I admire Prince for speaking to Nebraska high school coaches. That crowd consisted almost entirely of husker fans, and he went anyway. I would have hated public speaking in that situation, but he seemed to handle it with good humor.

He left them speechless.

I loved the "Callahan the real coach" comment.  RP kills with the inside jokes that nub fans don't get.

    Hey, basketball!!!
Very true, Prince has too big of an ego to be serious about that comment. Plus way more success for RP than HCBC in both of their first seasons.

Ron loves sarcasm...

And he used words bigger than two syllables.  Confusion was a factor.

It's definitely an eyebrow raiser.  Kind of reminds me of the pictures shown at the beginning of Wrong Turn.

They were probably waiting for RP to hit a coach's GF.

"Great, I dazzled you," he said. "The session's over. Coach Callahan's next. Wake up and listen to the real coach."
I'm not sure if I like the fact that he made the comment or not.  It's funny yes, but it basically negated any good will he earned during the first 44 minutes he spent talking.  So, why even waste the time up there?

He was instructing them on the finer points of how to assist Nubby recruits in texting Callahan to inform him they were heading to KSU.   :jail: :dancin: :sleep:

I can't wait till you guys go 0-5 to start off the '09 season and you all turn on Prince.  Prediction, FireRonPrince.com will be the highest trafficed KSU website come '09.

This was interesting, too:

He likes to recruit small running backs and cornerbacks. Look at the NFL Hall of Fame, Prince said. You won't find big backs. They're all 5-foot-8 or 5-9. Yet every coach is looking for the 6-2 backs and corners. "I don't get it," he said.

I wish Talib was shorter.

They should institute some sort of coaching knowledge for recruiting Nowledge trade.  Both sides would benefit greatly.

He doesn't consider coaching in the NFL "Shangri-La." He's more interested in developing the "educated man."

42 RB's and DB's in the NFL Hall of Fame.  3 fit Prince's description.

I think Prince meant to say that he wants 7% of our RBs and CBs to be 5'8" or 5'9".  That being said, it is kind of amazing how people expect teams like KSU and ku to recruit corners that are bigger than the typical NFL CB.
