Schaffer seems like a great pickup.
Two questions:
(1) Mich St. offered, but no offer from Mich or tOSU - considering he is from B1G country, is this meaningful?
(2) He is listed at 6'7" - can a DE be "too tall"?

A DE can't be too tall. Remember Ed "too tall" Jones? He was 6-9.

Thanks. Still learning about football - seems like height for a DE could be good (assuming proportionally long arms) for batting down balls or generally getting in the way of throws even if not actually touching the ball, but was thinking about leverage and "getting low" which I've come to appreciate about Stanford's O line, especially in short yardage situations.

I think you just contradicted yourself ;)
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)

Should move Nygel Edmonds to "Admitted/Suspected 7th Semester Admissions Casualties/Decommits"
If I had a dollar every time I was distracted, I wish I had some ice cream.

Wait a minute -- when did this happen? I see that his Twitter bio says he's a C.al commit, but there's no tweet there from making that announcement. Was it long ago?
Please clear the field! The game is not over!

They say recruiting is a soap opera for men.
I'm starting to believe it. "Will Nygel Edmonds, spurned by Stanford, find happiness across the Bay. Tune in again next fall".

Ha! I'd never heard that expression, but it's pretty apt. I feel a little silly sometimes following recruiting this closely, but I tell myself it's natural for a Stanford football fan to care about the process by which that team is assembled.Â

I thought Drukarev tweeted that Edmonds was admitted? Unless there is other evidence we shouldn't cast shade that he's an admission casualty simply because he chose our rival but perhaps the rest of you know more info than me.
In 1938 Neville Chamberlain declared "Peace in our time", Superman first appeared in Action Comics, Seabiscuit beat War Admiral ....... and C.a.l last won the Rose Bowl.

As has been posted in the 2016 recruiting thread, there's a lot of information behind the paywall in the Rivals message boards.

As always, the emphasis should be on the players that we do get, not the ones that we didn't.... and we just got a very big and important recruit.
