Good riddance! I guess Stover wants to go to IU and go 5 and 7 every year. We have enough O-Linemen in this class anyway.

Meh, we can do better. Kid obviously didn't want to be here.

Big loss

He's a big dude. Maybe he likes his women on the hefty side and fully clothed all year. Go Hoosiers!

[NCBull]

This sucks.  Could have used him.

We had 9 OL on the roster that were under classmen last year. I can live with losing an OL commitment in this class.

Well that was quick and it looks like Bullypulpit was in the know.

Unfortunately, it turns out that the .1% came to fruition. Indiana had told him that they were full (which is why he decided to commit to USF), but a scholly opened up and the head coach flew down yesterday to personally offer it to Grayson, and he immediately accepted. Out of all the offers he received, USF was always his #2 choice behind Indiana (playing in the Big Ten). It would have been nice to cheer for him locally with his family, but the kid's wish was to either play in the Big Ten or play for UF (he has never been on their radar). 

He is a nice kid with a good head on his shoulders, I wish him the best.

I don't get it... But good luck to him. I also could very well see him transferring to us down the road...

Congrats to him for getting what he wants, but I don't feel a loss of someone who never wanted to be a BULL (that is how I read 3rd choice). I am sure many kids want to play for the "big schools" I just hope we can get back to the giant smashing and create a culture where kids want to be here 1st. Long Long road but I am sure we are getting some kids that truly want to be a BULL first, even if they are ranked lower on the recruiting sites. I will happily take being the 3rd or 4th choice to kids that want to play at the BIG or SEC level, but I won't feel sorry if they don't come here at all.
