IMPRESSED WITH THE DIVERSITY OF EMU'S RECRUITING BUT VERY FEW MICHIGAN KIDS ON THIS LISTING. JUCO'S NOT LISTED AS WELL!
BOTTOM LINE - I THINK ENGLISH WILL GET IT DONE RECRUITING WISE. WOULD HOPE FOR SOME VEWRBALS SOON
I've seen lists of say 50 targets and MANY are from Michigan.
That said, I try NOT to get into recruiting this time of year 'CAUSE it is like a woman window shopping at the mall.
The reason she is window shopping is that she isn't able buy what she is looking at.
Likewise, majority of the early offers are to kids who won't give EMU a 2nd look. Many have OFFERS from BCS schools. Isn't that the death knell for EMU's hopes????
English and staff you hoping they can get the kid to make an unofficial visit but that is little to get optimistic about.
My favorite was a kid Arnett. I kept getting Scout.Com e-mail alerts: Saginaw's Arnett has offer from MSU. Arnett has offer from USC.
And I'm thinking I'm receiving these updates cluttering my mailbox????? :muttering:
Does the kid even open the mailings from EMU????
Just like my real estate agent e-mail that she has a great value on a house - marked down from 900K to 800K. Yeah, baby, yeah, great deal (10% off) but...
(p.s. the numbers are fictious).
