Rahshead Johnson actually committed to Steve Sarkisian twice: Once at Washington and once at USC. And let’s remember USC dropped wide receiver Shay Fields and then took Johnson.
FieldsĀ set a Colorado freshman record with 50 receptions and tied the mark for the most catches in a first game of a Colorado career (eight), and was second the team in receptions, yards (486) and touchdowns (5).
Now I’m sure if Johnson was at Colorado he would have played and if Fields were at USC, he probably would have redshirted. But in retrospect, this doesn’t seem like the greatest recruiting decision.
Wolf…why try ?!?! why ?
there is no try.
there is only do, or do not.
a doer, the wolfman is
Yes, the wolf is a doodoo.
Johnson could be slotted at WR or CB. Fields was a strictly a WR. USC needed DBs. Didn’t need WRs. Was also limited on offers.
In hindsight, not the best decision, but also was not an incorrect decision.
answer your own question, you did, wolfman.
many recruiting errors the troxans have made.
misleading the recruiting numbers are, hmmm?
herh herh herh!
You write like you are Buckets cousin, or perhaps brother. Do they give writing lessons in the Cadre?
just another attack on Sark !!! had he kept Fields a Coach O commit , he would have attacked him for not recruiting his own players , under scholarship reductions
Why when I think of what Scott Wolf is to the USC Trojan sports beat I think of what Michael Moore is to the political beat?
Ken is a well known Medical School dummy Cadaver sales model. Even though Kenny is alive he has the hallow look of 3 – 5 day old cadaver.
Drivel
talk nonsense.
“he was driveling on about the glory days”
synonyms:talk nonsense, talk rubbish, babble, ramble, gibber, blather, prattle, gabble, waffle
“you always drivel on”
timmy are you furious? Calm down, come to terms with your lot in life – SUCC loser.
I think you’re a hack but it’s always entertaining to see what BS you can come up with. It’s always usually centered around an obscure obsession with a recruit, coach or some throwaway comment.
CLASSIC WOLF LOGIC!
Glad to see that Scott’s hindsight is still 20-20…..which is rather surprising when you consider in which orifice his head is placed……
I just don’t understand this post by Wolf.
Just troll bait, as are 90% of Scottie’s posts.
You mean every recruit doesn’t always work out perfectly? Who would have thought?!
You’re talking Colorado here. If you made the same comparison with a player who went to Stanford, or Oregon, or Arizona State, then sure, you could make some sense. But when a medium sized fish goes to a very small pond and puts up numbers on a team that wins not a single conference game…? Tough to learn lessons there. We could easily say that Shay Fields led Colorado to Zero victories in conference. Why the hell would we want that?
McNair is coming and its going to get real nasty and Ugly…..and you boneheads deserve it!
ESPN just released graduation rates for last seasons Top 25 teams. Can you guess which team finished FIRST….and which team finished 24th (just ahead of MISSISSIPPI)??????????????
I guess a couple of you dummies failed BALLROOM Dancing!
I’m not Clowning!
McNair starts in a couple weeks. We shall see whether anything you say is worth the time to read. So far, I think not. Lets see how the trial goes.
Re your response….I wouldn’t expect anything less from a Kool Aid Drinking Sunshine pumping RAH RAH like yourself!
fit UN CLOWN!
If you expected it, why comment. Good to see I am getting, or got to you little guy.
What does this have to do with football? Nothing, go post on the graduation rate blog. Oh yeah, there is none because NO ONE CARES!
Hey Marv, SUCCster’s doan’t need no stinking edukdation.
We’re all smarter than uclaownszilch. You and your constant, feeble attempts to impress us all are to be pitied. I feel sorry for you.
What do you say when anybody blows in your ear Stinky?
Ruins need handicap parking. Haha
Little Petey didna know squat. RIGHT!
You’re right again wolf, we should have kept Shay, and not taken Adoree. Why doesn’t anyone listen to Scotty?
Based on their freshmen season output i”d take Shay.
I believe it, and this is why ruins are losers.
Merv, just SUCC’d down a 40 of Auld Self-Delusion.
If only they would listen to you wolfie. I for one cannot understand why they even hesitate to not listen to you.
This subject is a non-sequitor. Maybe if no one but the trolls would comment when Wolf goes irrelevant like this, he’d pause for moment before doing so again.
First of all, at this moment in time, it takes signficant gall to complain about Sark’s recruiting. Second, I can’t conceive how this egregious error is going to affect the outcome of even one game. Please, someone bring me up to speed on that.
hind sight is always 20/20. On paper, it made more sense to take Johnson over Fields… Can’t fault Sark for that but his coaching is where he falters. No one really gets better under him. Shaq Thompson didn’t really blossom till Peterson got a hold of him.
Back to the question. Simple answer, yes. So was Orgeron.
Comical as usual. Pretty much anyone on SC’s depth chart is good enough to be the #2 WR at Colorado and rack up almost 50 yards a game, playing at least a quarter and a half in garbage time. SC just dropped two versions of this guy to make scholarship room. I doubt he’d beat out Steven Mitchell for limited reps. I wish the kid well, but he doesn’t come across as a really unique, irreplaceable talent.
Scottie: if you say Fields would have redshirted at USC, then there is nothing to compare with the redshirted Johnson – they both would have redshirted with no statistics from this past year.
And somehow this is a story?
Depends on who you ask, because the freshmen receivers for USC ain’t bad.
