I lived in Honolulu for two years. These kids over there aren't facing 5a competition, but they are all either 300+ or 240 6-3ish and athletic as hell. Their jv teams consist of a race that develops extremely young. By 15, these guys look like grown men. Its amazing how few of their race are small or unathletic. Its a direct result of a small population breeding the fiercest warriors over hundred of years. You should know pacific islanders, specifically in a 100 mile radius of this kids home, have the highest nfl players per capita. These Hawaiians are warrior descendants and this guy has more than a chip on his shoulder. I want him on our team bad.



Pagano is playing against these kids that you speak of and I'm sure it's making him better but he's not of native Hawaiian descent from what I've read. I think he's African American and Italian and was born in California and then moved to Hawaii for his father's job.

Yeah, it was a general response to about 10 replies along the lines of the competition in ga blows hi schools away. That I digress from.

he claims one:

"I learned about the offer from my coach, Coach Martinez," said Pagano. "He and Coach (Kennedy) Polamalu were talking about me a couple of days ago and they said they really liked me, my size, my speed my strength, my motor and they said they wanted me to play for them......so they offered. I talk to Coach Polamalu and Coach Ed (Orgeron) once a week and also on Facebook."


Not true. Guaranteed. Been verified by many sources familiar with SC football.

He has an offer from LSU, Bama,UF and about 50 other programs so I think I'll side with them over big Ed. Ed is strangled by limited schollies. If he had the full 25 Pagano would be offered. Not to be disrespectful to USC or Ed but I'll take our DL coach and his scouting report at this point. We do alright on the DL.

Love the attitude. If we shied away from kids with some attitude, we wouldn't be the favorties for the national title this year. You don't win with pussies and choir boys. TM7 might be the best player in the country and also may have the most "swag" or whatever you kids choose to call it. I call it kicking arse and telling you about it as we do it.


USC does not have offers to waste. If Pagano is even remotely a headcase-- or immature it seems to me-- he will not be given an offer (as you alluded to). We have targets we have higher on our boards.

And I'll trust Ed O when it comes to our program.

So you would trust Helen Keller as a judge in a beauty contest?

His attitude is not good.

Furthermore, he does not understand Georgia HS football...

If he is a loose cannon, don't we have enough of that "in house?"



Strecthing it a little here Missy.

I love the kids attitude. He is out of line. He is just giving his opinion. They asked him what he thought and he told them. At least he isn't some suck arse who just says what he thinks people want to hear.

Isn't going to Clemson consistent with shying away from competition at camp? Pagano might have a point.

Scott Pagano, 4-star Defensive Tackle, Honolulu (HI) Moanalua -- "Good for him, but to be honest I don't really care. That doesn't influence me one bit. He's overrated playing against JV guys as you can see on film. Why do you think he never went to any camps?"


If this guy was committed somewhere already, the board would destroy him for saying something like that, but since we have a shot at him, it's just swag.

Dude must be hung like a walrus. We don't need guys like that strutting around the locker room making everyone else feel inadequate.

SWAG Overload


Did the greatest DL to ever play the game (Reggie White) ever express such "swag"? All this swag stuff doesn't impress me.
