Word is that we might visit Cal and Clemson. Lets hope he stays away from Cal because I could see us losing McCain, Scales, and King to Cal.

I wouldn't exactly be a happy camper either, but I'm just trying to give this news some silver lining.mdm0302 wrote:i might come unglued if we loose mccain allen and king all to cal...Tray Dub wrote:If it's any consolation, Allen has a bad weight room work ethic and his skills very well might not translate over to college ball.

So the rating services that have him as high as #2 in the nation are that wrong?Tray Dub wrote:If it's any consolation, Allen has a bad weight room work ethic and his skills very well might not translate over to college ball. Key word being might.
I'm saying it's possible. Five stars don't pan out all the time. But he very well could become a great safety. He just needs to change his attitude towards weightlifting.wlduck wrote:So the rating services that have him as high as #2 in the nation are that wrong?Tray Dub wrote:If it's any consolation, Allen has a bad weight room work ethic and his skills very well might not translate over to college ball.

Not sure what was confusing about my first post but my bad. My source is someone who's been on teams with him. He's got a ridiculous amount of talent but does not like putting in work in the weight room. Take it for what its worth. It's not speculation but I understand you being skeptical.QuackSince82 wrote:Dude, I'm sorry but it was hard enough translating your first post. Word is you have no proof or source for what you say. But speculation is always appreciated on this board and if you're right I'm glad I heard about it now instead of being crushed by it on signing day.
If Allen goes to Cal and we loose out on the NC group that definitely sucks but if Tray Dub is right (and he usually is) maybe it's for the better. Hopefully that attitude is something coach Radcliffe could easily take care of.

And I certainly don't want the whole NC group to go elsewhere. In fact I'd love to have Allen along with the rest of them. I'm just trying to put some silver lining on possibly having Allen go to a Pac 10 school.
