Message: [QUOTE="retro44, post: 1725741, member: 587"] I have told you in person in the past kids we ignored.I not going to start throwing Names out just to make you happy. My nephew was very close friends with a current big time player now and according to him we didn't recruit him hard at all. Wilbur and Desko are not on talking terms. Rodgers from SU and Gatto from OCC WHO I grew up with his father do all the talking about OCC players. local AAU coaches hate the idea of young kids committing before their Jr. years as late bloomers are getting screwed on scholarship offers and kids who peak too early college coaches are afraid to resend their offers over fears of pissing off AAU coaches. How many local High school coaches do you know personally? How many AAU coaches do you know personally? My wife is still a local High school teacher at a few different high schools so either I played with them or know them from her or other contacts. As for the tuition issue i know for a fact the staff goes around and disperses funds on a need basis. They tell one kid we will pay for your books,others they say we will give you a few thousand in tuition expenses and so on.They give them academic ships in various amounts along with other grants they qualify for. My kids who are Marcellus athletes are good friends with an SU current player who played Lax with him.My oldest anyways. My Grandmother was a half mohawk who owned a home on rt.11a in Nedrow so I know few either by Box when I played 35 years ago and I brought an Uncle of a recent player to few football games in the last 2 to 3 years.The Six Nation kids would not be going to 'cuse if the Reservation was located father way and not giving out full rides to them. They flat out don't like Desko.as a coach,Simmons yes. [/QUOTE]
