How close are we landing these two on the commitment list?

Thought Daniels was very high on us but hasn't pulled the trigger yet.
 
Time to move on from them. I'm sure we'll get a 5.5 to replace them.
 
What's the deal with Rahyme? People state he has a bad attitude. He's a LB, don't we want our LBs to have bad attitudes? Because someone is a punk doesn't mean we shouldn't recruit him. I think sometimes the problem with our teams is we don't have enough punks on it.

If the kid is asking for money or if he is breaking laws, then that's one thing. If that's the case, state it on the board. No need to protect a kid asking for money from schools. Let that be known.

Icy Hot to the face isn't cool.
 
Time for us to pay up.

Yeah, then suddenly the NCAA will actually start punishing football programs for illegal benefits, that would be just our luck. The recruiting system is way too easy to cheat in but equally as easy to get caught doing so. Do we really want that?

Sadly that is the nature of the beast though..

Everything but flat out paying them would be ok.

Everyone cheats by paying players except Nebraska and that is why we cant recruit. And if a player is no longer recruited by us, he must be broken goods or has taken cash or his parents take the money. We have a right as fans to hear all of the dirt on each recruit and know why and what has happened. Forget the rule that coaches cant comment on recruits. It is vitally important for us as fans to know all of this so we dont have to speculate.

Did I get this about right?

No way, they just pay your bills directly and your parents bills.

Don't forget tattoos, loaner cars, free shoes, tutors to do your school work, etc.

The thing here is that a coach doesn't have to actually hand over money at some of these places, they just offer the platform for players to gain illegal benefits and then turn a blind eye.

College football is a dirty cut throat industry...

By definition "icy hot to the face" is cool and it's also hot.

I am sure I am way out # but something like that I could live with. Yes its a dick move but we need some hardcore kids instead of candy asses that get pushed around by Iowa and seem to like it. I want a kid who hates losing so much that he'd want to throw icy hot on an opponents face. Granted, I want a kid who can who can learn to refrain from such actions but I wouldn't mind seeing a Personal Foul every know and again for anger issues.

I don't think it was solely that. There was some scuttle about what enticements Salesian might be using to get some of its players.
 
While I don't endorse Icy Hot to the face, I really hope that isn't the reason he's no longer in the picture. That would be insane, unless it is just one of many things in his past, that in and of itself is nowhere near justification to cut him off.
 
I think it was more of our coaches wondering how serious RJ actually was in Nebraska later in the process. Not going to waste time on someone who wasn't going to come here. Just my opinion.

That's fine and I totally understand that and hope that to be the case.
