aupops2 9 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Isn't USC limited to signing 15 this year? They have 16 commits and still after more. This is the key to K Rodgers' commitment to them; they can have 3 EEs, for a total of 18. If Rodgers doesn't qualify for EE, watch for him to quickly turn back to us, because he will then be "processed". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would Rodgers specificly have to be one of them? With 15 slots for 2013, they have to make sure those go to the best and most needed. KR is the third or fourth OL they have committed, the others being OTs. They did not plan on taking an OG (where Rodgers pretty much has to play because of his size), but (IMO), they gave him a committable offer to keep us off Bigelow and David Sills. Plus, the kid will make anyone a great OG, which we need. So, if he doesn't qualify for EE, he could become expendible, and that might be late enough for them to hold Bigelow. I think Bigelow will stay anyway. If USCw had full 25 scholarship capability, KR would probably be safe. Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see and understand what your saying Pops, but your correct also gman in that any one three of the current commits could be an EE. Basically if they have three other EE already committed which I guess they don't because of the way that Rodgers recruiting process went with USCw. If I remember correctly he was planning to visit the left coast when all of the sudden he cancelled the trip so that he could enroll in summer school the next day. Which lead people to believe that LK told him if he wanted an offer he would have to enroll early. So basically to piggy back on both pop"s answer and gman question. Of the 16 committed is KR the only one trying to be an EE? If so that means that every other commit would have to be an EE? Seems like if they promoted EE to ones that are already committed they wouldn't be handcuffed from here on out by having to take only EE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUenginerd 16 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 They can promote it all they want, but if the kids haven't taken the classes, often there's no way to get them done in time to be an actual EE. It's not just something you decide to do last minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aupops2 9 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Guys, we recently had a rather "interesting" thread on the uat bias on 247, and I certainly don't want to dig that back up, but......... Ron Sanders, owner of the 247 Auburn site, Auburncover, OP'd a thread over there about the fact that we were ranked higher on 247 than any of the other sites, which is true. Today, I can assure you he is wishing he never started that thread. The posting over there tends to be very shallow, uninformed, and tightly controlled, so I rarely participate, but this subject got go contentgious (sp), that both BM and PM had to intervene for the boss. Of course, he repeatedly tried to defend his position, which made it worse. Funny, funny stuff!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but if you don't work a plan, starting as early as possible, a last minute attempt is virtually impossible. I don't believe that KR is a serious EE candidate, but with Coach Benchpress, anything is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just something you decide to do last minute. Maybe I should have worded it differently, but that is exactly why I asked the question i asked. Seems like if they would've promoted it earlier they wouldn't be handcuffed now. In KR's case it seemed like something they waited till the last minute to decide. As he was schedule to get on a plane then all of the sudden didn't, and said he decided to enroll in summer classes starting that next day.

I hear what you're saying pops but if push came to shove and they could cement any other 3 players to the EE spots it still frees them up to max out on schollies. Ideally (for them) they get Rodgers to EE which insures Bigelow not flipping (to some degree) because his homeboy is already enrolled. All this with the disclaimer that I have no idea what USC's needs are, only that they are getting elite talent throughout their class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would Rodgers specificly have to be one of them? If you watched Rodgers actions you will see that it is highly likely that USC told Rodgers they would only take him as an EE. A few weeks ago he was supposed to go to the USC Rising Seniors camp but the day before the camp Rodgers randomly backed out and started summer classes. That is a bit odd and very telling IMO.

mustache eagle 2,452 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 when a coach has been some place over a decade and he has a class that can be that large ... i know this is an obvious statement ... but something is amiss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
