Two de-commitments, one verbal commit and some news that Washington State WR coach Dennis Simmons could be on the move, as well. There's less than 48 hours until signing day - have any questions? I'll be here to answer them throughout the night.
My gut feeling says he flips to Michigan. Arizona State cannot be counted out, either. If the Dennis Simmons to Oklahoma rumors are true - which it's seeming more and more likely like they are - Burnett could be the next one out the door.Originally posted by SethCougar:
If you have a gut feeling call on Burnett what is it?
Where would you consider Oguayo at in terms of stars and why don't you think he has been rated as of yet ?
I have not been able to confirm any Dennis Simmons and Oklahoma rumors, but I did add a few notes on the situation in the War Room, in which I said it's looking likely he could be out the door.Originally posted by Cougbbfan:
With the way some of the kids Simmons has been recruiting flipping, is it a pretty good sign that he is leaving for OU? And, any idea which way Leach would go for a new WR coach?
I haven't been able to confirm any of the Dennis Simmons to Oklahoma rumors, so I don't have any answers to either of those questions.Originally posted by YakiCoug:
How much of a salary increase would Simmons be getting with the move to Oklahoma? And did WSU do anything to keep him?
I'm sure the staff is making some last minute calls, but I don't see a situation where he signs with WSU on Wednesday.Originally posted by Cougbbfan:
Is there any way you see us getting back in with Tezino?
They were going to take three or four, however with Green out of the picture and Burnett wavering, they could wind up taking just two - Sweet and Dimry, who doesn't hold an offer yet.Originally posted by California Coug:
How many receivers do the Cougs want in this class?
Go Cougs!!!
They were really high on Wilson, though it appeared he was leaning towards Boise State and Utah after the Cougars landed Dahu Green. The staff also wrapped up their in-home visits with Wilson a couple weeks ago.Originally posted by bhamm03:
Does George Wilson come into play.
Sounded like he was close to making a decision this weekend but delayed his announcement. Washington State is in the picture along with N.C. State, UNLV and Nevada.Originally posted by Brent H.:
Fehoko?
Tago is locked in. I think Perrott will end up sticking, too.Originally posted by EdmondsCoug:
What is your feelings on the Cougs hanging onto Tago and Perott? Thank you.
Don't forget that Clemson transfer Kyrin Priester has already enrolled as well.Originally posted by Britton Ransford:

He committed to Nebraska.Originally posted by chugspig:
What's the deal with Alston?
Despite him being "committed," Washington State has been a long shot to get Moi's signature since the TCU offer and visit. For what it's worth, I've heard Oregon could be his new leader.Originally posted by bogusto:
I heard Moi is now a strong Oregon lean. Is that true or do we still have a shot?
Nothing good can come of it. And yes, Washington State fans don't do it much, which is good (and smart).Originally posted by robbcoug:
Thoughts on fans reaching out to prospective athletes on twitter? Seems as though a lot of fans do it, but not WSU fans, which I'm actually happy about. Trying to sways a kid's commitment seems a little shady to me.
That may well be, but I've seen more than one recruit wondering why Wazzu fans wouldn't show the same "Twitter love" as competitor schools.Originally posted by Britton Ransford:

As a fan, I don't think I'd want a player on my team that makes decisions based on the amount of attention he/she received.Originally posted by wulffui:

I thought Washington State a few weeks ago, but he's since visited BYU, Oregon State and Michigan State, which have been productive visits, from what I've heard. I'm hoping to speak with him today.Originally posted by robbcoug:
Any indication on where Mufi Hunt is leaning?
