There is another I believe not sure where it stands though on the announcement

Yes there is one more from the 5 we know happened this past weekend

In the Scholarship Rundown I only see 4 announced. More, C-J, Ingraham and Gould. Was there a 5th announced?

LB.

Probably not announced yet.

Are you talking about Lonnie Rice?

 

[Biaxtar]

The curse continues.

 

[SanDiegoCuse]

The curse continues.

Really?!?!

 

[Cusefan69]

The curse continues.

 

[orangeinohio]

Why?
Does this help his chances of getting to the NFL?

 

[Whitey23]

Wow!

 

[CIL]

I’m not sure we seriously pursued Rooks. Staff likes what we have put together at DL.

Much greater need at getting bigger beef on the OL right now.

Agreed. Zero evidence to suggest otherwise.

 

[Nick44]

When it rains it pours. Ugh.

 

[djorange1989]

This truly sucks

Agreed. Zero evidence to suggest otherwise.

Yep. I asked multiple times if he was actually visiting or anything and got crickets so I think people were just jumping to conclusions.

 

[Janner]

I'm guessing this is due to the Hafley and NJ connection?

Legacy, position of need, some interest original recruitment. Hope springs eternal

 

[Cusefan69]

I think we still have some strong additions to the dline in this class. Perry, 00, Ingraham and Gordon. Ingraham was a top 150 player per Tom. If those ACL repairs are solid which I would expect from a place like Bama, the guy has the potential to be a game impacting type player for us. Perry will just hurt people. I am happy with who we pulled in.

 

[SURules]

I don’t get BC for him but it is what it is.

I think the fans' wishlist was not the same as the staff's when it comes to Rooks.

 

[Orangefan1]

Really?!?!

Wow

 

[tep624]

Well not to be harsh but everyone was assuming because he was a 4 star and went to Michigan that he was better than who we had or are recruiting. Blue chip kids do wash out as well.

 

[rackman18]

The curse continues.

Does he hate SU that much to sign with BC? Wow

 

[grepal]

Really?!?!

This hurts.

 

[OrangeMojo]

Lol - whatever, have fun - give me the kid transferring over from Alabama 100 times out of 100
