2009 NCAA recruiting thread

[Guest]

I'm shocked that Alshon Jeffrey switched from Southern Cal to South Carolina.

 

I've heard some things about USCw's class falling apart (relatively) at the last minute, but that shocker wasn't even part of the equation.

 

Yeah, there were questions about all 3 of their big WRs. Looks like Devon Flourney will stick with USC over UCLA but Randall Carroll might flip to UCLA.

 

Vontaze Burfict officially switched from USC to ASU today.

 

Byron Moore, who decommitted from USC and was looking at Notre Dame or Colorado, signed his NLI with USC today.

[Mephistopheles]

Jelani Jenkins signed with UF and to spite Stuy, debose also signed.

[Mephistopheles]

Rumor is NuKeese Richardson to Tenn. He was waiting to see if Debose was switching or not.

 

I'm hoping you're right.

 

hes staying at UF.

[Hosak8]

Dew...

 

There's more to come, I think. RIvals is reporting Janzen Jackson is waiting to sign, reportedly because UT is really in this one.

 

Eddie Lacy looks to be headed to UT, and the states top prospect for 2010 (Jacquez Smith) commited to UT today.

Kapoeli HS (Kapoeli, HI) OT Stanley Hasiak signs an NLI with UCLA. He had committed to UCLA in October, decommitted in favor of Berkeley last month and is back. :) This is a big get for the Bruins.

Manti Te'o to Notre Dame. :shock:

Manti Te'o to Notre Dame. :shock:

 

Watched that live. Love a kid that wears a blue & gold lei on stage but doesn't make a big production taking it off and putting on another team's colors.

[Tracer Bullet]

Any word on Starling?

[Guest]

Wish he'd have come to Westwood but, hey, USC loses Burfict and Te'o in two hours. :)

I just hope they lose Starling too (I'll trade Moore for Starling).

[shnsajax]

This day is usually boring for Texas outside of Perrilloux and Darrell Scott, who chose to sit the bench at Colorado this year behind another true freshman.

[Tracer Bullet]

apparently Starling's going to SC. Lose 2 LBs, get 2 Safeties. Whatever.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Well Wingo is staying at Arkansas, but somewhat unexpectedly (in my opinion anyways), Mizzou landed Chris Freeman, a 6-9, 350 lb OL. I love it.

 

Now let's get Sheldon to sign that dotted line...

 

I'm going to take credit for Freeman signing since we made a point to chant his name to him across the student section at the basketball game during his visit.

 

And Richardson is a Tiger, score.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I love EDSBS.

 

Oh, 5 star tackle Bobby Massie toyed with an Alabama hat before donning an Ole Miss hat. Birds in the shape of bricks will fly through your window soon. Who’s throwing them? JUSTICE, THAT’S WHO. [/alabamafans]

Awesome.

 

And thank god for Richardson. Overall a pretty solid class.

Both are going to USC. But I'd want Te'o of the three.

 

ETA: I meant to post this about 15 minutes ago but never clicked Submit. I see you already posted it.

I did too. And Te'o will be ND's starting Mike LB next year, I imagine. But pulling one of those 2 safeties, esp Starling, would have been huge too.

It seems we already have LOIs from everyone we're going to. Is Kirkpatrick the only other person we're even a longshot to land?

[snoodmonger]

No surprises on the KU front. A very good class by our standards, coming in at #29 per Rivals.

[CubInOK]

Randle will likely sign with LSU.

[Andy]

Te'o is a huge get for Weis. This class is possibly his worst since arriving at ND, but Te'o makes it a bit better.

Stonewall Jackson HS (Manassas, VA) athlete Damien Thigpen picks UCLA over Notre Dame.

 

Much needed speed for the Bruins.

[dew1679666265]

Eddie Lacy has signed with Bama.

 

Dang.

Great news on Smith. Hopefully we get Jackson as well.

[RedFlash]

Sorry but dew beat me to it, because I was in class.

 

Dew, you guys are having a really good day with Myles ( :( ) and Teague going your way. Congrats on those two young men. Great players, and if Gordon qualifies academically..........you guy will be a nice team net yr, provided you coach can you know....coach.
