2012 UC Football Official Thread

I think it's perfectly fine if a new staff decides certain commits don't fit into their long-term plans. There have been a handful of recruits who had committed to UK who have been told to look elsewhere by new HC Stoops. You gotta tell the kids, though. Just ignoring them until they get the hint and decommit on their own is not the right way to do business.

That rule is about discussing a player's recruitment with the media. Totally separate from the rules involving coach-prospect contact.

For what it's worth, I think the whole dinner story was bogus too. But the other thing, they messed up a bit. A handful of phone calls' worth of common courtesy would have saved them the dust-up. You can bet the kids they wanted to keep heard from them ASAP.

Enjoy Tubs Cincy fans. When he wants to, he can be a dang coach. We only fired him when he decided to slack off in recruiting and not care enough to have a decent season. But in his glory days from 04-06, he was one of the best coaches in CFB. Arguably a top 5 coach in AU history. Hope he brings you guys success.
