Do you Hoke lovers still think the world of Hoke now? Dude takes off on us, takes majority of the coaches and now he is about to take our potential future AZTECS.
What a piece of dung!
I spoke with my my brother-in-law who is a coach at University of Hawai'i regarding recruiting etiquette... He went from UC Riverside to UH a couple of years ago. His head coach and AD pretty much told him UC Riverside recruits were of limits as soon as he signed his contract. He was told to preserve and respect the spirit of the sport (or something like that I forgot his exact words) he couldn't go after who he was recruiting for his former school and recruit them to his new school. He said he would send Hoke an email regarding his violation of the unwritten rule of recruiting.

If they're not verbals to us how can we claim them?
It's like getting pissed if a buck fuddy goes out with another guy. The girl is not ours to claim.

I wouldn't go play for Hoke. He is going to get fired in 3 years just like Rich Rod.
Coach Long is going to be at SDSU for a while.

Believe me it is standard in the industry. When you go from college A to B you have no longer any loyalty to college B. Your new employer (college) expects you to do everyhing you can to win now. There is no crying in college football recruiting.

Have we lost a player that already verballed .. or are these strictly open market guys you're referring to? I'm sure whatever connections Hoke built while he was out here, he'll continue to use as a recruiting advantage at michigan and I'm sure a lot of recruits (and parents) probably liked him and might want to follow him to michigan.
Should Hoke have to take the entire year off from recruiting or be banished to recruiting east of the rockies? The fact that we landed a top 50 RB after he left makes me think we'll be just fine.

Who are you talking about? What recruits? If you are talking about McClure we were always a long shot because we don't have a track team.

If McClure ends up in the dump previously known as Ass Arbor then there a clear case of tampering & probably an NCAA violation if Leon Hall an NFL player & most likely a Meatchicken booster paid him a visit!

Last I read all 22 recruits were still committed but we all know that can change.

You guys forget that he was recruiting McClure using our recruiting funds. He was basically using our athletic budget to recruit this kid to Michigan.

I'm with JYP on this one. Particularly the comment about taking SDSU recruits.
Did Hoke try to take any Ball State recruits with him to SDSU? Uh, no. Even after Ball State was just coming off a 10-2 season whereas SDSU was coming off a season with the polar opposite record.
In my mind this $#!+ is just confirmation of Rocky's comment about how much work there is to do there. And also confirmation that Brady isn't at all the Ah, shucks guy he tries to portray himself as being.
Thanks for two good years, Hoke. But if there's karma in college football, we're going to kick your fat ass on September 24.

Hoke lover here, and I still love him. He took our dung heap pile of a FB program and in 2 short years made us at least respectable. Wish he was still here, but he did what he said he would do if his dream job came open. Wish he could have had the chance to say the heartfelt goodbyes that you all seem to be whining about, but hey it's the real world and things don't always work out the way we want them to in the real world. Sometimes stuff happens. Do I have a problem with him contacting any of our recruits? No more than any other school. I don't want UW poking around Jeffries, nor do I want Hoke poking around any recruit, but again, this is the real world where he has a job to do just as we have a job to do. What you think the Aztec coaches stop on a kid because he has verbaled somewhere else? Come on we had a secret meeting w/ Long when was the UNM HC, and where is the outrage at Long for taking that meeting as Hoke did with Minnesota? We are no different than any other school out there. It's time to get off our holier than thou horses and start acting like big boys. He's gone. Rocky is here. See you in September in Ann Arbor and I hope we whip their butts!
This constant whining about what Hoke did or is doing is embarrassing.

Don't know if I "love" him,but I certainly respect what he did for the program in the short time he was here.That being said, I'm with Dshawfan on this one.Some of you guys are acting awfully childish over this -- Let.It.Go. ...Are break-ups in your personal and professional life always this irreconcilable and acrimonious as what is being exhibited here? Jesus. |

Blah, blah, blah ... Glass houses ... throwing stones.
Adversity shows everyone's character, Hoke and all those who loved him 24 days ago.

Look up "class" or "character" in the dictionary, you won't find Hoke.
