Recruiting tactics

Post by maxduck »

ESPN story on the lies recruiters tell recruits.

http://espn.go.com/college-sports/recru ... ness-usual
(Jalen) Cope-Fitzpatrick, for instance, heard plenty of negative talk about Oregon.

"I heard the players are really snooty, because they get so much free stuff from Nike," he said.

Not true, according to Cope-Fitzpatrick. He visited Oregon and liked it.

"You really don't know until you get there," he said.

Maybe not. According to many U$C posters Kiffin would prefer another OL over Cope-Fitzpatrick. Many expect him to be a Bruin.

Nope. Kiffin wouldn't need to say something like that. Almost positive it was Tosh who is known for being probably the biggest negative recruiter in the conference.

Notice how Cope-Fitzpatrick is visiting Colorado and UCLA, but not Cal. Cal really needs a TE in this class too after striking out on multiple targets.

Some recruiting tactics, while within the rules, border on bizarre -- like the coach who told Texas-committed receiver Cayleb Jones he could go to school five minutes from the Playboy Mansion, a thinly veiled suggestion about whom he might meet on the way to class.
Lame, is that you again? This guy is such a goon.

Nope Slick Rick. The Playboy Mansion is in Holmby Hills which is the wealthiest part of Westwood. USC is probably about 30 minutes away.

You guys are obsessed with Kiffin :lol:
