Especially, with a guy like Slaughter, everyone knows how difficult it is to get a kid from SEC country out of the SEC. No one was better at it than CW last year, so hopefully he will succeed again, but I don't see it happening quickly.

Meanwhile, just think what a trio of CB's the Irish would have with Gray, Blanton, and Slaughter, and now they will most likely all have the same eligibility status. One from NC, one from SC, and one from GA. Sweet!

---------IUB I think you're reading too much into the articles just because we lost out on Sweat which everybody and their mother knew he was going to OSU in the first place. I thought we have people higher on our list with about 1 spot left so I was expecting it and would rather have an OLB. I've heard we've been leading for Slaughter for a long time now so it's nothing new.
