All of the Evangel players that would get up in front of the whole congregation and announce "after much thought and prayer....." What a show, what a mockery.

Also, the Harvey Williams announcement, that may have been the best one....Texas A& M thought they had him bought and paid for and he changed his mind that morning and told NO ONE.

Dude jumped out of an airplane today to announce that he was going to attend Ole Miss. I guess he is the winner now

Dre Kirkpatrick committed to Alabama with great fanfare and pulled out a Braves hat and put it on. Genius thought it was a Bama hat.

quote:

How did they find out the cal guy didn't have any communication with the schools?


Because he didn't have communication with any schools he went to Div II.

The school's guidance counselor was curious how someone with a 1.8 GPA was getting into Cal and the HC sent an email to Cal's Oline coach thanking him.


quote:

"After sitting down with my family, I came down to two choices. It was Oregon and Cal. And I decided that, uh, I'm gonna be playing football at the University of California."

He swiftly put on Cal cap, pulling it snug. Then he stood and waved to each side of the gym, particularly to Betts and some of his other buddies who were wearing colored wigs. A music teacher cued the band. Grandpa George slipped on a Cal hat himself. Then Kevin was ushered out to meet with the local media, where he continued to bluff his way into people's hearts:

Q: What was the deciding factor?
Kevin: Coach [Jeff] Tedford and I talked a lot, and the fact that the head coach did most of the recruiting of me kind of gave me a real personal experience with that coach. And we had like a really good relationship.

(Truth: Tedford had never laid eyes on Kevin in his life.)

Q: How nice is it to finally have this over with? You can finally be a senior in high school.
Kevin: I didn't really have a bad recruiting experience, but like every other guy, I'm glad it's over. I'm glad it'll just go back to normal.

(Truth: Nothing would ever be normal again.)

Yeah there was a big article on it a while back. I ended up feeling sorry for the guy almost. He was dumb as a box of rocks and apparently did some bragging early in his career he had to back up I think

I think he was playing at some community college when the article was written

Article on the Cal kid and how it all came about. Long article, but good.

That's a Bama cap. Braves A doesn't have the stupid mullet swoosh at the top.
