2012 Recruiting Thread

[bbhoops]

[Thanks bbhoops.  Do we have a shot with Perry?  Please be honest.  We can take it.

It is possible but not sure how hard KSU is really trying to get him they haven't even made him an offer yet.  Could be a factor in getting him down the road though I would think he would lean towards the coaches giving him the early offers.  But this is only my opinion on this.

Thanks

not sure how hard KSU is really trying to get him, they haven't even made him an offer.

tell perry to keep his head up, he still has time.  if he works hard and improves his game, he still has a chance at earning a ksu offer.

Schepis is a good dude.  I played a ton of games that he officiated in, both baseball and football.

Boy, I bet he'll be under a lot of pressure to perform well enough to earn that elusive KSU offer.

Well, he can wish in one hand and all that.  He's really going to have to step his game up in the next few years if he ever wants to even sniff one of our elite offers.

with ellis falling from a consensus top 5 to a somewhere in the 10+ range in justin young's new 2012 list, you can see the wisdom of the staff's cautious approach.  fortunately, we do not have this not-completely-elite recruit hanging around our 2012 classes' neck like an anchor.

people earlier mocking the staff for not jumping the gun on offering ellis should be the first ones to congratulate the staff for not locking up a falling star.  but we all know that won't happen.

Seems strange that UNC would come all the way to Wichita for a falling star.  Coaches must know something that Scout.com rankers don't know.

bb, we're a sarcastic group here.  We think it's idiotic that KSU hasn't offered Ellis ans we're just having a little fun with our frustration. 

I guarantee that if KSU landed Perry, all KSU fans would kiss Frank Martin on the mouth (even if he still had his goatee).  GUARANTEED.

i would do more than mouth kiss him fwiw. it would be absolutely amazing if Perry came to kstate and everybody here thinks that. AMAZING.
