5 biggest recruiting misses in the last 5 years

4/24/17 1:34pm

How about Bolles?

warp

He was a big miss

4/24/17 1:43pm

Fittingly, he went to Utah because of recruiting mrs.

How about not a fit? Can't shoehorn in someone who's blatantly not a HC fit.

4/24/17 2:03pm

what?

warp

4/24/17 2:11pm

Yes

4/24/17 4:53pm

so we pulled our offer?

Sorry, but you clearly have no idea what you're talking about.

You mean because he would have had to divorce his wife who wanted him to go to

russkiejedi

4/24/17 2:34pm

Yeah, anybody that serves a mission can handle the HC

4/24/17 3:13pm

Sorry, but you are wrong here. He's a good kid, and any

LB kid from Wiscy..legacy

Beigel

He only had one arm, who could have expected him to be so good

cougaman

4/24/17 1:49pm

What was wrong with his arm? I don't recall any problems there.

bluecheese

4/24/17 1:55pm

There was a picture when he was being recruited that made it look like he had

cougaman

4/24/17 1:58pm

I hate missing out on Legacy kids

4/24/17 1:52pm

Tangaloa Kaufusi.

My cousin married a Kaufusi that played at the U. I think they just have one son

cougaman

4/24/17 1:55pm

He's not a miss though

4/24/17 2:18pm

Honestly...I'd put Wayne Kirby. Kalani's biggest feather so far, imo.

mantis mutu

4/24/17 2:00pm

I considered him

4/24/17 2:20pm

Britton Covey, Jake Murphy

D.T. Survivor

4/24/17 2:10pm

I'll be honest I straight up forgot about Covey

4/24/17 2:23pm

and none of them played QB....

4/24/17 2:47pm

Yeah, adding Star and Lowell to the mix--that would have been great

D.T. Survivor

4/24/17 4:04pm

Jake Murphy wasn't a recruiting miss, he picked BYU. We just botched his mission

Uh, botch... right

gmj81

4/24/17 5:13pm

Lol, if you weigh under 160 it is never a real big miss.

4/24/17 4:15pm

Possibly up to 3 OL

4/24/17 2:25pm

Good picks

4/24/17 2:26pm

I only consider underrecruited kids a miss. Some just choose t o go elsewhere.

4/24/17 2:44pm

I think you're right

4/24/17 3:15pm

Chase Hansen we could have offered as a QB with potential to switch to S.

CougaRR4L

4/24/17 3:09pm

The sad thing is having these kids on the teams instead of who we did might have

Manti Te'o

I'll drink to that.

I really get your point......, but this is how college football works. I live in

Those teams have much, much wider nets to cast looking for recruits.

vagabonder

4/24/17 4:56pm

I didn't know we were losing so many recruits to Miami.

vagabonder

4/24/17 4:45pm

The only answer to this is Star Lotulelei, we just gave up on a first round pick

Dissenter

4/25/17 6:13pm

Saying there's only one answer isn't giving that staff enough credit for

4/25/17 6:35pm

the others are mistakes, but they happen. Star was a catastrophic failure

Dissenter

4/25/17 6:43pm

na, you're taking it too easy on them. Plenty of big failures.
