[CuseLegacy]

Gentlemen you are taking this thread into the recruiting weeds. Back to Mesidor please.

He has a Pitt visit this weekend and they're have been no recent WVU tweets so where did they come from ?

Looking at tweets all I have seen are at home and at school visits from GT, Pitt and Syracuse. No WVU.

 

[Orijinal]

I don't recall seeing it in the thread: has he visited WVU? Does he have a visit lined up?

Fairly certain we feel fine taking multiple DTs.

I think that's an understatement

Or DBs with a commitment to S&C

Any news on Mesidor status?

Are we still a possibility?

We don't seem to be in it anymore. Everything points to WVU

 

[rackman18]

Didn't Mesidor watched the SU Defense put the "smackdown" on the Mountaineers in the Camping World Bowl?

 

[bnoro]

Not counting on it.

 

[blizz]

Sad.

Tom Briggs that I played with at Liverpool went to a JUCO and then went to WVU for his Junior and Senior years. The only thing that I remember him saying about that time was that off campus there was absolutely nothing...not just nothing to do but just nothing.

Why would anyone want to go there.

They are the only school in the nation that offers a class in couch burning.

There are lots of schools like that. Virginia Tech, PSU for example.

D3 and JUCO basketball coaches used this pitch with me on visits so I’m sure big time coaches at schools like this are using the same narrative to convince recruits it’s actually better to be at a school in an isolated location. Something along the lines of “There’s no place better to concentrate on football and reach your potential at a school where there is literally nothing else to do (besides drink)”

Isolated campuses are great for developing rabid fanbases. And alcoholism, of course.

Kid I graduated from Central Square with went to JUCO and then walked on at WVU for the 07 and 08 seasons. Still very dedicated to the program.

Michigan State used to, but recently expanded it to include cars.

What would you want to do? I spent six years there and I was never bored. Of course, I was a grad student doing field ecology.
