HawgGoneIt Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 I'd say anyone that won't be attending college in the next 4 or 5 years is definitely too young. Lovie could be on his 3rd new coaching job by the time this kid is old enough to play college ball. Silliness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are dumbest publicity stunts and looks bad on the coach making the offer imo. I really do not think any kids should get offers until they have played Varsity. Obviously their are some freaks of nature like the huge 8th grader recently who got 3 offers from all 3 summer camps he attended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gospeeder Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Not really a smart move for Lovie. His biggest asset imo. is his connection to the Chicagoland area through his success with the Bears. The local kids can relate to that. The few times Illinois had really good teams was when they attracted lots of city and suburban upper level talent which does not happen very often. This just undermines the potential belief in his integrity through the eyes of the parents of the local recruits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
