2016 Recruits

Re: 2016 Recruits

After all, one of Nagy's key recruiters stayed at SDSU...

And the other went to Wisconsin. It'll be interesting to see how this all shakes out for Nagy at Wright State...

Re: 2016 Recruits

IMHO, the people who are expressing "surprise" are misspelling "expected." As others note, SDSU should benefit from Otzelberger's recruiting network he's built at ISU--possibly more than Wright State will benefit from Nagy and his staff's network. After all, one of Nagy's key recruiters stayed at SDSU.

Re: 2016 Recruits

Im guessing those same surprised (bitter) people would be just fine if we landed some players TJ was recruiting to Iowa State

I'm neither surprised nor bitter about the accepted ethical realities involved in college recruiting. But it's worth noting that they differ from the accepted ethical practices in some other professions, such as those with non-compete contracts.

I guess I haven't noted any surprise or bitterness in the observations posted about Nagy offering SDSU recruits at Wright State. It is the way it goes in most instances. Frankly, if the NCAA didn't restrict players from transferring by requiring a release or forcing them to forfeit a year of eligibility by sitting out a year there is NO DOUBT that many more players would leave with their coach.

Re: 2016 Recruits

Are people really surprised by this? Nagy and company spent time getting to know these kids' abilities and personalities. Just because they change jobs doesn't mean they have a bunch of new kids that they have can offer. Recruiting, I assume, is a process that takes some time.

Re: 2016 Recruits

They got to know those recruits on SDSU resources. Just the way it is!

Likewise, I would assume that SDSU is on the radar for kids that Iowa State spent resources on.

Like you say, just the way it is.

And there is a chance the Jackrabbits may benefit from some of TJ's connections established in Ames or Washington.

Re: 2016 Recruits

According to VerbalCommits Wright State only has three scholarship offers for 2017. All three are to kids that SDSU has offered and all three after Nagy and crew arrived. I think it is probably a fair assumption.

Thanks for pointing that out, NebJack.

What are you basing this on?

Re: 2016 Recruits

Nagy is probably recruiting him. He seems to be going after all the guys that SDSU had its sights set on.

Re: 2016 Recruits

Here is an article where Loudon talks about his release. It sure sounds more like he did not fit into the new SDSU system to be.

I took his comments to mean that the head coach moved on and so is he. I wish him well.

Well his assistant coach that was in charge of recruiting went with him so that would make sense.

The guy probably fits into Nagy's system more anyways.
