I think you ran with something I wasn't really saying. I was not even implying there were no good players from WNY, I know different. I was saying that WNY and NYC are not the same recruiting areas, and at this point the new staff as well as most of the recruiting sites believe NYC, NJ, and CT has a greater density of better overall talent. Your son and his cousin may well be transcendent talents, and it seems we decided not to pursue one of them, but as we've discussed before, there are plenty of kids in both WNY and NYC that have  turned their back on SU too. One of them is currently our RB coach. Wheatley is a terrible reference, but I don't think he was giving us a look even when his dad coached at SU. Gronk's father went to SU and that didn't stop him from going out west to what he thought was a better option. The one I remember from back in the day was Dorsey Levins. We've had plenty of NYS kids, WNY, CNY, etc. we will have our pick of them again, as we did in the late 80's early 90's when we win as we did then and become the equal or better option to Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nebraska, etc. For now all we offer over them is PT. No offense to your nephew, but BC is not a better option, but it seems our current staff may not have thought he was what they needed to get there. I hope the staff sees you son's potential, and he sees SU's if they do.
