Is Greg Brown still in play for the Pokes?
I heard they think Pena won’t make it to campus.
That’s too bad . Makes you wonder though .
What a POS.
My guess from what Boynton said is that perhaps he had conversations with one or two guys who have expressed concern to him that they think they might not get much playing time from now on considering the new players who have signed. Therefore coach knows there is a good possibility one or two spots will likely be open before school starts. That is why he sounds confident about the need to keep recruiting for the upcoming season. Coach knows more than he is allowed to say.
Why?
Doesn’t Brown announce his decision tomorrow (Friday)?
Pena not gonna qualify. He is lowest rated guy. This could work out great for us!! If we get Brown wow! Even if not I bet we pick up a quality player. This is a Great recruiting class!!
I am not qualified to speak intelligently on the matter of scholarships but my wife (who played college ball) tells me that in some cases schools will award full academic scholarships to players they want if the athletic scholarships are full. Or, move a kid on scholarship to academic scholarships if he has good grades already. There are ways to find the money, so I am told.
