That, along with a felony is the Cryami way of saying that a recruit is a "lock". :wink:

Maybe Gore got a bit flustered before he took it as a friend told him to "Break a leg" when wishing him luck.

well I'd say they nailed that one.

In related news Shaq has been classified as severely tall, Bo Derek was classified as severely hot and Ron Jeremy was classified as severely gifted. :wink2:

Patterson, Mike USC 9

The hits just keep on coming. I guess he picked up the extra three points for putting "USC" on his test whereas Gore only had a "U".

He had more letters in his name and got extra points for still getting it right. :lol:

I love that MoC's score dropped from last year, even if it was only by one point.

Interesting that David Pollack (DE) scored 11 points higher than David Greene (QB), but that isn't as interesting as the fact that Greene and MoC had the same score. :biggrin:
