These three names have surfaced as RU commits & recruits

[Orangeyes]

that we have been in contact with. Have you heard of any others? Only one is visiting SU as far as I know.

As soon as the announcement was made that Shady was heading to Tampa, the RU AD contacted all of the recruits to assure them that everything was going to be OK

Julian Pinnix-Odrick 6-5 265lb DE Montclair High 82 tackles 10 sacks as a junior rated 3* by Scout June 2011

Plays OL too. Half-brother of Miami Dolphin defensive end Jared Odrick who was an All-American at Penn State in 2010

The Nittany Lions were one of Julian's last schools out. Haven't put together senior stats

Syracuse's chances? He's on his way here for a visit. We are one of 10 teams or so that have been in touch with him. That he is making a visit here puts us in a better possition than most. Hopefully he gets to watch SU-WVU with a crazy atmosphere and who knows. One thing in our favor, there is no snow on the ground and a forecast of 44 degrees.

ESPN Profile

Leonte Carroo 6-1 200 lbs WR Dom Bosco HS Carroo is a physically good looking player on the hoof that is steady and consistent with good overall receiving skills. He is big and strong with good surge off the line of scrimmage. He is a galloper that builds momentum and he climbs. Plucks the ball well over smaller defensive backs. Rumored to be visiting Miami this weekend

Wouldn't wanna run into Caroo and Hamilton in a dark alley.

 

[CusefanATL]

Wouldn't wanna run into Caroo and Hamilton in a dark alley.

But i would want to run into them at Manley next fall.

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

According to a Rutgers board, Carroo has affirmed his place with Rutgers.

Unofficial (unpaid) allowed?

 

[NovaOrange]

No dead periods means no contact what so ever I am pretty sure

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

Unofficial (unpaid) allowed?

Dead period means no in-person contact.

 

[Noexcuse]

No dead periods means no contact what so ever I am pretty sure

Not sure either. Thought you couldn't leave campus or contact recruits but maybe they could contact you or show up on campus.

 

[NovaOrange]

I just asked my co worker since her son just went through it and she said dead period is no phone contact and if you can have contact via face book somehow. What how does that make sense

 

[OrangeCrush22]

Would love to get Pinnix-Odrick, we need all the help we can get at DE.

 

[orangepassion]

Look out for JPO at the game-Maybe some signs?

"Dead period is a time when the college coach may not have any in-person contact with the prospective student-athlete or the prospect’s parents at any time. The coach may write and telephone during this time."

Well if they write, they better send the letter by overnight mail or it won't get there by Wednesday.

 

[PhatOrange]

How long does the dead period last because not everybody is going to be signing on signing day? Not just buttgers kids but other kids to. Those kids need to be able to visit campuses.

By the way, Carroo reaffirming back to buttgers is their wishful thinking.

 

[PhatOrange]

South Jersey LB Qunizel Lambert will not sign on Wednesday.

I wonder if Skype is allowed.

 

[PhatOrange]

No talk about Pinnix visiting Cuse on the RU boards. They're in denial and crapping their pants that they might lose him to us.

according to what the ncaa told James Robinson it was zero phone calls just telling you exactly what she told me today. I understand you got the link however I don't understand why they would tell her that if that was the case

As soon as the announcement was made that Shady was heading to Tampa, the RU AD contacted all of the recruits to assure them that everything was going to be OK

Just once I'd like to hear where the AD called the recruits and said "look, I don't know what to tell you, but if I were you I'd probably go somewhere else because this sh is crazy, I mean he's just gone!"

Just Pick Orange

 

[orangephan]

Would love to get Pinnix-Odrick, we need all the help we can get at DE.

He seems the most realistic of the 3, but I love Caroo, and Hamiton's a beast. Even one out of 3 would be a huge win.

 

[OrangeBlood]

JPO would be an excellent late pick up. Do not sleep on him or Hilliard. Either one, I would be giddy.

 

[Whitey23]

Apparently, Carroo reaffirmed his commitment to Rutgers this weekend.
