All I need to see is "Alabama" on that offer list.
“I’ve been hearing a lot from USC and UCLA,” Mama told Lindsey Thiry of Scout.com. “Those are two schools I’d like to get (offers).”
distance shouldn't be a factor in Mama's eventual decision.

His whole family is USC fans. Would be a very tough pull.
Same h.s. as Bryce Treggs and Nico Falah, as well as current UW qb Keith Price. A few yrs ago the admin at St. John Bosco got tired of getting their brains beat in by Mater Dei (Leinart, Barkley, and our own Joe Schmidt) and Servite (Troy Niklas) and brought in coaches in both football and bball that would recruit (just like Gardena Serra did, and they ended up with Robert Woods and Marquise Lee, among many others).
So it would be nice to get one of these kids so we could develop a good relationship at that school. Unfortunately USC is ahead of us there. Gonna put in a call to one of my former students who plays with Mama to see where his head is at, but I'd imagine it would be with USC right now.
And on cue, Mama was at USC's practice today with USC signee and fellow h.s. teammate Nico Fallah.
It's funny, I talked to my former student last night about Falah and he said Falah completely changed during the recruiting process. Said it got to his head and he wasn't the nice, cool kid he used to be - cocky as hell now. Even got into a twitter beef with teammates who he was ragging on for not having offers. Perfect fit for USC, who incidentally he was committed to for over 6 months but yet flirted with UW all the way to the end (even said someone stole his phone and sent tweets to recruitniks saying he was having 2nd thoughts about USC - surrrrrre buddy.
Happens all the time...but Nico will get his taste of humble pie soon enough, as he is way smaller than Mama and he needs to put on a lot of muscle to play at the next level. And he plans on playing right away LOL. Hopefully Mama stays humble throughout.
Would we take him or Braden Smith if both came calling? As good as both of them are, I dont see how staff would take both of them with 4 OL commits already. Unless another Mattingly situation occurs, but 1) I dont see that happening and 2) None of the Olinemen are bad enough to feel like that will never see the field.

I believe so. If we get overloaded there, Mama certainly looks like a NT...

Yeah, was thinking the same thing. Could/would he play nose?
.... probably nonsense but Mustipher has some DT experience and is a weightroom forklifter.
