If we stopped recruiting AJL because of grades, I have a hard time seeing them going after this kid if he didn't have a chance

Just saying

AJL went to prep and still couldn't get his grades straight, If Griffin goes to prep I see him qualifying forsure. Everyone has noted that his grade problems were from a lack of effort his first three years, and his senior year he improved in the classroom heavily

Always wondered what Cam Newton, Vince Young, or Terrel Pryor would have looked like if they played a position other than quarterback. Looks like I will find out soon enough.

Michael Parker might pull a Kevin Hart and pick Miami without a scholarship.

The NEW Ole Miss --> "@JHokanson Miami landed Corn Elder and Derrick Griffin after NSD, neither had even visited Miami campus before signing

To the NCAA, the rest of college football, and most importantly, to the kids who abandoned their hometown.

Would be great if someone could photoshop the kids jacket to the U, anyone?

An A&M fan on the 247 board said that he's gonna need an extremely high SAT score to get in.

Tired of these **** tests. Everybody knows those tests are culturally biased.

If he needs an extremely high SAT score, then he won't get into UM. It has been posted here that UM does not use the sliding scale. If that's true, he can't make up for an poor GPA with a high SAT score.

ESPN 150 tight end Derrick Griffin has signed his letter of intent, but not with the school to which he was long committed, Texas A&M.

The Rosenberg (Texas) Terry product is heading east and will join Miami.

The 6-foot-6, 228-pound four-star prospect, who is the No. 33 player in the ESPN 150, will be sending his letter of intent to Miami on Tuesday, according to his uncle, Scooter McGowan.

Griffin will take a visit to Coral Gables, Fla., this weekend.

"They've been talking to him in the last week," McGowan said. "They were talking to him about basketball too, that they wanted him for basketball [in addition to football] and they were talking to him about bringing 'The U' back."

McGowan said the Hurricanes have stayed in the mix for Griffin for some time and even touched bases with the dual-sport star prior to the U.S. Army All-American Bowl, which Griffin participated in.

Griffin was committed to Texas A&M at the time and did not consider a switch, but the Hurricanes informed him that they would "still be there" if things changed, according to McGowan.

Miami running backs coach Hurlie Brown led the recruitment of Griffin for the Hurricanes, McGowan said.

"I guess after thinking about it for a week, he came to me the other day and said 'I kind of like Miami,' " McGowan said. "So I called [the coaches] and talked to them about it and asked them about it and they were serious about him."

Griffin had been committed to Texas A&M for more than a year, but did not sign with the Aggies on Feb. 6, national signing day, because he did not receive a letter of intent from the Aggies.

There have long been concerns over Griffin's ability to academically qualify, but Griffin has been working diligently this year at improving in the classroom and made the A-B honor roll at Terry in the fall semester.

He recently took the ACT, and McGowan said Griffin will take it up to four more times. In the meantime, he'll continue to work to raise his grade point average to improve his chances to qualify through the NCAA clearinghouse.




that sounds like he's making a much bigger effort then AJL ever did

 

[Problem2]

Those that doubted Hurlie.

He has now gotten Elder and Griffin in two weeks.

Yea I think that is pretty ******* good.

Hurlie Brown doing work already!
