The first handful of comments commended the young man on making an academic choice, the next line of comments are conversing about the offerings at the different universities.

Re: 2016 Recruiting List
Originally posted by RabbitObsessed View Post[Citation Needed]Originally posted by MontanaRabbit View PostOne thing this does is bring into question the recruiting process. This isn't an attack on USD, but at what point should coaches quit recruiting a kid that has committed. The fact that he committed to SDSU was public knowledge yet USD still pursued him. Seems a little unethical to me although in this case it appears this is the best place for him to get his education so maybe this is an exception.Originally posted by Kemo View PostNah, he switched because Bob and him saw eye to eye on a lot of things. Particularly on how it's okay to go back out on your word after telling a team you'll be with them for the upcoming season.
He shouldn't have too much trouble passing USD's Business Ethics class either, as long as he studies hard for the "offering illegal contracts" portion of the course.
I'm only kidding (mostly).
Edit: Not trying to take a shot at Kemo or Montana, just stating that when you start recruiting elite prospects, you need to be prepared for the unethical side of the recruiting process, including other schools negatively recruiting against SDSU. It's just part of the deal. I don't worry about it, but I have also not come to invest emotionally in the decisions of 17/18 year old men. If they want to go somewhere else, fine, next man in.
