Class of 2017 OT Isaiah Wilson (NY) Committed to UGA

[jekelish]

umm if we aren't recruiting one of the very best players in the country that just happens to be from NYS then there is something seriously wrong. And we were recruiting him. He was up for the Spring game.

I think he meant the coach at Poly Prep, trying to explain his grudge.

Yes, that is exactly what I was talking about. Isaiah seems to like SU. It would be nice if the coach stayed objective.

If the kid really wanted to though it would work out. I wish I could tell some of the stories I heard regarding Dontae Strickland recruitment, and how down right rude his HS HC was. These coaches really need to realize it's not about them.

Yeah, but Strickland was all about SU, he wasn't going to be swayed. What if Isaiah was just favoring SU and his coach tore SU apart enough to make him rethink. As you said, the coaches make it about themselves. It sucks

 

[JrodCuse]

He gone?

A lot of schools were having Junior Day this past weekend.

Hearing a runor that Poly Prep's HC is leaving. Don't know why but this is potentially great news for us if he's gone. He's a RUT alum & ND Fan that would never send a kid to SU

Released his top 5, we aren't one of them...

 

[rackman18]

Any surprise there?

We're never going to get any of the top 5 in NYC, all those players will have bigger offers.

but, but, we're New York's College Team! Doesn't that count for something?

I disagree. "Never" is a long time and Babers is just getting this thing going.

No artificial ceilings please.

So maybe he commits to them and next January Harbaugh decides to go over the top of him because somebody "better" comes along. It's not like he hasn't done that in the past.

 

[N.Y. Orangeman]

From the ESPN article on him...thanks, ESPN (though it is tough to argue right now):

"Since he is from New York, there is no in-state school to fend off, but it does look as though Michigan is the early favorite."

He replaced OH St with SC in his top 5.

The best players from NYS continue to be followers, not leaders.

This kid will get so lost amongst all the the big boys and no one will know him. This is what gets me is why not stay home, like SU and be good amongst his piers and be notice by many. jmo

Why do you think he will get lost? Who's to say he doesn't start for 2 or 3 years and go on to the NFL? If he would get lost at one of those schools, I don't necessarily want him at SU. It would be nice if he wanted to come to SU, but if not, time to move on.

Perhaps he doesn't just want to be a good dock worker.

Why would anyone choose us over the other schools? We need to win 1st, then we'll get them to take a chance.
