I referenced that in one of my comments, but be careful as to what you say--- "people might be watching and they may decommit due to postings on this board".Originally posted by BobZag View Post
The staff is usually more right than wrong, so i dont think we are offering more than at most 1 Keegan. -
Wasn't Keegan offered late in the cycle?Comment

It's also unacceptable to have opinions that are negative on said message board. We all know players and parents read this religiously and are swayed by what some armchair quarterbacks have to say about them. I know that would certainly make me question sending my kid to such a place.Originally posted by zagsfanforlife View Post

That was...an interesting time during GU's journey. There were as many whiffs as successes on players during a 2 or 3 year period. I simply can't see the staff reverting to recruiting players like that after all of the recent success and trend of recruits and transfers they've been bringing in.Comment

What an adorable thread .... Pissers and Moaners about our inept coaching staff find a home on GU boards. Just so sweet ..._______________________________

Yeah, it makes me sad to see stuff like this. I remind myself to just stay away from the board but I miss the good stuff!!Originally posted by ZagNative View Post“When I get a little money I buy books; and if any is left I buy food and clothes.”

It seems that people thought that Zags recruiting after the Championship game appearance would work something like this:

I do not see the keegan hyland scholarship being anything near recent offers to Watson, ravet and vankomen.
I forget what year it was, but the perceived weakness of the team was going to be its outside shooting, and the zags had a scholarship to burn so they took a flyer on hyland, who was supposed to be a long range sniper. And yes it was a very late in the year offer, hyland had missed his senior year due to an injury and was under everyone's radar. We know the rest, in practice he suffers a concussion and never steps onto the floor for the zags.
While i take issue with the reference of similarity between hyland and Watson, ravet and vankomen. I think I do take take Bob's reference. That we have 2 new accepted offers to players who are off the grid so to speak (thus far) and have no power 5 conference competing offers. Time would only have told the tale on that point, but I highly suspect after even one more year of h.s. ball and both Watson and ravet would be reeling in the offers.
someone already mentions this, and a good point. the team has 13 scholarships, almost seems wise and prudent to use a couple a year on the potential diamond in the rough, and hope for the best, and if not maybe you find a great glue guy, or needed depth, or good practice players.
I'm not worried, I think we are going to be okay.Comment

No worries Bob......it won't be. Few took the best available. If they prove themselves, they play. If not, they won't play. No need for whining from the peanut gallery. I agree with GRIZ. Why take a straightforward BobZag thread to new lows by veering off in to a "freedom of speech" type series of comments by the usual types.Comment
