Like you I have heard that maybe he has taped something but have not been able to confirm that. After talking to people tonight I still contend that he is going to say USC in his announcement.
I love how the USC board is sooo nonchalant about Jesse Scroggins and VN has a 700 page thread about him. Someone tell Jesse that USC doesnt really care about him.
JUS BEING ME AND PLAYING THE LEADER SHIP ROLE WILL MAKE ME A SUCCESSOR IN LIFE...I WANT TO HELP OTHERS BUT IF THEY DONT WANT TO BE HELPED THEN HEY WHAT CAN I DO YOU KNOW...........................
If they do, they're ridiculous. There is no way that Phil would have generated this much excitement and been involved in such a high race for a players services.
The staff can only do so much without major violations. I feel like Kiffin and staff have given themselves just as much a chance at getting Scroggins as they could. If they lose Scroggins tomorrow, it won't be because they didn't sell it, or didn't get him. I honestly think the ONLY thing that keeps Scroggins away is distance and the fact that we haven't proved ourselves on the field.
Now, if we lose Scroggins tomorrow.....and we prove we can do it on the field, there's a chance we might still can steal him. But this is in no way Kiffin and Staff's fault if he chooses not to come to UT.
