Safety C.J. Miller of Powder Springs, Ga., has “decommitted” from USC. I don’t begrudge USC from backing off a kid who is a two-star recruit. But what kind of evaluation is being done beforehand that allows him to commit initially? He is now the fourth commit to switch, no doubt at USC’s insistence.
Its self explanatory.
They do full evaluation including a rectal exam. It takes months to get results so that is why they parted ways late in process.
#throwingshadeonUSC
I was afraid they dropped the long snapper. Better keep him.
He’s a 4-Star by ESPN.
I’m gonna say USC lands both Bubba Bolden and Isiah Pola-Mao, cousin of the legendary Troy Polamalu.
Also, people dont realize that USC does the bulk of it’s recruiting before September and after the season is over. Good luck to Miller. He has some good options. We’ll probably see him at Auburn.
Closing strong.. Probably one or two more drops and then the flood gates will open up.. Top 5.
I agree. Top 5. Maybe even top 3. I’d say the flood gates will definitely be open in the coming days.
Several silent commits.. Which I think is dumb..just commit and shut down the recruiting..hate the games .
Me too
Silent commits are necessary so as to keep the target school less clear and also take heat off the recruit who can’t afford to go public. We need an early signing period which will alleviate some of the pressure and let kids call off the jam and end the nonsense.
What was the elite, 5 star BB player’s name you claimed for 8 months was a Andyain’twinning/bozo u lock recruit/commit?
You know Sammy, the guy that signed instead with Kansas U, a real BB program.
What kind of demented kids would sign with SUCLA? LOL!
Those looking to start immediately as true freshmen?
Top 10, maybe.
They are #11 now with (4) 5 stars in the fold..(3) 4 stars …Top 5.
What are the ruins ranked?
Nice, recruiting kids who dislike each other, can’t wait for the finger pointing when one of them f’s up and blames the other.
Better get to bed, that 4am LAX shift loading the UPS truck starts soon!
I can’t understand you.
You should stop gargling balls.
UPS ? Who?.. Lol.. Not me!.. Great company and job though with a 401 and great benefits..
To bad SAS aka illegal alien doesn’t work there either
Is that what you and Bruin Rob do when the orders get screwed up at the Cerritos McDonald’s?
That’s right pinhead, I’m not a rah rah so I must be a bruin, you brain dead fool
A single amoeba has a larger brain than Toejam 12.
Oh, how cute, the Mickie D twins protecting one another. Who is on toilet patrol tonight?
Pinhead? O.K. Bill O’Reilly. If I’m brain dead, then why are you replying to me? Go to the pet store, buy a dog, and name it Clue so you have one.
So anyone who calls you a dickwad is a rah rah?
This is one of the dumbest posts of the decade. Trollism at its very finest.
Are you saying Bolden could decommit again?
He’s locked per his twitter.. His mom said he was in as well.
His teammates are going to ASU. He’s just a little down that they’ll eventually part ways. He’ll be a Trojan.
Curious Sammy, are you some of contact with Bolden?
Yes we had a cup of java together.
USC 36
Wimpwood 14
Excuses, excuses, excuses. You have such an inferiority complex answering a simple question.
Once again, are you in personal contact with Bolton? You seem to know much of what Bolton think, or at least, that’s your BS line.
Sammy, is it wrong to question your claims, and rudely ask for a soupcon of source information fueling your BS fantasies.
The old bozo u bait and switcheroo – you SUCC so we can’t use you – beat it.
How is your hero, The Chimp, doing? Still reeling from that banner 4-8 season? We know Bruin Rob, USC going to and winning the Rose Bowl wasn’t right.
It’s always been a symbiotic relationship, the schools look like they’re getting action and the recruits get exposure and interest they’d never get when they commit. In his case he went to two satellite camps on his own, then came to rising stars, the coaches evidently liked what they saw at the time.. don’t know anything about grades, but he’ll end up better now than if we never offered.
Good point. I heard grades might have been an issue.
Looks like it was a clean breakup.
He is a 4 star and a 3 star elsewhere and runs a 4.4 40…he won’t have any trouble getting on elsewhere
Thoughts and prayers to Matt Leinart and his family. Matt’s mother lost her battle with cancer and passed away. FIGHT ON Mrs. Leinart.
I read that earlier, he did a nice tribute on his page. Sent him a email .. Its sad, my mom is in the final stages of Alzheimers..
God bless you and your family, VF.
Thanks Michael!
Any time, VH!
Prayers to you and your family. My grandmother went through the same thing. Very sad.
Thanks SC
i remember Glen Campbell had a show when i was a kid that i watched. hate it for him, God bless him…
I do as well.. I keep in contact pretty regularly with updates. Always a fan.. My mom was in the entertainment industry. Managed many .. Thats what I do now…
good stuff…
Technically Cj Miller Is a 2 star as Rivals rated him a 2 star. Scout and 247 rated him a 3 star and ESPN had him as a 4 star. If you wanted to throw shade at USC I guess you refer to him as a 2 star; but if you wanted to be a little more informative you could say the rating services do not have a consensus rating. I hope and suspect the coaching staff has a stronger candidate to replace him. Getting down to the crunch time. Recruiting isn’t always pretty. Good luck to CJ.
Lazy to do a recruiting breakdown per site.. The avg is 3.. We should be ok.. Maybe 1-2 more .. The kids want in.
Little nervous SC may miss out on a top DL prospect. If they get one the class will be nothing to sneeze at, and if they get 2 it might be a special class.
I thought 247 was a consensus rating because there was so much variation with Scout, Rivals, and ESPN.
The same evaluation that had the stiff Browne starting ahead of the stud Darnold
According to people who ask what’s going on at Heritage Hall, aka journalists doing their jobs, Miller decommitted because of academics.
It’s like you know less than your readers.
Good one George.
It’s not personal, because recruiting is a business, regardless of what anyone says. And the high school recruits should focus more on that, as oppose to the silly games they play with the media, when it comes to selecting a college.
The only time these recruits have any leverage is up until LOI day. That said they don’t have much power. And the lower their ranking the lower their leverage . I really don’t begrudge these kids taking multiple visits & getting all the swag they can. Their wasn’t an internet or multiple rating services or twitter and on & on when I got out of HS. Suspect I would have acted like many of today’s recruits given the chance. But–LOL–no chance of that for me–a skinny , unathletic, slow klutz.
Trojan5 is spot on. Calling the kid a two star recruit is just irresponsible and just plain wrong.
More speculation blogger?
He’s all Utah EBT boy
Show up on signing day so you can kiss my converse.
Has the v*agra kicked in?
Don’t call a h**ker unless you’re absolutely certain she can find your mommy’s basement.
Sammy, Wolf, Jr. needs to understand that mixing the blue pill and rogaine is a dangerous mix. It could lead to permanent delusion.
I hope the old ticker can take it. He better have his nurse on speed dial.
And how do you know this for sure. Or, are you throwing a bunch of crap against the wall and seeing what sticks, like your Boy Toy Wolf?
2, 3 or 4 stars? Another way to judge a player is by who is recruiting him.
Appalachian State
Arkansas State
Auburn
Central Michigan
Charlotte
Georgia Southern
Georgia State
Louisiana-Monroe
Memphis
Miami (OH)
Minnesota
South Alabama
Southern Miss
Toledo
Troy
Tulane
UCF
USC
Western Kentucky
IMHO – 3 star.
Well for Sammy 3 stars is easily rounded up to 5 stars,
Take it back
Finally, Sammy interjects some fact.
Sammy, name one former bozo u QB to start a Super Bowl since SB 1? Just report the facts Sammy.
#comeon1/25/2017
Let’s not talk about how bad UCLA football is. Past, present, and future. They are terrible.
Ok, if you say so.
Once again Sammy, in our game of truth hurts, please name the former bozo u QB to start a SB in the last 50 years?
Is that all you got Bruin Rob? How about this for a fact. USC has had twice as many players play in the SB than UCLA.
Poor ucla. They can’t even beat a CAL team that canned their coach!
You win. We have none.
Since you like rivalry trivia which program has………………………………..
The most 1st Round Draft Picks????
The most Pro Football Hall of famers????
Those are the more serious achievements.
I’ll be waiting for an answer.
bozo u does. In fact, bozo u has the most NFL busts.
For many bozo u players, the NFL is their Peter Principle level.
Oh, ok.
Between USC and Wimpwood who has more FOOTBALL NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS???
Too tough for you?
I’ll make it easier on you. Who’s won more Rose Bowls??? Heck you play at the Rose Bowl correct?
Bozo u has more VOTED/APPOINTED FB NC’s. BFD!!!! Those voter NC’s aren’t even recognized by the NCAA.
Now remind me how many competitive tournament BB NC’s banners hang in that livery stable Galen Barn.
Note the difference young Sammy, winning a competitive BB tournament championship NC vs receiving a cheap toilet paper certificate certifying bozo u is a ballot box NC.
Sammy, bozo u would have dubious voted NC’s than win a real, single elimination competitive NC’s.
Cupcake on..
Squatter, Thug U aka ugly did not win one of those championships. They were BOUGHT by PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES, err won with the support of Sam Gilbert and Johnny, they call him “Cheetin'” Wooden. May God have mercy on their souls.
SUCLA = sewage water
+ NFL = oil
————————————-
“0” and nada
LMFAO!
What about Pete Bethard or Mike Rae? What bout Holgrom and Reed?
I’ll take your word. Those guys are before my time.
I’m throwing names out there wondering if they did
What’s even worse is Jambo Jambo, 5star recruit from Texas, who has been a complete bust because of bad coaching by the UCLA staff and wasting tax payers money. Next year will more of same.
Remember Carson the Bomber started his bozo senior season with more career int’s than TD passes.
Gosh Pete, you sound like a “rump” republican. That’s a person with a big mouth, little accomplishment and who doesn’t pay California taxes.
I would be happy to purchase you a relocation ticket to a red state. You sound like you’d do well in a Louisiana oil smeared swamp.
What is it with you Hillary Democrats telling people they should move out of Alta Kalifornia? You sound just like Luis Nolasco, a “community engagement and policy advocate” for the far left ACLU of Southern California, who stood up to speak at the city council meeting and attacked many of the white people present, saying they are not actual residents of Rialto.
Nolasco said, “This is my town.”
He said that the important part of the sanctuary city discussion is “who are the people we are talking about.”
The ACLU official said that “the people in this room are not representative of Rialto. Sorry to break it, but growing up here white people were the minority.”
“The reality is that… Latinos (72.4%) are the majority of the city, and that is representative of the city, and that’s going to continue to be the case for future generations,” Nolasco, 26, added.
“It’s kind of mean for me to say it but these people have probably like five years left,” Nolasco said while gesturing to the white attendees at the meeting. A video of the meeting shows that several of them were elderly.
1-8 in Pac-12 in 2017! LMAO!
Hey Bruin Rob, the Rose Bowl replay is on the Pac-12 Network. Watch and learn how a great team closes out a big time bowl game.
Penn State’s coach looked like ruin great Terry Donahue puckering up with the 2 TD lead in the 4th.
SUCLA = A terrible football program
Come on Sybil make your feeble mind up.
It is also possible that some of these players get offered as underclassmen and then don’t show up for their senior season in a way that instills confidence in the coaches. A guy can certainly drop (or raise) on how they do as seniors in high school. It is such an inexact thing that you always have your busts like Ricky Town and your flame outs like Masina.
