He was sitting behind the USF bench. I really don't know what to make of this but it does deserve a mention. Lyle had supposedly narrowed his list. to 4 schools but to Coach O credit he was at least able to get Lyle's attention. Clearly the USF coaches recognize that there is a lack of talent problem at USF and they are trying to address that by recruiting guys like Kobe Eubanks and JaQuan Lyle for next season. Lyle is playing this season at IMG Academy in Florida after his freshman season was unexpectedly derailed. A native of Evansville, Ind., the 6-foot-5 combo guard played three seasons at Bosse High in his hometown and then went to Huntington Prep in West Virginia as a senior in 2013-14. During a long and winding recruiting process that included early commitments to Indiana and Louisville, plus persistent attention from heavyweights Kentucky, Kansas, Memphis and Oklahoma State, Lyle committed and signed with Oregon. He was poised to head to the Great Northwest, but the NCAA disqualified one class that he took at Huntington and ruled him ineligible in mid-September, two weeks before fall semester classes began in Eugene. Instead of rolling the dice and appealing the NCAA decision, Lyle enrolled at IMG, one of the higher profile prep-school programs in the country. That also hit the reset button on Lyle's recruitment and since getting settled in at IMG, he has whittled his final list to Oregon, Mizzou, Ohio State and LSU. http://www.nola.com/lsu/index.ssf/2015/01/lsu_in_the_mix_to_go_3-for-3_w.html Edited January 8, 2015 by Vega Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to COA's progression as HC here this is true and I do believe that Coach O and his staff will indeed land guys like this. Watching the video pitch by Coach O, he basically is trying to sell the idea and playing for and learning from the same caliber of coaches you find at Kentucky, UNC, Duke, Kansas, the bigtime programs. What he says makes perfectly sense. Why go there where there is a chance you will be a backup or sit on the bench for 4 years when you can come to a school like USF where you will be placed in a starring role. Basically playing up to the egos of some of these kids that want to be a star in college before moving on to the next level. All this is true because every year you see guys with high major talent sit on the bench at the traditional power schools. Just because you are a 4 or 5 star player signed in one class means nothing to them because the next class they bring in will have talent just as good or better. It's another reason why there are are such a high number of transfers too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
