Class of 2019 DE Adisa Isaac (NY) Committed to Penn St

[rocklloyd]

I had lunch with a couple friends who are in athletics at A&M today and they mentioned Adissa probably will get squeezed out of a Scholarship to College Station. They "love the depth and need to use last 4 spots on need positions. I think its down to Penn St 60% Syracuse 40%. Also it seems Adissa had a unofficial visit to Cuse in Feburary 2018 for a basketball game. Is anybody on here plugged in with our Athletic department to confirm?

Makes sense given his proximity to here

Adisa has visited SU campus many times. The OVs this past weekend didn't even stay for the second half of the BB game. This staff is selling football.

Hmm. His HS coach “dissuading” him from taking a visit to Syracuse?

Always looking out for the best interests of the kids ...

This is one of the reasons Craig Forth, who had a similar family situation, decided to go to Syracuse. It worked out pretty well for him.

Interesting most schools sell the school. Nothing more exciting than watching and cheering a buzzer beating win. If they left early what a wasted opportunity to let the recruits revel with the fans and current students

I didn't say they weren't selling the school. I just don't think the emphasis is using a BB game to recruit anymore.

they missed a hell of a second half. Feel like that buzzer beater crowd eruption could have given them a sliver of what it would sound like beating Clemson in the dome.

"Adisa has visited SU campus manu times" that is really encouraging if true." A kid driving 3 or 4 hours or paying for a plane to visit a school on his own dime gives you a indication of interest.

I'm getting a good feeling here... Just a gut feeling... No inside info...

The recruits were probably there to see the FB team at h-t for HCDB's remarks about the CWB.

Im clinging to the fairytale that dino brings his buddy blissett back into the light and that increases our chances

So your telling me there is a chance? I’ll take those odds

Agreed, the relationship between his current coach and the DL coach at PSU is pretty much all I needed to know. That’s a game changer and a deal closer

Yup heard the same

 

[CA Monk]

If we do get this kid and those SC kids I’m gonna plotz. And I don’t even know what plotz is. But I’ll do it.

His coach isn't looking out for the best interest of his best player. Thats for sure.

I get why people hate PSU, trust me I really do. Can anyone ague with the amount of kids on the DL they get into the NFL and they really do have top of the line facilities. Of course I really do want this kid to pick us but would not blame him for going to PSU.

I mean hell, Nassib's brother went there as a walk on and he was drafted into the league.

They do D Line pretty well. But historically we aren't exactly slouches either. We've put some big names into the league. If he's a great talent, he can get into the league virtually anywhere he goes.

No, I just don't like speaking in absolutes with high school kids.

Trying to play the game, "convincing the board why _________ recruit will pick SU over ________" is always a favorite. The logical arguments could be applied to many recruits around the country. Like, "why wouldn't every offensive player in the country want to play in our offense in a dome"?

This is why, spending time trying to rationalize why a recruit would choose us over _______, is futile. There are so many personal factors to these decisions and every recruit is different.

Easy when all the best kids go there. If Adisa gets to the league it won’t be because of pedo state.

Well that was fun while it lasted
