Steve, any big Brother Rice recruits in 14?

Don't know if I want it to other than to steal a commit from MSU

I'm aware of who and what he is.

My man Wiltfong getting absolutely roasted on RCMB. Guess they never heard of don't shoot the messenger. I'd love to see this happen simply for the meltdown over there.

Sounds like he's definitely keeping the door open. I'd say that it could have something to do with a current LB player that makes them think we need another.

Reschke's definitely a very good player, it'd be nice to steal him. Plus, tRCMB meltdown would be hilarious.

Ya kinda weird with the levenberry thing. Only knock on the coaches with recruiting Is it seems they close doors with talented kids. I know they are being honest and I think that is freakin awesome just wish they would keep the line in the water. Of course I don't really know how they handle it, just speculation

strange offer at a strange time. I really have no idea. guess we're going to have to wait until next week after the state championship game to see whats the deal.

Number please?? Interesting offer that's for sure. Saw someone mention keeping the doors open on kids. Goes back to the point i brought up a few weeks ago. You were in good shape with the LB that's committed to Clemson and told Anzalone not to visit, but are now offering the local boy. Don't know what to make of this offer. Looks like your QB position is in much better hands than i had anticipated for next year, congrats been impressed from what little i have watched the last 2 weeks..Beat OSU. thanks..

So I ask the question to you and others, what should the coaches have done?

Here are the facts. Coming into the 2013 class the coaches knew what positions had to be filled and the numbers per position to fill with. They also knew the current roster and knew they wanted to fill specific positions at LB. they communicated to every LB they offered that they were only taking 2 LBs.

So if you wanted the coaches to keep a line in the water by that I assume you mean let anzalone and o'daniel visit. Lets say o'daniel visited and now was ready to commit. The coaches already had Gedeon in the wings and McCray on board so they wouldn't accept o'daniels commitment because that, at the time, would be overloading at that position because o'daniel projects to WLB. So by telling a kid no thanks after he spent his own money to visit, you don't think that would burn a bridge quicker than being upfront and telling him they are full? I have a feeling the coaches didn't like the way Levenberry jerked around during his recruitment so perhaps the red flags got mounted around his name on their board.

This most recent offer, he isn't projecting WLB, likely more SLB. So to star69 post, we turned down kids like o'daniel and anzalone because they were WLB, a position that reschke does not project to so the question is moot.

Do we know that they told people not to visit at all? Couldn't the message have been something like, "We are full at your position for the moment. You may not want to spend your money coming for a visit since we currently have no spots for you, but if you do you're welcome."

Thanks for the input Copemoney/Housedivided/Bigpapi
