AS I SAID BEFORE THE HOTTEST RECRUITS ARE D BACKS AND D LINEMAN- IF YOU ARE A ONE STAR ATHLETE WITH THE SIZE OR SPEED YOU GET A LOOK AT MOST LEVEL TWO COLLEGES (SYRACUSE, ARMY, RUTGERS, VILLANOVA ETC.) WHAT THE PL GETS IS BASICALLY THE LEFTOVERS OR STUDENTS WHO REALLY WANT A GREAT EDUCATION–AND PLAY FOOTBALL
IT IS THE SAME ARGUMENT THROUGH THE LATE 90’S WITH NOTRE DAME WHY COULDN’T THEY GET ATHLETES? HARD ACADEMIC GUIDELINES
MOST 2,3,4 STAR ATHLETES THINK THEY ARE GOING TO PLAY IN THE NFL
THEY HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF IN HIGH SCHOOL AND HAVE LARGE EGOS- WE DON’T SEE THE DARKSIDE OF RECRUITING-
WE DON’T SEE STUDENT ATHLETES THAT GETTING FORCED OFF THE TEAM SO THEY COULD USE THE SCHOLARSHIP FOR THE NEXT YEAR’S RECRUITING CLASS (READ THE COMMENTS BY NICK SABAN)
THAT IS WHY THEY ARE IMPLEMENTING THE GUARANTEED 4 YEAR SCHOLARSHIP POLICY
