Dallas Mavericks: Generations

If anyone is wondering the schools that offered him are Mississippi St (signed), LSU, Bama, Arkansas, Auburn, Cal, Clemson, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Missouri, Notre Dame, Ole Miss, Oregon State, TCU, Tennessee, and Texas A&M.

Rivals has visits listed at Mississippi State, Ole Miss, and LSU.

Yeah it could be bad for a lot of schools, and I don't doubt that with a few exceptions the SEC has the best bag men. There is nothing to stop them from going down the list asking school by school who offered money to play.

The Mississippi schools are the Serbia of the SEC. They suck, but they could also bring the whole thing down 1914-style.

Every school pays, it is just a matter of how much. In Last Chance U, one of those poo poo,-bottom tier FBS schools cut off a request from a potential transfer stating they comply with all NCAA bylaws and it was clear that the dude was going to be asked for some cash to come to play ball.

Spurrier's name and persona really helped at first, and then the state of SC had some excellent talent for a couple years. But that well ran dry and then Spurrier stopped caring (and I guess kids stopped caring about him, too). We've been recruiting at a consistently decent level for a while now, sure, but we've never had a mind-blowing, Ole Miss kind of class. 2007 is the biggest one we've ever had and I think it was just barely a top-10 class nationally -- which is still very good, especially for us, but has not happened before or since.

The well didn't run dry.

Dabo's jesus power overdid Spurrier's old drunk grandpa routine.

My uncle does some scouting for clemson in spartanburg. it's one of the most fertile recruiting grounds in the country.

Dabo obviously didn't help matters, but Clemson gets a lot of talent from out of state -- they haven't been as hyper-local as us, at least not for some time. Most of their biggest stars (Boyd, Watkins, Watson, Spiller, etc.) have been dudes from Florida or Virginia or Georgia. SC in general has been in a bit of a "down" period for high school football talent, though obviously even if there are only a handful of elite guys, Clemson can get them all now.

Clemson/SC will always be their biggest rivalry and it's low key one of the biggest college football rivalries in the country.

There is a push to start including echocardiograms for high school physicals. I understand how many people that is and how difficult it would be to implement, but a D1 team could easily afford to do this.

Anne Ryman is reporting that ASU will not extend Todd Grahams contract by one year, as it had done in years past (had been extended in 13, 14, 15 & 16). This means Graham will have three years left on his contract after this season.

I think his best chance to leave was when mike norvell left and jaelen strong got drafted. He's had unfortunate QB injuries, hasn't seen a QB through to their senior season, and his defense hasn't been consistent at all since.

This is a smart move. Esp after their time together at ECU. That should alleviate some of his never been a head coach and is 33 concerns with a sage guy like McNeill to help him out.

Does anyone else at a similar level even want him though? I'm not sure he really has the opportunity to jump after the last couple seasons. This seems much more like ASU being ready to move on if they have another crappy season, not him being on the verge of jumping ship again.

Yeah Graham's been at ASU for like 6-7 years now and losing Norvell hurt a lot. Last year he finished losing 6 straight and got murdered by Arizona. I'm guessing the lack of extension is basically telling him he's on a short leash and has 2 years at most to right the ship.

It's hard to tell how hot a name he'd be if ASU tossed him. He'd likely get picked up somewhere but I can't see him having that high a profile.

Reminder that ECU had Oklahoma's coaching staff two years ago and pissed it away because ECU thought Duke's offensive coordinator was the next Tom Herman.
