'12 CA WR Deontay Greenberry (Houston Signee)

[IrishandColts]

WR Deontay Greenberry has a top school

What is his top school?

 

[TerryTate]

ND is his top school. His parents are "pushing him to USC" according to the article.

Will take visits to ND, Bama, and USC

Doesn't help anything out that his parents are pushing for the local school. My 100 percent chance of committing went to 80.

Official Visit + Winning Season will cure that.

I just hope this kid chooses the school that is best for him and where he wants to go and not his parents. I'm sure he will get a little pressure from mom and dad.

Although, I sure am glad Tuitt and Lynch listened to their momma's!!
Go Irish

I was waiting for someone to post something related to Tuitt.

 

[buirish]

Sometimes, momma knows best!! Atleast, when it benefits ND!! Now, I'm perfectly happy with DG making his own choice!! Which seems to be joining his cousin at ND.
Go Irish

Didn't Marlon Pollard decommit from us to UCLA, because his family was pushing for him to go there. He ended up being miserable and I think transfering out of UCLA.

Where's Dan Weber when you need him.... wait...

I am pretty sure he never committed to us. On signing day he wanted to sign with us but his father said no and UCLA won him.

 

[calvegas04]

I doubt his family is even pushing him to usc that hard, when asked why does his family like usc all he said was cause they are from LA and no other reason. So get his parents to ND and they will fall in love with ND too. We are in the drivers seat for sure.

Pollard was committed to UCLA then Notre Dame then back again to UCLA.

But if all things go good I could easily see Greenberry committing to ND and eventually signing. Or so I hope.

Why would he consider USC with their WR depth?

 

[ThePiombino]

Why would he consider USC with their WR depth?

Proximity to home. If the parents are pushing hard enough for him to go to USC for the sole reason of location, then they're prolly not all that interested in depth charts to begin with...

This^

No doubt he's discussed the home town option with this parents; there's always something to be said for proximity to home.

Whether that means his parents are really "pushing" him to USC, or if he was simply trying to give the USC reporter a reason why he was considering the school... who knows? At this point, we look to be firmly in the driver's seat, and there are rumblings that he'll be verballing to ND imminently.

I'm not concerned about USC yet.

That's the impression I get as well. You just never know until it happens. And even then...

YouTube - 2011 Stanford Nike Camp interview with Deontay Greenberry

This kid is screaming "I'm committing to ND soon". I will be utterly shocked if he decided elsewhere.

I could totally imagine the interview going like this:

USCclown: So, have you considered USC? Great school! We'd love to have you as a part of the program.

DG: Yeah, and I'm sure my parents would like me to stay close.

Headline::: Greenberry's parents pushing him to go to USC!!!

You know that's pretty close to how it went.

lol He's so interested in USC he forgot that they offered him.

 

[JughedJones]

Hilarious.

 

[Irish Man3]

Its a recent offer so perhaps it slipped his mind. Not worried about USC. This kid will be Irish.

"What are you looking for in a school?"

MAKE SURE THEY RUN THE SPREAD!

First school he mentioned was Notre Dame, then said he wanted to play in the spread, then said he wanted a school with good academics. It took him a while to think of anything he liked about USC.

After watching that video I'm starting to really hate the people that do these interviews with the kids, and that's not limited to USC.

It's really uncomfortable, especially in this instance when it was pretty obvious that he wasn't terribly interested and this joker kept pushing. It kind of reminds me of Girls Gone Wild when a girl doesn't want to get naked for the ******* pimp.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

USCumbag: "What do you... um, does your family like about USC?"
Greenberry: "It's in L.A. (laughs) That's all."

I love this kid.

Totally with you on this, Jughed. That was SO AWKWARD. He was clearly just trying to be polite, but the clown either couldn't or refused to read between the lines.

 

[InKellyITrust]

After watching that interview, I hope he picks ND.

 

[IRISH FAN IN EASTL.A.]

I am not worried about him considering sc in the video interview at stanfor you can see it in his facial expressions that he was not interested in sc and can tell we are in the seat ND was the 1st school he mentioned in the interview..he'll be irish after 6/11/11 Go Irish!!
