More Wide Receivers Please

Four-star wide receiver Manuel Allen of Corona Centennial, who committed to USC last month, has decommitted. Maybe Allen realized USC has 10 wide receivers on its roster for next season. And will probably bring in 2-3 more next year.

  1. USC will sign Jalen Hall from Hawkins and Amon-Ra St Brown of Mater Dei. The top 2 WR’S in the country. USC will CLEAN UP this year. MARK MY WORDS. If you thought 2017 was a great class, 2018 will floor you. One for the ages.

  2. Completely and wholeheartedly agree with you, kid just wants an easier path to the field, or else we have silent commits and cut him loose. Either way not the end of the world. USC will finish with the best class in a decade, I believe.

  3. They need to change the word “commit” to “expressing interest” when describing the teenaged ball player.
    The way the word commit was explained to me is through the breakfast analogy. The farmer who grew the oranges for the juice expressed interest. The farmer who milked the cow for the butter and grew the wheat for the bread expressed interest. The maid who gathered eggs expressed interest. But the pig who gave the bacon was committed to that breakfast.
    Teenagers rarely show that kind of commitment.

    • On the other hand all the colleges shed “commits” if they can trade up in the days leading up to LOI Day, so the flakiness is rampant between teenagers and the 30-65 year old head coaches.

  4. It’s good to see high school players not making knee jerk decisions on what college to attend, because it’s all about opportunities for them to get on the field, not making a coach comfortable with a deep depth chart .

    • It may not necessarily be today’s HS players jumping to commit early alone. The coaches are pushing them to commit for publicity purposes and brag about it to other recruits. Its like a business plan of boasting.
