Recruiting question AGAIN

[dannyripms]

I know you guys are tired of answering these but I'm curious. I see we offer Schollys to a lot of high profile guys. Seems like some of them we offer just to be offering, like guys that live a long ways off and has tons of other big name schools after him. Do we actually try to get these guys to take a visit? If we do are we really pushing it? I'm not saying we should hand out maroon bags bit at what length are we going to get these guys to visit? Seems like a lot of people don't really know what we have to offer as far as facility wise. To me we have one of the nicest campus and facilities in all of america. I think if we could get these guys to take an actual visit we might be able to snag a few of them.

I know Jack **** about recruiting, but I did stay @ a Holiday Inn last night. And the non-existent bell Hop in the know told me...Return the Golden Egg to Starkville, & let the douchebags worry about February.

When did State offer the player? They start far away and then move closer to home. If it is way back, then it was either to get them to camp or get on them before their recruitment blows up. If it was recent, then the coaches know there's serious interest there because they aren't going to waste time on a player hundreds of miles away this late in the process. They don't want the "free trip group" (see TSUN recruiting strategy) while they are trying to lock down serious recruits.

Ironic. The problem to me seems to be we don't offer or target enough highly recruited kids.

How many out of state 4 and 5 star kids do we really target per class? 3 or 4? Maybe a low 4 star kid from Bama that UA and AU are passing on. Compare that to Freeze and Company.
