Recruiting Update 6-18

[DMoney]

If Travis Johnson develops into an H-Back does anyone think that could push Kerr to OT?

JMO, I think Kerr stays at TE. We really could have used Corey White last year as a blocker.

 

[jevoasis]

Any more info on spots 'becoming open'? Sure seems like the staff is going after more guys than we currently have numbers for.

Oregon is Bostwick's "dream school"

lulz, show me he can even point it out on a map, then I might be worried

Let's see...

To get from PSL to Eugene, Oregon you're looking at about 10+ hours door to door at a min. 2 Hour drive to MCO and then you have to connect somewhere vwhile flying clear across and up the country. It's a days travel each way. Just saying.

Peter thanks for the update on Bostwick. I'm really hoping he ends up a Miami Hurricane.

 

[Cane Steve]

Thanks for the update. Hope we can turn it around with Alexander somehow.

Wishful thinking but not happening.

 

[Bigtip]

I don't have a good feeling about our chances with either of them but you'd have to think that we have a shot at Alexander due to location and some history with his school. though the early UT commitment is very strange and a red flag or sorts

It's also 2 hours from PDX to Eugene. The trip sucks

Yeah but if you are connecting through a hub you can fly into Eugene. But yes, the trip sucks. Easier to get from Miami to Paris or Rio.

Really wish we could've got Alexander on board because he and Tracy would've been a awesome corner tandem...

 

[jw410]

I don't think we lose out that much without VH3 or Alexander... seriously you cannot miss what you don't have. Now if he has a Patrick Peterson(johnson) type career then all bets are off. I still think our focus needs to be on the OL/DL then S then TE... the other positions will be the focal point for 2014.

 

[ImU2daDEF...CLF]

As far as not being in it for Alexander or Hargreaves, last year showed this staff is not to be counted out for any recruit they want.

 

[UMFarArcher]

I know you guys are talking about PDX and PSL to Eugene, but I just don't think you can get there from here.

That place is sooooo green! 'Course lots and lots of rain, and that green is fungi growing on everything.

 

[Port Knox]

I happen to be a fan of the green fungi!

Impossible to know, IMO. Will depend on his body. I could see him filling out to be an OT quite easily.

Not sure the staff wants Alexander

I can see him getting to tackle size, but a UM tackle these days is 315 to 330.

I remember reading that the staff asked him to come to camp and compete...and that Alexander refused. Do you think this is accurate? Is this why the staff isnt as high on him as everyone else is?

I've heard the staff isn't extremely high on him because of non-football reasons, so yes that could be part of it
