That made me chuckle and I could not agree more.

I do love the Eagles "Desperado" but for me the original Desperado was the Alice Cooper song. "I'm a picture of ugly stories I'm a killer and I'm a clown" one of the best lines from any song.

Sorry didn't mean to hijack the thread, but I could talk music all day.

---If the track coaches didn't want him then the whole discussion is a mute point----If he didn't go after him--maybe he should check out past UL coaches successes!!

Our family went through college recruiting and things worked out well with four consecutive seasons played at the same school and ultimately, two degrees earned.

I might add he should take a peek at the academic portion of the equation. Does he have a specific degree program he is interested in? How do the schools interested in him stack up in his area of academic interest?

If football were out of the equation, for some reason (___ happens), of the schools on the "list" where would he want to attend college?

Go where they want you and you WILL know who that is. Don't try to fit a square peg in the round hole, where they don't want you.

Good luck and enjoy the ride!

Ah, Alice. Then you remember Cold Ethyl?

Big Cooper fan. I was lucky enough to meet him a few years back at a concert. We had VIP tickets and had dinner with the musicians before the concert and our table was right in front of the stage. Very outstanding family. The founding members of Chicago played, so did Jordan Sparks who I had no clue who she was before the concert. Very impressed with her performance, she sat with two young men that just had acoustic guitars.

Thank you for the correction. It was Brooks Reed. I shall correct the error. Actually he became buddys with JJ through Brooks. They would go out to Arizona or USC with Brian Cushing to watch the two schools play each other if they were able to. That's the story I got anyway.
