[USER=3507]Statesman1[/USER] Never said this was about my "connections on the hill". It's not tough to make a living recruiting "under the radar" guys as we've seen through the Marrone era and we're seeing so far under Shafer. If other schools aren't aware of a prospect they can't offer them can they?

We offered Davante Davis before anyone else, and he's probably going to end up at Alabama or another selector school. We had to fight wars last year with PSU, Miami, Tennessee to name a few just to keep some of our recruits. But that's not reported because the prospect has already committed and a school like that won't offer unless they know they'll flip.

Will some of these "under the radar" kids not pan out? Sure. But Averin Collier and Lavar Lobdell were high profile kids with tons of offers and didn't pan out. Quinta Funderburk hasn't panned out. We'll see how many of the kids in this class our staff can hang onto because there will be significant pressure from other schools moving forward.
