Three-star WR Lawrence Cager releases top five


COLUMBUS, Ohio – Ohio State was in good positioning with three-star wide receiver Lawrence Cager of Towson (Md.) Calvert Hall early this week.

Not anymore.*

Cager told cleveland.com on Monday evening that his latest top five, in order, is Georgia, Miami (Fla.), Alabama, Virginia Tech and Mississippi.*

It was interesting when Ohio State, once figured to be one of Cager's leaders, wasn't on it. He said that's "mainly because of the coaching change."*

News broke Monday morning that offensive coordinator Tom Herman is expected to accept the head coaching position at Houston*next year, and that change on the coaching staff has Cager thinking twice.*

Is Ohio State dead?*

"I don't think they are necessarily dead," Cager said, "but Coach Herman leaving was big."*

The reason Ohio State was considered one of the teams to beat for the 6-foot-5, 202-pound receiver is his close friendship with five-star quarterback Torrance Gibson of Plantation (Fla.) American Heritage, a Buckeyes commit.*

When the Herman news went public, Gibson expressed that he was sad that Herman was leaving but he told cleveland.com that he would have done the same thing.*

"I'm a little sad to see him go because he's a great offensive coordinator, a great coach and a great person on and off the field," Gibson told cleveland.com on Monday afternoon. "But I'm happy for him, actually.*

"He always wanted the opportunity to be a head coach, and he saw his opportunity and he took it. I would've done the same thing if they offered me a head coaching position if I were in his shoes. I'm happy for him."*

Do you know of any S. Florida 6'5" 200# 4* WR's that don't have major issues with grades or discipline?

I know probably 5-6 will blow up pretty quickly for other schools. Does the WR need to be 6'5 200 pounds to be good? Do all SF players have issues? Our best WR from last season might be 5'10 and he will be pretty darn good in the NFL.

Instead we will recruit kids like J. Carter and miss on T. Rudolph or I. Mckenzie or A. Cooper in the process. We miss on too much good talent and porsters keep flashing excuses rather than acknowledge the truth...our coach makes a lot of mistakes and recruiting is one.
 
Cager is nasty. This staff deserves all the criticism it gets for its failures at recruiting in South Florida, but I don't have an issue with pursuing top talent from out of state as long as they're going after studs. Cager qualifies, IMO.

That being said, I assume we have no chance.
