You that annoying feeling when a kid chooses Stanford over ND? At least that makes sense, especially when considering geography. Someone please explain picking the other Indiana school.

Not saying he's going to pick Purdue, but you get my point...

Purdue recruits Florida and Georgia amazing. Surprised, but not shocked.

Didn't they just get banned from recruiting some high schools down in Florida because their coach is a lying d-bag?

Not sure about that.

But, 5 of their 15 commits for Class of 2011 were from Florida or Georgia, 7 of their 24 commits from 2010 were from Florida, and 16 of their 20 commits from 2009 were from Florida or Georgia. Total of 38/69 in the last 3 years. Pretty impressive for a Big 10 school.

Again it is because Danny Hope grew up in Florida and use to be a HS coach there.

Here is what I was talking about. Sure ruffled some feathers down there... interested to see if their classes continue to feature an abundance of Florida kids.

On ESPN it said he had plans to make trips to LSU, ND, and Michigan but it is unclear if those visits are now off. So there's still a glimmer of hope he may want to still visit and see if that does anything for ND.

Yes, Danny Hope does an incredible job pulling 2 and 3 star recruits from Florida...he competes with FIU and FAU with a tenacity not seen by most MAC and SunBelt coaches.

This Bush is not included in that group, as he is certainly a legit prospect. I can't blame him for checking out his brother's school and it would be a special thing to play major CFB with your sibling (Atkinson Wonder-Twin powers activated, here), but that's about the only attractive thing about Purdon't.

Florida high school sports | Hawks' King 'heartbroken' after Purdue pulls scholarship (updated 6:55 p.m.)

I do remember reading that article on here not too long ago.. What a raw deal that kid got. Not sure how often that happens but it's just wrong. You'd think Hope would realize it could hurt recruiting, getting a bad rep like that.

Speaking of Purdue.. them.. AF, Wake Forest, BC and Navy all need to be beaten by at least 30 points this year. It's about time for ND to start bullying.

AF and BC are going to be legit. Will be surprised if we beat those teams by more than 10... but I do expect us to win.
