Four seasons later, Jones, now just 5-8, 180 pounds, continues to prove that size doesn't matter. Jo
He had offers from Michigan and Boston College this summer, but both schools rescinded their offers.
A steal ... if Jones qualifies ...
Jimmy, why don't you take a break?
If all you can do is bitch when CU lands the Gotorade POTY for New Jersey, it's time to get away.
I'd still take 2 RBs. Maybe wait until summer and see if we can snag McConico or Howard as a late qualifier like we did with Will Jefferson last year.
Wow, I do not understand why some of you have so much confidence in Hawkins.
No one else offers him...let me guess, Hawkins is just better at scouting players than the big-name coaches.
Talent is not the issue here. Scouting is not the issue. It has everything to do with grades. Considering where we are, is it that bad an idea to take some risks on guys with grade issues?
There are many talented players, with grade issues, who have offers. Countless, talented players with grade issues and offers.
He had offers from BC and Michigan that were rescinded due to grades. Again, feel free to bitch and complain about plenty, but I do not see much downside to this commitment.
First, where do you see that he had offers from BC to Michigan?
Again, I can find you a list of talented players with grade concerns who have CURRENT offers. Offers that have yet to be rescinded.
You have too much trust in this staff.
Sigh. No use arguing with you.
I think my feelings on this staff and this recruiting class have been very clear.
Then quit being so damn sensitive. Hell, I'd love to be proven wrong when it comes to my confidence in Hawkins' ability to do anything. Just once.
If Jones makes it to CU, I'd be pleasantly surprised. If he becomes a star at CU, I'd do a triple backflip. I just don't see either happening (especially the latter). The reason? H-A-W-K-I-N-S
Why are we the only ones offering a kid who will not make grades. Embarrasing. Hawk is just padding the recruiting commit list so it doesn't look so bad numbers wise. No way in the world Rutgers, Pitt, Connecticut or Syracuse don't offer this kid if there is ANY chance he qualifies. For goodness sakes, he's the gatorade player of the year in New Jersey on the best team. Every school knows about him and his skills.
