If recent reports and CBs are to be believed.

No huge shocker. In spite of what anyone says, it was always a longshot that he'd end up here. Would have been nice if Paris could have landed him, but it was way too late in the process. It was like trying to stop a freight train going full speed with 10 feet of track left.

We'll be ok.

Well, yeah, it's never a done deal until it's a done deal. You're right on that. Given our history, though, I'm pessimistic about our chances of keeping a top in-state recruit away from Duke or UNC. Hope I'm wrong.

Let's hope Paris uses Dawn to his advantage the way Beamer has and some of the her recruiting mojo rubs off and we can keep him here to play for the home team.

Well he committed to Frank on his OV so we had more of a shot than some naysayers want to admit.

But the key word there is had. Now that Frank is gone our shot is pretty much gone as well.

This is not true. I have knowledge of the family and they said this commitment never occurred and were frankly ticked off that it was implied by a former coach and some local media. This little exaggeration may cost us his commitment as much as any coaching change.

Actually glad to see that now. Martin would have made it look like he was coming here to save his job.

Not USC’s fault whatsoever that this ‘rumor’ was out there. Had GG publicly committed and tied that to Martin staying at Carolina, not sure Martin would have been dismissed. I credit the young man and his family for not casting this scenario into the sea of Martin’s future here.

If Jackson wants to play for South Carolina, it seems foolish to go someplace because a former coach and local media said something he didn't like. If wants to play Paris and SC, commit. If not, choose a different school.
