Its not a good look to disparage guys who we offered and who chose to go elsewhere. Good luck to Amon-Ra. Unfortunately, I think he is the mos talented of the three and could have helped us.
But, as they say, its not about the guys who you dont land; its about what the guys who you do wind up doing.

Well, we had threads and threads of posts disparaging Josh Rosen and no one seemed to get too excited. Was that OK because we chose not to offer him?
Not saying ASB is a bad apple, he just appears to be a bit of a showboat.

We didnt offer Rosen. Also, I think underlying the debates about Rosen was really a debate about the coach who chose not to offer him. I doubt that three years after the fact, we would have had threads about it had he been offered and still decided to go to UCLA.

Well, I'll conclude my remarks on this issue by saying I don't find whether we offered a guy or not a particularly compelling rule as to whether we are allowed to make "disparaging" comments about him.
