Same high school as Cole Luke from the 2013 class.

USC leads

 

[Iknowmorethanyou]

apparently committing tomorrow

 

[NDinL.A.]

I didn't even know we had a thread on him.

When he got home off his visit from USC, he said USC was far and away his leader and he might commit soon. So this wouldn't be a surprise.

Interestingly, a few USC fans commented on how he got dominated at a recent camp. But he's got the offers to prove that he can play. This will be the 3rd '14 pick-up for the Trogans...all O-linemen. If there's one position I'd like to see junior film on, it would be O-line. And I'd say that for Irish commits too. Then again, some guys you can just tell that they got 'it' - but 3 O-line guys this early?

 

[GBdomer]

Should be a SC commit before the end of the day. Just hope Redfield gives us a chance before he commits to USC too.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

...and there it is, committed to the Trojans.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Solid trolling by a former ND QB here.‏

@azc_obert :
Hamilton 2014 OT Casey Tucker announces on Facebook he has committed to Southern Cal. Coach Steve Belles says he feels Tucker was pressured

 

[Rack Em]

II update stating that his cousin (with whom he's very close) is headed to ND. And like Backhand said above, he goes to the same school as Cole Luke. His connections to ND are on the rise. It may not pull him away from USC, but we'll get a look.

 

[AdmiralBackhand]

I need to update his profile if we are possibly getting back into it with him. The other day I saw him at 6'6 and 297 lbs I think.

Thanks Buster

Hopefully we can get involved, steal another USC committ

 

[greyhammer90]

I hear that USC is pulling the old "play guard and tackle at the same time" pitch on him.

Very possible. Former team mate of Cole Luke, coached by former ND QB Steve Belles, and (IIRC) reportedly grew up an ND fan. With the S.S. Kiffin sinking deeper by the day, he should be a prime candidate to flip.

 

[GBdomer]

ND is in touch with him and be in his recruitment

 

[yankeeND]

Would like to set up a pipeline here since Belles is coaching there. Seems like AZ is starting to put out a lot D-I talent! Neal, Luke, Tucker?

Haha funny looking back at this.

Flipping USC commits is my favorite offseason football activity.

Redfield wasn't an offseason flip, but I do agree with you.

 

[arrowryan]

If we flip this kid or not. I think the 2014 OL haul will be better than the one in 2013, and that is saying something

At least they're not telling him he'll be the next Percy Harvin.

The potential for that is certainly there. Win 10+ again this year and we should be sitting pretty. Guys like Braden Smith, Mason Cole, KC McDermott, and Tucker are all very legit options right now. Could be special. Maybe Stanford of two years ago special with more talent in the backfield. Scary!

Geez...makes you wonder why he committed to USC so quickly. Sounds like he shhhouullldd be all Irish

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

I believe there is a former SC player on the staff at Hamilton as well

and wasn't someone putting a lot of pressure on Tucker to commit? I thought Belles mentioned that when talking about Luke's recruiting process.

 

[yankeeND]

Yeah I saw that shortly after he committed. Long way to go but a couple months ago his name was hot and reports of his cousin attending ND came out. We will be in the fight.
