kchusker_chris Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 A couple ways to look at this: 1) We are full and stop pushing him to visit. Optimistic. 2) Staff dropped the ball. Pessimistic. Keep in mind, the people who go the route of #2 will also be the same people that would b*tch about him only being a 2star if he signed with NU. I have a feeling we are going to be very happy by the end of day Feb. 1. Long way for Brown to travel, only to stop recruiting him 6 days later though. Must be reason - and I wouldn't think it would be the staff dropping the ball. Something has changed in the last week, they know something. Quote Link to comment

They were talking about a few months ago when the staff cooled on him and then jumped back on him recently. That's what they mean by "dropped the ball" Quote Link to comment
irieboy8 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 the kid really really likes Nebraska.. but feels like he has more in common with arizona in terms of fitting in and being comfortable which i of course understand as this is very important to hawaii kids.... i think ideally he would like to have gone to Nebraska but with the mind games and the atmosphere in AZ he just felt like it was a better fit emotionally when it just comes down to it 2 Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 You cant stop recruiting a kid, recruit someone "better", stop talking to previous recruit, miss out on that better player, then go back with 2 weeks of recruiting and be like soooo what about going to Nebraska? Hard for that recruit to say yes. This is what I feel happened Quote Link to comment
caveman99 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I have seen some posts around the net saying that the staff told him we had no room now? As in they backed off completely, maybe they fell better about TE than we do. Quote Link to comment

You take Fuller over Loo any day - regardless of position. My guess is we go w/ the 1 TE, and someone else took this scholly (if this is true). Quote Link to comment

I thought it was a bit weird, but with the sudden rosy outlook for bigger prospects had me thinking. Thanks for clearing that up, looks we simply tried to slow play and whiffed. Quote Link to comment

Not really a slow play. Had the need then didn't and then did when Kerr left and picked things up. All was going well intil Rich Rod got involved. Give RR credit he's one of the best recruiting head coaches out there. Quote Link to comment
