'14 AZ OL Casey Tucker (Stanford Verbal)

[Booslum31]

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.

Yeah, there is a long way to go so i don't think we give up on this one. Heck, everyone on the USC commit list should be a target. Just shocked that he committed so early.

This update was inevitable:

Hasn't heard anything about USCs 2/24 junior day from the staff
Wasn't told coach Sanders was let go, found out on Twitter
Sanders was his recruiter and no one from the USC staff has contacted him since his firing

Is looking around including a possible visit to Notre Dame
Concerned about the state of things at USC

The football gods are looking at us again.

Definitely slanted towards west coast schools at the moment.

EDIT: Jordan Poland (Top 10 OT) who is also committed to SC is also wavering because he hasn't heard from the staff in a long time and had a great relationship with Polamolu. And yes I know I butchered that.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

They need OL so badly. Stealing Tucker would be great on many different levels.

Arizona pipeline? Yes, please.

When you say, He hasn't heard from Staff, do you mean Kiffy? Isn't he the only one left? HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa

Can we change this kid to a soft verbal?

 

[NDhoosier]

what in the world is U$C doing, they desperately need OLinemen and they have two solid commits already and they are just letting them go? I know Kiffin is a douche, but this just seems beyond dumb...

 

[ND4LIFE]

I don't think it gets any dumber than Lame Wiffin!

 

[STLDomer]

Per TV He has interest in ND but ND isn't pursing him at the moment

ND is however pursing USC OL commit Jordan Poland

Poland does appear to be the higher rated although not by much.

 

[IrishLax]

Interesting that ND isn't pursuing him. Hard to get a read on what exactly the staff is looking for in their offers so far.

 

[GBdomer]

Decommited

Decommited

I read that. But thought it just a MB rumor. Legit source?

Edit: Just saw it reported by 247 USC site.

Mago what's your handle on rivals

 

[STLDomer]

Really hope we pursue him but two Tunnell Visions ago Sapp said we weren't

Same. I'm not very original.

 

[Luckylucci]

They asked TJ to weigh in on II as to the interest level from ND and Tucker. He hasn't said anything yet.

 

[GBdomer]

We aren't recruiting him.

 

[GBdomer]

Same. I'm not very original.

MB ND posters are good people, home board is the worst place in the world.

 

[Redbar]

Anybody got any ideas on why we aren't pursuing. I don't get this one.

I think Pete said once he just isnt' that good. Plus we are in a good spot with Bars and Nelly

Those are three good reasons. Thanks man.

 

[STLDomer]

Sampson expects ND to get back into but the numbers game is tight w/ Tucker, Bars, and Smith w/ Nelson "basically on board"

Whoa. Which of those guys is "basically on board"? We may lead for those guys, but "basically on board" sounds almost like silent commitment.

It's been a couple a months since I cancelled my Rivals subscription but seem to remember early on that Pete thought Tucker could challenge for 5 star status. Weird that he's done a 180°.
