Of course he’ll commit
Hell yeah, he’ll commit. Maybe Penn State should adopt the new ‘if you break it, you buy it’ strategy. (Curtesy of Orlando Sentinel)
Orson Charles, a rising senior tight end from Tampa’s Plant High, admitted to the Tampa Tribune that his action caused Florida’s 2006 national championship trophy to shatter during a recruiting visit last weekend.
Charles told the paper that the bump-heard-round-Gator-Nation happened on the eve of the spring game, when he leaned down to get a picture with Tim Tebow’s 2007 Heisman Trophy. He said the bump was obviously inadvertent, but the sound of the crystal ball hitting the ground was shocking.
Hevesy said now he had to commit to UF, Meyer asked him how it felt to be a Gator
How is this not a recruiting violation? Florida basically paid for his commitment with a new trophy.
New strategy for the Lion’s coaching staff:
Step 1: Invite highly touted recruit to Louis and Mildred Lasch Football facility
Step 2: Place one of our two National Championship trophies precariously on a coffee table in a crowded hallway.
Step 3: Shove or trip recruit into table causing crystal trophy to shatter
Inevitable result? Recruit will be so dismayed and guilt ridden that he has no choice but to commit barring a miracle.
Think its a good idea? You can actually help Penn State buy replica national trophies for this novel recruiting strategy here at Danbury Mint for $129. A small price to pay for great recruits.
