'13 IL OT Ethan Pocic (LSU Verbal)

[OCIrish]

Alabama offered and they immediately shot up to his top group.

I don't know whom I have more disdain, Urbie, or Satan......although, if kids don't pick us, I'd rather them be somewhere to be a thorn in our rivals side. I'd rather him at tOSU I guess.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

In update following his OSU visit:

“I’ll get back out to Notre Dame, Wisconsin and Ohio State again,” he said. “And maybe Iowa. But I’m not sure when.”

 

[ab2cmiller]

The fact that he wants to get back out to ND, would seem a bit of a surprise. I think most of us have probably written him off quite awhile ago.

 

[TexasForever]

He also said he loved pOSU because Urban told him he could be just like Percy Harvin

 

[IrishLax]

So we might not actually be out of the running here. Pocic is going to visit Wisconsin, Ohio State, and Notre Dame over the summer. The only other schools he thinks he might visit are USC and Oklahoma but he isn't sure about those.

Really interested to see if we take a 5th OL like Dorian Johnson, Pocic, or Cochran. I'd personally love to see us pass on taking a RB in this cycle and grab an additional OL or DB.

I would amend that statement to say pass on a RB that isn't a top guy. I would have a tough time passing up a guy like Green.

And "passing" (i.e stop recruiting) on Isaac would likely deliver him to the skunkbears or condoms. I feel that he is someone the staff should continue to go after relentlessly.

I agree...., I just dont think you can pass on Green.

 

[IrishLax]

Yeah, you don't pass on a ryan green or ty isaac. For sure. Those guys arethat both simplyways too talented. But between a low 4 back and a top OL ill take the top OL 10 times out of 10.

 

[OCIrish]

So, he's coming back in the summer, does he have any plans to attend anybodys spring game?

 

[rtrn2glory]

really surprised illinois isn't more of a player here...

watch out for wisconsin imo

I'm surprised Illinois wasn't more in the mix here as well. I know their program well and it's crazy to me that with the way his brother has developed down there he didn't give them more of a shot. Still, he seems to be more wide open than we think.

 

[beryirish]

Pry not a major issue but Illinois is going through a coaching change right now with Toledo's old HC taking up the program now

correct...and beckman has a rep as a dynamic recruiter which leads me to the conclusion.

he's prolly going to have to get out to a good start to have an impact recruiting cuz the competition just got a lot tougher.

 

[BeauBenken]

Just have to say, if you want to succeed at coaching, be successful in the MAC and you'll get some kind of mid to mid major level job.

 

[Kansas Irish]

LSU just offered.

Bing "turd Urban Meyer" in images and see who else shows up.

His hot daughter?

Layla Kiffin?

Tebow?

He has a hot daughter? That's more interesting than seeing a pic of Les Miles when showing the equivalent of turds. (off I go looking up hottie pics)

Don't know who this is but better than putting delete.

“@SWiltfong247: Ethan Pocic visited LSU over the weekend, and program "being all about the O-line" sealed the deal. Pocic Pulls The Trigger For LSU #Tigers”


Guess we didn't put enough emphasis on OLine recruiting this cycle....

When I think LSU I think OLine U for sure. Better LSU than OSU though

 

[yankeeND]

That'll work all day long!
