Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 4931431, member: 40"] What's puzzling about it? The kid PLAYED for Fran Brown, the #1 recruiter in college football. Recruiting is a two-way street, no argument there. I'm just a bit surprised that we wouldn't have more traction with former Georgia DBs, given Brown's direct connection. It has nothing to do with "all the 4 and 5 star kids will want to come here." This is a specific kid who played for our new head coach. I'm just surprised that Fran Brown didn't have more "pull" with him. And I also readily acknowledge that maybe Brown didn't think he was good enough, or NIL demands were too high, or any other of a variety of reasons for why this kid ended up at PSU. But there were a few board insiders who indicated that this kid WAS an SU lean at one point, and it never seemed to materialize. I don't think we even got him on campus, which I do find puzzling, given those early indications. [/QUOTE]
