He was offered, but read (maybe here?) that the UA offer was just to answer the question: Why didn't you offer AZ player Kyle Allen?

although there was no mutual interest due to different styles of QBs.


I am sure I am missing a few, but the only 3 real highly rated QB's I remember hailing from AZ are Hundley, Brewer, and Allen. I'd say that is 1 for 2 with the 3rd yet TBD.

That is probably not all that different from the general elite QB population. You want to talk about a long and illustrious group of highly rated QB busts, then Notre Dame stands alone, far ahead of the pack.

It's going to be reasonably humorous when Kyler plays baseball this spring and next and then goes to the MLB draft without ever playing a snap for the Sooners.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I definitely read he will not be eligible to play baseball this spring.

I think that's correct. He needs to sit out a year before eligible for any sports at a different school.

From the NCAA transfer guide:

http://www.ncaapublications.com/product ... NE2014.pdf" target="_blank

In Division I, a transfer student-athlete in the sports of baseball and basketball
who initially enrolls at the certifying institution as a full-time student for the spring term shall not be eligible
to compete until the next academic year (i.e., fall term).


So it reads like he will be available to play baseball when the season starts in February 2017 since the academic term starts in Fall 2016.

Kyle Allen at Ohio State practice today. It's the dead period so no contact with coaches

That makes zero sense to me.... He'll never play a down with Herman as the head coach. Unless he was assured that the OC is the HC in waiting, I do not get this move at all.

It would surprise me at all if Applewhite is essentially HCIW, and the way they are recruiting makes me think a very specific plan is being laid our for recruits. I agree with you on Herman. He is either P5 or NFL in the very near future.

What role does baseball play at Houston?

You have to think that Allen knows the deal before he commits to Houston whether Herman will be there or not.

The funny thing is how often these coaches are warning recruits and players about their social media, or combing through their Instagram to find some reason to eliminate a kid . . . and then they turn around and are just as big of idiots on their own feeds.

You know Sumlin can't be happy about this.

On Thursday, Moorehead posted an apology to ''all the young men in high school who work so hard to achieve their dreams of playing college football ...''

He also apologized to Texas A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin.

Sumlin said on the teleconference with reporters that he discussed the situation with Moorehead.

''He's taken responsibility for his actions, and we'll move on from there,'' Sumlin said.

Sumlin didn't say if there would be any punishment for Moorehead, but was asked if he had a social media policy for his assistant coaches.

''Our policy has been abuse the privilege, lose the privilege. Put it that way,'' Sumlin said.
