This guy just signed an LOI with a Pac-10 school, and neither Rivals nor ESPN have him evaluated.

won’t give it away, but he’s a three sport athlete. He plays basketball and runs the 100m in track.

All the PX schools were looking at him, one was even looking for him to play basketball. He had academic issues so most started looking elsewhere (including Wisconsin who had offered him earlier). WSU stuck with him, pushed him to make his grades, and so when he looked to be eligible for this fall, many starting coming back, including Tennessee. By then he’d already committed to Wulff and Co.

I like this tactic by our coaches. If they’ve got the talent but struggling on academics, but show they’re willing to push and make the effort to get qualified, then once they’re on campus with all the academic support available, I feel good about their chances of graduating. We get a glimpse into the kids’ character, and if he doesn’t make it, we have a two year head start on getting him out of a JC.

If were trading cleveland and forde for mizzell and this kid I’m ok with that.

Fetters also had high praise for our class in an article last night callingwhat wulff did nothing short of amazing and praising guys like holliday rodgers and dunn

I like getting another frosh to red or gray shirt and get him on the iron- put a few big bodies in the pipeline! Again- multi sport athlete with good wheels… as the restrictions of the academic scholies go away I am thinking we will see a few more ‘gambles’ like this… I like it.

6’ 4.5"- 268 lbs.- 4.9 by scout

but the point is- the big guy has wheels!
