Mavric Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 This could work out well ..... or really poorly. Big news for Lane Kiffin: Jeremiah Taleni, a 6-2, 300-pound defensive tackle who was expected to be Pitt’s top D-lineman this season before being dismissed, and linebacker Kain Daub, once a top recruit at FSU, are expected to be eligible and cleared to practice for FAU starting Tuesday, a source told SI. The 6-4, 250-pound Daub had chosen FSU over Alabama, among others. He spent the 2016 season at a junior college in New York....The two big defenders are just the latest talent upgrades with major college connections for the Owls since Kiffin was hired in December. The first big name on board was DeAndre Johnson, a QB who began his career at FSU. Since then, the Owls have added former Texas wide receiver DeAndre McNeil; D’Anfernee McGriff, a wideout who had once signed with Florida, a pair of four-star recruits; Tim Bonner, a defensive end who started his college career at Louisville; James Pierre, a 6-2, 175-pound safety who initially signed with Syracuse and Zach Stefo, an offensive lineman who had signed with Colorado State who has two seasons of eligibility remaining.

teachercd Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I would do the same. Kiffin has cashed 3 lotto tickets. This is his 4th. He never has to work again but he knows that he will, no matter what happens here. Quote Link to comment
In the Deed the Glory Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Wow, I'm all for second chances but that is a lot of them on one team... Quote Link to comment
seaofred92 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 if i was at FAU I would be doing the exact same thing. Any CUSA/Sunbelt school should be doing this. Especially those teams like New Mexico State that just get demolished on an annual basis Quote Link to comment
