Stupid crabs...

It's only an oral commitment.

That's all the Ivies ever get, isn't it?

Lot of guards coming in. Need a big man. Or two or three.

I agree they need to bring in size, but at least the three kids they've gotten so far seem pretty skilled. Miller, from Ohio, seems like an especially nice get.

A center committed today, Deion Giddens, seems a little undersized at 195 but if he bulks up like Foote did, went from 225 to 265 in 3 years here, its sounds like he has a lot of upside

"The son of Freddie Gibbins, an officer in the Air Force, Deion Giddens..."
That is a really careless typo or a strange similarity in the names of his parents.

Who's buried in Gibbins' tomb?

Didn't mean to sound too harsh; at the time I thought it was wire copy. Thanks for the report.
