Too late for 2023?! :lol: Recruiting is so ****ing silly. Egos involved are outrageous most of the time.
No, too late as in the way USC whiffed on DJ still lingers with the whole family and will most likely take them out of the Matayo sweepstakes.

Got you. You obviously know the intricacies of all of that stuff wayyyyy better than me but it still reeks of egos gone crazy.
 
As I’m reading more about this ASU stuff, my main question is who turned them in. You dropped dime on them nako xl nako xl ?

I just know how hurt the family is with how DJ's recruitment went at USC. It still hurts to this day. USC was THE school for that family. DJ wears #5 because of Reggie. His room was filled with USC stuff. It was going to happen had Tee Martin showed more interest. He didnt really believe in him.

All because they thought he would be drafted to play baseball (one of the reasons).
 
Sounds like Antonio Pierce is the crux of the recruiting issues

On one weekend in October, there were so many high school kids visiting that a staff member parked a 12-person van in the staff parking lot to tour around recruits. The visits spanned months, sources said, including some in October, the weekend of the UCLA game in December and through the spring game, which one source said “was like an official visit weekend.”

“It wasn’t a secret,” said a staff member with direct knowledge of the visits. “As far as knowing everyone who came into that [football] office, the number is too big and the names are too many. They would bring in parents, their moms and dads and friends. They’d get a facility tour like they were on an official visit. They’d show you the weight room and training room. They’d show you everything.”

In perhaps the most extreme example of how normalized the illicit recruiting had become, one Bay Area prospect — who enrolled at a rival Pac-12 school — worked out with a position coach at a local park. The video of that workout was shot on a cell phone camera and then evaluated in an offensive staff meeting of more than a dozen coaches. Not only was the workout and visit against the rules, but the staffers evaluated the illegal workout on the illegal visit as if it were a recruit's high school game tape. The staff now must hope that same recruit and others like him don't detail their visits to the NCAA, which has leverage over the players' eligibility.

“The confusing part is why you’d put your career on a 17-year-old senior,” said one source.

:rollin :rofl:

Hearing they're doing well with Matayo and Dave and Nico's fam liked the visit. Hit up Dave and get the good word 👀
 
Is the ASU thing the news that “could impact the balance of power in the west” from the tweet on the previous page?

Yeah. They’ve been pay for playing and dirty recruiting. Oregon people swear they got their playbook too from prentice Gill when he was still in staff. If all of this pans out it’s major violation level and Herm and everyone is out.

Balance of power is overselling it, but they were a media darling and a program on the rise. If this causes them to fire Herm and staff and costs them schollies and bowl bids it kills all that.

depends what the NCAA decides to do.

Overselling it is putting it mildly lol.
