 2013 at 3:17 PM ^
Yet none of the recruits can understand what he says when he mumbles those locker room interviews
February 2nd, 2013 at 5:27 PM ^
Come on you didn't hear:
"We are going to win period. P-E-R-iriod."
and
"I believe I am the greatest player on earf, yes, earf."
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:47 PM ^
have Tom Brady "show up" at a dinner with some big-name recruit? (all right probably not going to happen - but how about Charles Woodson?)
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:54 PM ^
I know Eddie George often accompanies Urban and recruits to dinners in Columbus.
I think it would be great to use a celebrity alum like Desmond Howard, Jalen Rose or eventually Woodson or Brady. Im sure it could make a big impact on recruiting.
February 2nd, 2013 at 2:56 PM ^
I know Tom Brady called Shane Morris on a couple occasions.
February 2nd, 2013 at 3:06 PM ^
Probably to tell him Giselle, has some hot young relatives!
February 2nd, 2013 at 4:46 PM ^
Beware Mr. Nkemdiche. If you go to any other school, Shaq may be asking you how his ass tastes.
February 2nd, 2013 at 5:54 PM ^
Can somebody clear up what the rules are in regard to using former athletes/celebrities to sway uncommitted prospects?
In The Journey a few weeks ago, Victor Oladipo recalls a time when he was being recruited and went to a dinner at the white house for school and was magically seated with Dwayne Wade (coached be Crean at Marquette) and Antwaan Randle-El at a dinner and somehow ended up going to IU. If the ethos of regulations on recruiting is to make the playing field level, this certainly seems to violate that...
February 2nd, 2013 at 10:25 PM ^
Remember usc had to quit having dinner at Papadikis's restraunt as they always happened to have former players show up and then the second thing they got in trouble for was having a commitment ceremony....
Osu got in trouble for having Chris Carter bump into recruits at osu games ....
This happens all the time though...........

So why is it OK for Snoop to tell USC recruits that he'll get them into the music business?
February 3rd, 2013 at 10:46 AM ^
Now we just need Tom Brady to show up at our recruit's dinners and we will be set. Or maybe James Earl Jones, I know when I saw him show up on our orientation video it had me sold
