MIKE FORD headed to USF!!!

[HaulingBull Sucks]

Didn't our own great Andre Hall go to prep school?

If so, what's the big deal?  Like Andre didn't kick ass when he was here?  Only this guy will have FOUR years?  Sweet!

As far as I know the only prep school that he went to was Dixe Hollins HS in St Pete.

Andre Hall went to Junior College - Georgia Military College  & Garden City CC (Kansas) leaving him with only 2 years elibility left when he got to USF.

[Bulls 1]

Why was he downgraded to a one star player.

After watching some of his videos on scout all i can say is wow.  This kid is the real deal power, speed, cuts, vision.  As long as we give this guy something resembling a hole he will have success.  [highlight]Also Haulingbull prep school isnt anything out of the ordianary.  [/highlight]The most talented RB in the country (Noel Devine) is prolly gunna go this route and Tory Holt did the same thing before he went to NC State.

Where did I say it's anything out of the ordinary?  Prep school is high school - Ford attended as a Post Graduate to make up for any deficiencies that he had in meeting NCAA and USF entrance requirements.  

The only thing out of the ordinary is that Hargrave has a PG football program - allowing Ford to continue playing football despite having used up his HS eligibilty.

Prep School = High School

Prep School  Post Graduate = Additional HS work for someone with a HS Diploma.

All of the guys not on the current team are considered "recuits". It's great that we get commitments from players like Mike Ford and others. And hopefully, Marve will be next.

However, until they show up on campus as students, all of these guys are recuits.

That said, it's still great fun!

A 4-star / 5-star RB who wants to be a Bull, what more can you ask from recruiting?

I want to see this on Greg's blog.  It worries me that the kid has been out of high school for two years signed a LOI with Alabama and went to Hargrave.  I do not know what the eligibility rules are when Ford will be eligible and if so, ha she met NCAA standards.

Heres Greg's take on it.
