Oregon offers 2024 offensive lineman Aydin Breland

“LA VERNE, Calif. — It didn’t take long for Mario Cristobal for be sold on Aydin Breland.

The 6-foot-3, 291-pound prospect, who just completed seventh grade, needed only to show superb athleticism by staying low to the ground and accelerating through a hoops drill for Oregon’s coach to be enamored.

Ducks offensive line coach Alex Mirabal closely watched and provided pointers to Breland during Saturday’s camp at La Verne University, which ended with Oregon offering the 2024 prospect.”

I have vacillated on this one. One the one hand, it appears on its face ridiculous.

On the other, I wonder what the downside may be. Miami either offered or established a relationship with Sony Michelle very early on ... like middle school. He was a Hurricane locked and sealed until they just got so fucking shitty he switched at the 11th hour for Georgia, which was obviously a good move for him.

Still, it took Miami being really bad, otherwise the kid was in.

Recruiting is such a crap shoot ... I suppose it's not a great look, but then, so much isn't a great look in recruiting. Relationship Bidness.

Like I said: I go back and forth on this.
 
You can establish a relationship without being so gimmicky to "offer" kids in 8th grade. There is nothing wrong with coaches talking to kids that show promise but "offering" kids that young is a terrible look.

I don't know if Al Golden or Randy Shannon offered Sony Michelle or not, and I'm not sure I'd care. There is something on its face silly about it, but "terrible" look ... not sure.

The whole process is so gross to begin with. Was it a terrible look when Rick was calling recruits while parked across the street from their house? Or whatever shit he did? I don't know. I remember not caring about any of that shit back then.

 
Just completed 7th grade? Man .....

No shit...that’s kiffin level shit right there

Yah man, I mean we all are football recruiting miscreants to a large degree ... but jeez ... Let kids be kids for awhile before inundating their brains and development with promises and lies. ..

If the kid is talented and a legacy then I’m indifferent to it, but other than, it’s messed up.

If we? were really worried about the kids (they're just kids man!), we would advise them to learn how to swing a golf club or, if they have the goods, a baseball bat and discourage them from coming near this game.

We're not really concerned about the kids. If this recruiting method were ever proven to be effective - I think it's not - then you fuckers would all over it like white on rice.

Give me a break and cut the sanctimony. You're all full of shit.

Ah ... Get off the soapbox ... Draw a line somewhere and make a stand!

... Or if there's grass, play ball!?

Like I said, if it worked, nobody would care. And you know it. I hate faux sanctimony.

I've yet to see an example of it working, but if it did, nobody would care about letting kids be kids. Nobody.
