Passing on a talented skill position  player  like him and picking up a mediocre player just because we "need" that players position is probably why we will always be mediocre. Hopefully we make room for Erik

Agree

I'm not sure. How recent was this?

I don't remember exactly when I read it, seems a month or so ago, about when people said all the crystal balls were trending our way. I don't know it to be fact, that's for sure, just message talk.

It's only right that I remind people they were wrong when they were the ones that basically called me stupid for making a prediction
But you are wrong, so you look silly. He was dm'ing back and forth with a recruit committed elsewhere and accidentally tweeted it rather than send it as a DM. He was actually recruiting FOR the Hogs.

Well I'm not the one that did it. I drew the conclusion that any logical person would draw from his mistake, so you can't blame me too much for that. Still doesn't make me feel all warm and fuzzy when I look at how much he entertains other fanbases.

Oh ok. If that is the case then I'll rescind my statement. Otherwise, you can't pass on a dynamic playmaker like him for a kid with offers to Pinto State University and Ricepig Tech just because we are low on bodies at that position...

Erik Ezukanma (Or whatever it is) isn't going to get an offer.  We are not looking for WR's in this class.  As repeated often, this is a very small class, and WR just isn't a need this year.

I'm pretty sure he already has an offer.

We had 15 until they moved Dylan Hays to defense and that's not including Ty Clary who will be on scholarship sometimes in the near future

yes but the post I quoted and made the 15 comment was talking about that number getting back down to numbers like we had a couple years ago.

You can when you have 7-8 more just like him. 

Also, every recruit we have has power 5 offers.  Most have multiple SEC offers.  Who should we kick out to take a commit at a position where we have plenty of talented bodies already?

Sorry, got you confused with the other poster.

You have many other options besides kicking someone off

This is my feelings as well. I'd rather have an elite player where we are already stacked than take a body who won't ever play here. It's been proven by Ellis and greenlaw never leaving the field even though we had other scholarship players at LB. Just because you are here, doesn't mean you will play even if the starter is in a wheel chair and on an oxygen machine. If the coaches think you aren't D 1 material after you get here. You won't even play against nichols state.
