Reply To: Difference Between Hugs and CLR in Year 4

I’m gonna talk out of both sides of my mouth here a bit. I think USC not recruiting locally is a mistake. It’s who we are. At same time SoCal collective dna is not making nfl caliber players at the same rate. This is opinion only not super well researched on my part.

Guys like Korey foreman, Justin Flowe, Domani Jackson, Bru McCoy, CJ Carr, Raleek Brown, Rosen, Malachi Nelson.

10/20 years ago the top top SoCal talent was typically a sure fire star. Carson, Deshaun, Darrell Russell, Chris Claiborne.

So I can understand CLRs concerns. But it does expose him if he can’t get the big out of state guys.

and transfer portal has changed game. No one sticks around anymore which does have both upsides/downsides.

So my complaint about CLR is he failed on both efforts. No local fence and no large one either. Especially HS level. He has done well with portal guys.
