'09 AZ DT Corey Adams (Arizona State Signee)

[sflbuck]

Good Luck Corey- Would have loved to follow you career in S&G.

On a refreshing side note, you gotta like how Corey did it. When he was sure- there were no hats on a table, no Hulk Hogan poses. Just call the coaches and have your HS coach announce the choice. And by letting everyone know when he was sure, we can fill his spot if we want to.

Well... just got back to Chicago after a two day trip to NYC. Must admit... I'm sad about this news. Wish Corey the best of luck in the years to come. He's a good one! For sure! Would have loved to see him in S&G.

Still working on Devon Kennard? How'd you let Craig Roh and Taylor Lewan leave the southwest paradise for the septic tank?

Can't blame a kid for wanting to stay close to home. Good luck, Corey! Congrats reg.

Still working on Devon Kennard, Vontaze Burfict and Randall Caroll. Hopefully the Corey Adams commitment helps with them. Kennard visited this past weekend and Burfict is coming in this weekend and Carrol is next weekend.

Craig Roh never wanted to stay in-state. He has family in Michigan and never gave ASU much of a chance. Taylor Lewan's dad wanted to go to Michigan when he was a kid, but they wouldn't have him, so he went to Minnesota instead. So Lewan already had Big-10 ties and basically followed his friend Roh to Michigan.

ASU offered Lewan way early in the recruiting process - way before Michigan even knew he existed, but he too wanted to get out of state. ASU needs an OT commit more than anything. I can't figure out why we can't land ANY!! ZERO! You would figure someone would want to come because we have ZERO depth at OT and get super early playing time. Actually I do know why. Our OC and O-line coach SUCK and no one wants to play for them. ASU is getting good defensive recruits.

It all starts with defense. Can't go wrong starting there.

Good luck Corey!! You and Johnny Simon would have made one heck of a duo on the inside.

I want to thank all of you Buckeye fans for being cool/classy on the commitment of Corey. It always sucks losing a recruiting battle (ASU loses a lot of them and I know how it feels) but you guys have been very respectful to Corey and myself and I appreciate it. Good luck with the rest of your recruiting this year and please don't let Tajh Boyd end up at Oregon!

On BP we always respect and stand behind the recruit, you on the other hand can go home.

Actually, I hope he sticks around. He has proven useful.

OK with Corey to ASU as long as you beat Pete with him.
Best wishes Corey!!

Thanks alpo. You would miss me in the RR!!!

I'm telling you guys now, I think we have a shot at USC in 2 years, especially if this recruiting class ends up how I hope it ends up.

[Mr_Burns]

First off, congrats to Corey on making one of the most important decisions in his life thus far. Hopefully he has a healthy and successful career.

If I'm not mistaken, you are saying that ASU is going to be much better. Unfortunately, that hurts your chances of beating USC. Attract enough talent to be a 43 point underdog and call it a day. That has proven to be the most effective way of beating them.

That's funny, and probably the truth. They only seem to lose to the teams who they overlook. They kill teams they don't overlook.
