As others have been saying a while now, if Marshall is a top school of choice, it means your grades are complete cow dung, and won't qualify at schools with real academic standards.

Why not go after him and let him go Prep? Unless its a AJ Leggett situation where he is not willing to do that

Miami didn't want AJ, even if he went prep. Totally different cases

Are you saying that unlike AJ, Golden wants Coley and is willing to wait for him should he volunteer to go prep?

BTW i've read rumors that even prep wont help him, that JC is is his only route.

Well, imho I think this could be like the Leggett situation where Marshall approaches you and tells you that not only do your grades not matter but you can start right away, and even though it's Marshall, he will still be playing FBS ball.

Peter could you explain the Leggett situation? I was never aware of Miami not wanting him. I remember he was committed late into the season last year. Was it talent or purely academics?

Some kids don't want to prep I think Coley is like Leggett and will go to a school he can even if it's the likes of Marshall.

Its all on this kid. If he gets the work done in the classroom, he'll be a 'Cane, based on everything Im hearing. I truly hope this kid sees a better future for himself then going to Marshall. Put in the work so you can go where you want to go. Arguably the most electric receiver in the country.

I wouldn't pencil him down in my mock class if I didn't believe we get him. We have a great shot.

Yeah what was the deal with AJ? I heard Miami coaches approached him and said he could not get in b/c all his transfers and he decomitted...did not want to go prep

I don't want to beat a dead horse with AJ, but let me try to break it down as simply as I can. I will start by saying that I know AJ very well personally so this information comes straight from him. He committed to Miami back when Shannon was still here. He had a good relationship with Shannon and then de-committed/committed to FSU after the Golden staff had been here for a few months a did not give him a single call. The new staff began talking to him again once he committed to FSU, so he committed back to Miami. Through the summer and into the NCAA investigation news, the coaches from Miami weren't calling him and he was the one initiating all conversations with the staff. They had never hinted to him that he would have a potential problem with his grades, even though he knew it might be as well as several other members of his family. He took the ACT and scored a 22 on it, which is a good score, so he thought he was in the clear with Miami. Again, throughout this entire situation he would be the one calling coach Williams, not vice versa. They never made it seem as though he was an important recruit to them. Then, out of the blue, they told him that he wouldn't be able to get in for this year, but they gave him the option to go prep. AJ felt disrespected that they really didn't talk to him throughout the process and then waited to the end to let him know. So he kind of felt like "why would I do them a favor after they screwed me"... hence why he went to Marshall.

So instead of going to any other school he chose Marshall? This isn't towards you Peter but I call BS with AJ telling the truth about what happened.

His best friend is going there next year and the two wanted to play with each other. He had a great relationship with Doc Holliday and his position coach. He likes the idea of being the small fish in a big pond. AJ didn't tell this all to me at the end, we talked about it as the process went on.
 
Eh. AJ can play, no doubt. But guys that bounce around like that...SM to Booker T to gulliver back to SM.... Always a bad sign
