upon my most current point of view, no doc, i would not. please bare in mind, my good pal.. that it is this exact "privilege" that so many of our recruits seem to end up abusing for the most part. and upon the end.. leaves them discombobulated with their credibility at stake. which in turn.. creates a mockery of their recruitment.
doc, as a small boy growing up in the suburbs of beaumont, tx. i longed for the very opportunity to be able someday to venture forth to austin, tx.. and become a student as per the university of texas. that dream of mine never ever materialized. therefore, i went through classes at the university of houston, and ended up graduating at texas southern university. today, i shall gladly take my hat off to anyone that has shared the foremost privilege of attending / graduating from UT. upon my view, there is just no greater privilege as per any young texan.
this is the reason why i am so very proud of young recruits such as jerrod heard. this particular athlete, didn't have to "go around the world in eighty days" or so to speak. he knew just what institution of higher learning that he wanted to attend.. and against all the forms of various influences, from many many schools.. he held true to his convictions as per UT. and thank god that he did.. for now, he stands poised for greatness, as a quarterback for TEXAS.
trust me doc, it would be incredibly unseemly for me to harbor a problem for young recruits to seek adventure, intellect / knowledge, and offerings from prospective schools. i am a big boy, and i am highly accustomed to the recruitment game. but just as the OP of this thread has become a bit disgusted as per the current / shocking recruitment process.. well so have i. for if the recruitment process continues to head down this particular destructive path.. then the kids shall indeed become the ultimate losers.
