We hear that there are more double secret, hush-hush rumors going on that SW, Matt and his entourage of ladies will be doing a road trip to AZ for the "Game"! Wolfeee, Wolfeee, Wolfeee. Gives us more information than this. How about the latest rumors about Coach Martin now headed to SDSU, or to Utah State, err wait, I mean he's headed to Iowa State... no wait, rumors now have him going to... Come on SW, quit picking up your information off of Sepulveda Blvd! Fight On!

Why would anyone question Caesar, whose Trojans win the Rose Bowl and finish #2 or #3 in an "off year?"

All Hail!

How about a partially blind item with names of the commits or the State or HS they're from?

Of course everyone wants the names or at least the schools these "secret recruits" are coming from. However, wouldn't that defeat the purpose?

If SW went on here and gave the names of the recruits, it could make the "secret recruits" change their minds or if they have verbally committed to one school, but PC was able to get them to USC, they could stay with their original choice. Maybe, just maybe that is why they are secret commitments.

Another example...maybe Herbstriet was right about Miles going to Michigan, however, we'll never know. Maybe part of the deal to go to Michigan was to not say anything until after the SEC Championship. Unfortunately, a Michigan source told Kirk and he let it slip on Game Day and Miles had to say something...so instead of possibly going to Michigan he decided to stay at LSU because they (Michigan) couldn't keep their mouths shut.

First off, kptrojan is a clown.

Now we hear this every year, SC has a few big names in the hat and they almost never pan out. I'll just wait until the ink dries on the LOI's to see who went where, can any of you even stand to watch another "hat" show on FSW??
