I agree with DD 100%. A coach would be very stupid to just stop recruiting when all the scholarships appear taken, what happens if one opens up in 2 months...do you start going after players again - at that point they are spoken for. Get used to it, we have secured kids that are pretty desirable to most D1 programs, unlike the last two coaches who depended on others left overs. With all the talent the law of averages take over and someone leaves.

: The likelyhood for somebody leaving gets

: getting, due to the influx of talent. Couple
: that with a serious injury and frustration
: may start to set in with a player or two
: (and understandably so) Monson hints at it

: that bring down the program, ie, Porter and
: Gant, I think it will be very tough for not
: at least one player to move on.

: It sounds like the staff went after Shephard
: hard so he must be a good one. Congrats to
: the entire staff. It will be really nice if
: the program can sign Burton in the spring
: because he is also a real player.

: If the program can continue to schedule
: great road games and really overhaul the
: home schedule with some quality opponents I
: believe the talent is their to get the
: community excited and attracted some real
: national attention. Good times are ahead.
