Noted. And point taken. Though with elite recruits I doubt their future plans are as tied up in education as other things. But still good I guess
Amen. Don't get the cal love. Minus the location
It's pretty simple in general terms
1. Location
2. Top academics
3. NFL talent Aaron rodgers, Desean Jackson, Marshawn Lynch, Jahvid Best, Tony Gonzalez, Nnamdi Asomugha
4. Brand spanking new facilities
5. Coaching stability
6. Tosh Lupoi- Best recruiter in the country
7. Ron Gould for running backs has had 1000 yard rushers in 9 of 10 seasons under Tedford.
8. Eric Kiesau for wide receivers -
As for Diggs
Cal has 3 scholarship receivers for 2012
Keenan Allen- Allen is gone after 2012
Maurice Harris -Never played a down
Terrance Montgomery- Will never likely play
He loves Desean Jackson
Kiseau was Jackson's WR coach at Cal
For the record,
I don't think Diggs will end up at Cal.
79 wins in ten years or 7.9 wins per year which is not bad considering in the prior 40 years Cal averaged 4.53 wins per year.
I'm just explaining why these things happen. I'm not trying to hold anything over any other program or even suggest that Cal is better than anywhere else. I certainly have no input to recruits as to where they go and they can see what goes on themselves and they make their own decisions.
With Shannon I would love to see us get into it again.
If not, I desperately hope he is not at Florida.
He is killing it in practices at AA. He may be a superstar as a true freshman.
We dropped off the radar when Weis left. The only reason we still have a chance is his family is close with Jelani Jenkins's family. We may have a chance once we get an OC but would face a big uphill battle at this point.
Diggs said he will no longer decide on National Signing Day because he wants wait and see what move Muschamp makes.-ESPN UF took a hit with Weis but Brian White or Jay Norvell becoming OC is key atp.
when the hell is muschamp gonna announce the OC? its not gonna be after 2/2 is it?
you think jordan jenkins is a gator with all the LB's bama already has?
Who is the 411? Must be a cal fan but that was great info. VOTP you seem to bring solid info as well, and I was not mocking you, I just do not think Stefon cares about academics.
Desean Jackson is really just about the whole answer. When you can follow in the footsteps of an idol and be featured it is attractive. I think Diggs is one of the 5 best offensive players in this class and I would rather have him than Cordarelle Patterson. I would have traded Redding and Pig for him, but Redding was already told to look elsewhere and real life is not a video game like NCAA 2012.
We do not have a player like Black Mamba and we do not have a player like Diggs. The good news is, neither do very many of the teams we face.
Yes, I'm Cal fan. I do appreciate UT and its role as a national powerhouse and I also appreciate this website and layout of individual recruit threads. I also follow recruiting beyond just the Pac-12
