Bourne will be playing in the Annual Polynesion All-American Bowl on Saturday. He is to have 5-6 offers (don't know who other than Idaho and us) but is waiting/hoping for an offer from a Pac-12 team. He runs a 4.5.
I was concerned when I saw his size and 4.7 40. However, he was a pretty good hurdler as a junior despite it being his first year hurdling. He ran anchor on the team's 4X200 relay team that finished 6th in state (big school division). So he must have pretty good speed. He also high jumped 6'2" - darn good for a 5'9" kid!
I am amazed how long it takes for commitments to "leak" out. You would think that the player, his coach, the media, the recruiting websites, someone would provide insight into verbal commitments rather promptly.
Welcome to the board! Great article - I assume you are either a relative or friend of Cole's. Either way, welcome to the board - we are very excited to have Cole joining our FB team! He appears to be a very classy and mature young man!
I think I have Wiki updated with all the recent activity. If not, let me know. With all the chest bumps last week and over the weekend, I think we are missing 4-5 commitments, correct?
For us to compete for the title next year (even with those guys back), we need to "learn how to complete/learn how to win". I think Hooker will be a great addition and provide some of the needed leadership.
Gray is 5'9", 170 and runs a 4.7. Not what you would normally want in a RB but who knows!
Apparently Kubic has told SU last summer that he wants to be a Bison - not sure if that is still the case!
