But at least he didn’t oversign!

Bo Pelini shows us there’s more than one questionable way to skin the recruiting cat.

I keep saying it’s not oversigning per se that bugs me.  It’s the out-and-out misleading of kids that does.

    You may not want to be too critical of Pellini. After all we did the same with Belin, linebackers coach. He was silent about Belin accepting a position with the Panther’s until after signing day.

      Not unless Belin had taken the job and informed the staff a month ago.

      My understanding is that this came as a surprise to Richt on the eve of NSD.

    I feel kinda bad for the player that let the cat out of the bag. I’m sure Pellini won’t remember once the guy is on campus.

    In the never-ending exodus of assistants immmediately after NSD, Bo asks, “What job posting?”

    And you still seem to believe the former is possible without the latter. Which is pretty odd given the large numbers of schools and officials who clearly understand it isn’t.
