Midgets-R-Us

I don't know if I have ever seen this before, but it's worth noting. We have a recruit coming in who has set all the Texas rushing records you could imagine, but he's 5'6" and 185lbs soaking wet.

He is the brother of James Rodgers, the guy who scored the winnning touchdown in this years Civil War. His name is Jacquizz Rodgers. He has verbally committed to coming to OSU next year and T.F. Brown at the Oregonian has a hard on for him.

A couple people have commented that one hit from USC's linebackers will set Rogers straight, which may be true. But who knows. Barry Sanders was as small as Jacquizz, maybe he'll grow in college.

The bottomline is that it's great we are getting interesting players like Jacquizz, but let's see if this kid is actually eligible before annointing him the next Ken Simonton. It's getting ridiculous. We have 30% of our recruiting class who can't pass academic muster every year. We need to get our shit together and get perspective. Rather TF Brown needs to.
