Wright didn’t sign.  20 did. Story posted on the class of 20

Zumwalt had a buddy who had been diagnosed with a terminal disease early in his high school career. He not only beat it, he was on the football team with Zumwalt his senior year. I had read that he was walking on at UCLA and Zumwalt wanted to be on his team.
Also I saw where Wright got a late offer from TCU. He might be another flip.

Also of note in the gostanford story

Quote:The Cardinal also welcomes defensive back Scotty Edwards who is returning from a two-year LDS mission to Johannesburg, South Africa after signing with Stanford as part of the Class of 2020 out of Holladay City, Utah.

Maybe Ramsay liked the scenery better in Westwood than at the Farm.  UCLA has a long tradition of using super hot hostesses for orientation of recruits.

Quote:Host programs are a logistical necessity for football programs, said Todd Crosset, associate professor of sports management at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. They’re the equivalent of tour guides for athletes, and for a football team that’s recruiting dozens of students during a time when coaches are busy, hosts play an important role.  In a way, the use of attractive women to recruit football players is byproduct of the college athletics system, Crosset said. The NCAA rules limit what universities can do to charm athletes. “The one thing universities can offer is attractive classmates, and the idea that you’re going to be high status, so that’s what they’ve been selling,” he said.

Any insight into Collin Wright's status? he received a TCU offer last week (so he may falling under Sonny's charms and the prospect of staying in his home state) but hasn't signed anywhere yet as far as I can tell.

My son was recruited by the University of Florida. We went down there and his hostess was nice enough, but she was no looker. I guess he wasn't high enough priority.

Too bad about Wright. Is he definitely gone?

TCU has one other safety signed this class, Chace Biddle

Quote:Four-star recruit … rated by 247Sports as the No. 11 safety in the nation, No. 29 overall player in Texas and No. 160 in the country … ranked by ESPN as the sixth-best safety in the nation

anyone know if Collin Wright has heard from admissions yet?

Back in the day we recruited a player from Hawaii and IIRC Logan Tom of WVB was his “hostess/guide.”  IIRC he committed, — sorry, can’t recall his name off the top of my head.

Wright is apparently waiting until Feb 2022 to sign.

"In the running"...he's currently still committed to Stanford. Lol.

(Yes he has been admitted.)

 Shaw said this morning that he was waiting on the decision of a prospect from Hawaii. He also said there could be two more signees in February.

247 showing a verbal commit from 3-star WR Jason Thompson of Harvard-Westlake.

Stanford adds late commit on NSD: 3-Star WR Jason Thompson (247sports.com)

some intriguing numbers.  37" standing vert; 4.47 40 etc.

Wow!  He has some great video from Harvard Westlake.  I'm surprised he's not a 4 star.  Great yardage after catches and can catch the jump ball fade.  They threw him the bubble screen repeatedly for big plays.


RE: Class of 2022 - TrumpCard - 12-16-2021

Stanford has had good luck with PWOs at WR. Griff Whalen, Ryan Whalen, and Brycen Tremayne come to mind, but I know there are more. It’s interesting to me that Thompson reports offers from the Arizona schools, but apparently couldn’t get an offer from the P5 academic private schools (Duke, Vandy, NW). He might have preferred to attend there for free. Or maybe he qualifies for a lot financial aid at Stanford?  Whatever the back story, he seems like a nice addition to the class.


RE: Class of 2022 - Papa John - 12-16-2021

Someone might have already asked this, but is there a reason why this thread is not still pinned with the other Important Threads?

The official national signing day for next year's incoming class is Wednesday, February 2, 2022.
