A lot has to do with the fact we've been so involved. These past years, we've really become leaders in the greek community and put our face out there as leaders. |
Ethan Kilmer and Tyler Reed didn't even go to the scouting combine. But that's the funny part of this: A lot of guys come under the radar. Guys like Reed and Kilmer might not be draft picks, but they can make teams. Cream rises to the top. |
He was a really, really outstanding back. He came through my camp and showed people he had quickness, athleticism and explosion. I think what happened with him is that he might have peaked in high school. That happens. |
I received numerous phone calls, but didn't want to discuss it out of respect to Javier. |
I think coaching has a lot to do with it. I think we have very good coaches here who, for some reason, know how to pick players and coach them at quarterback. |
I think it's a total misconception. I don't hold anything against the level of competition. If they're good, guys like me will find them. |
I told him to wait a while and see what happens. He had a lot on his plate. |
Recruiting is a funny business, and so is scouting. Scouting is an inexact science. The one thing you can't project is the size of a guy's heart and how bad he wants something. |
There is a small group, maybe two or three, big-time receivers, and then there is a larger group of receivers a lot like Greg right behind them. With that second group, it all comes down to what a team is looking for in a player as to who they pick, so it is hard to say how high or low any of them will go. |
This year's class is not that good. You wouldn't believe the players from that class. Some of them were just flops. It's a thin year, with a capital T. There's a lot of free agents. |
When you consider there are only 119 I-A colleges, and we might have five or six sign with those schools this year, that's pretty impressive for just a small corridor of the country. |
