Defensive end flips, tells Atlanta newspaper UL NCAA investigation is one reason
Defensive end flips, tells Atlanta newspaper UL NCAA investigation is one reason
Let's see what Hud has, one rogue coach, heck Hud can sell all the positives, and get this young man closer to home
He wanted to go to college and play with his first cousin. His comments on UL being on probation didn't affect his scholarship one way or another. He told Coach Hudspeth on his visit on the 16th he planned to visit Georgia Tech and coach told him that they had other prospects that wanted to come to UL and to let him know if that was his final decision. He told Coach Hudspeth he was going and Lee was told he had no scholarship offer any longer at UL. Lee was not happy with their decision and is now using the story about probation for his decision to visit Georgia Tech. This is the other side of recruiting. Coaches pull offers all the time for better prospects and prospects drop commitments all the time for better programs.
Yeah thought it was odd he casually mentioned the NCAA probe, then goes on to mention his cousin plays there, then moving to O-line, then engineering.
Sounds like another look at me kid. He wasn't man enough to just say he s not coming and took the opportunity to ding us. Seriously, picking an outstanding engineering school is simple enough to say but he had to throw in and highlight probation. Hope he sits the bench ....
That's good ___
LOL, really. I saved it for later use.
And when one gets down to the nut-cuttin', how would probation without a post-season bowl ban be bad for an individual kid? Wouldn't the reduction in scholarships actually be good for an individual's chances to win a starting position? I realize that fewer scholarships might somehow translate to a loss or two that otherwise wouldn't have happened, but I doubt most kids are thinking much beyond how much playing time they were personally going to get.
Buckley needed a headline. Whatevs.
I'm not naive enough to believe the incident won't have fallout. But based on what you guys are saying, it sounds like he used it as an excuse rather than justification.
