He picked Nebrska, we needed him.

[Hogman2]

He needs a heavy coat!  If he does NOT WANT the Hogs, we do not need him!

[NeverYield]

Too bad.  We missed out on this one.  Good luck to the young man and his career in the Big 10...

[downsouthhawg72]

I know thats right. I hope he's ready to play in all that snow. every1 is not born to be a hawg so we will rock on to the next 1. He could've stepped right in & played next year. i guess that really don't & didn't mean anything. I think we need to go ahead & give a Schollie to Weslie since he has hawg blood running through his vains. Speed kills & he has it.

[mhuff]

Hopefully we are on the kid from Virginia. Is his name Wilkinson? This kid has not allowed areception all year....very impressive

I'll take Grade A athletes, who didn't grow up as Hog fans, over Grade C athletes, who grew up as Hog fans, anyday of the week.

And you will get yourself an 8-4 ballclub on a consistent basis if you are content with that. Willy Robinson won't keep his job with Grade C athletes anyway.

[Spider-Pig]

Best of luck to him

Please no bashing

Read it again. I said I'll take the Grade A athlete.

[downsouthhawg72]

Brandon Burlsworth was that same Grade C walk on, look how he turned out. You don't have to take a whole ball club of them but some1 with the speed of Weslie is worth taking & coaching him up. Jamal Anderson turned out pretty good also & he wasn't that same grade A. Kevin Williams wasn't a Grade A coming out of Fordyce, he acutally played TE but got coached up at DT.

Arkansas could not beat out this deciding factor: click me

[booogaga]

wish the kid the best of luck, our staff will now move on to the next guy.

BFF?

Maybe we can make room for him too...

[WildHawg]

Any idea who the next guy might be?? Outside of Jackson and Wesleigh Foster (who is in truth more of a backup plan than a top priority recruit) I don't know too many more CB's we are on.

Well if it was a package deal I'm glad we didn't offer his buddy because while a 6'0 193 lb LB might make it in the Big12 that won't cut it in the SEC.

[jackflash]

Wish we had gotten him. At least he didn't wait until NSD. BP and his staff still have November, December and January to find some else.

Foster's speed doesn't make up for the fact he can't tackle/break a tackle/stay up after contact.

Down to us and Bo pelini for a defensive recruit.... We have arrived on the national scene. Soo refreshing even of he didn't come.

[Wildhog]

It's time to get rid of Willy.  Or at least get another secondary coach and just let Willy be DC.  He's hurting us in recruiting, and his scheme isn't exactly doing us any favors.  Our secondary is absolutely murdering us, and we can't get any top recruits in that department if the recruits don't believe in their coach.

And before anyone cites the '09 "#1 DB class," Crim, Leon and Stewart are gone after this year, Gordon transferred, Jerry Mitchell has amounted to absolutely nothing, and Winston is about as physical as my dead grandmother.

we're 2nd in the conference in pass defense. Our defensive problems are with our front 7s ability to stop the run, particularly a running qb.

The problem is the schemes developed to stop the running QB's. That's Willy's responsibility.

[mmhogs17]

Now attention turns to Blake Countess.

[KINGTUSK]

We really needed him, wish this kid the best.

[hogsmaster]

Very disappointing but let's move on the next option.

[Ben Steiger]

Well if it was a package deal I'm glad we didn't offer his buddy because while a 6'0 193 lb LB might make it in the Big12 that won't cut it in the SEC.

If you check his offer list, we offered his buddy, as well.

Shoot. I was really excited about getting Jackson.

[HgH]

NEXT!!!!!!!!

[Tomhog™]

And this is why I put very little stock in "silent" commits.

[masterhog]

Why the Willy bashing? He is a good coach and doing the best he can with the talent he has to work with. Hopefully this recruiting class will beef up the defensive side of the ball.
