    They've always been in the running for Amon-Ra, Jalen Hall, etc. , so if that was the case, why would they even accept his commitment last month?

    Reliable guy on the USC 247 boards (who knew every silent commit before they went public for the 2017 class) says that Jalen Hall (duh) and Amon-Ra St. Brown are silent commits, and they are looking into maybe one more big fish for WR.

    Their class is gonna be ridiculous.

    Maybe you guys haven't been paying attention, but what they did last year... They literally do it every year.

    It's just that we're starting to compete more for the same guys.

    Manny Allen isn't that great.
    I agree with this. They were basically guaranteed to get at least two WRs better than him, so it's just interesting why they even accepted is commitment.

    You don't have to do that to be competing at a high level ... we do it the way you're supposed to ... our problem is that we don't get enough of our A targets as I'd like.

    You're right but until we win at high level of constantly conference championship or better we are gonna hardcorehusky all over this shit .Do you really think the blue bloods do it the way they're supposed to do it.

    What's your standards?

    Starting in the 1920's, the number of conference championships that we've either won outright or shared the title for by decade as follows:

    1920s: 1
    1930s: 1
    1940s: 0
    1950s: 1
    1960s: 2
    1970s: 1
    1980s: 2
    1990s: 4
    2000s: 1
    2010s: 1
    Total: 14

    Over that time period, we finished 2nd in the conference 18 different times.

    That's not saying that we can't win at a consistently high level, but there's reason to be tempered about our success and knowing that we're always going to be going uphill against the LA schools. Just as a point of reference, over this time period, the number of conference/division titles by the LA schools:

    USC: 40
    UCLA: 19

    Manuel Allen is too slight and lanky, he's going to eventually get injured...he looks maybe about 165-170#s.
    I'd much rather have Petersen get Chase Williams - he could potentially be a punt returner/kick returner. Spiker, Williams, and Osbourne are good enough for 2018.

    Why would you count division titles?

    I agree. He's definitely overrated by the sites. If I had to guess I'd say we end up with Osborne, Spiker, Culp (TE), and maybe Treshaun in the slot if not at RB. Chase Williams goes out east, and Allen ends up at Nebraska or some shit.

    I'd still definitely take Williams though, it might depend on if there's any additional attrition among the WR corps.
