Wednesday and the WAC

Note: seldomseensmith IS a WAC bigshot in our eyes -- he comes up with as much if not more recruiting news than anyone else. We doubt if he has an entourage (yet) but we will keep checking to see if he changes his moniker to 3s.

+++++

Ex-Nevada point London Giles has surfaced -- at home. Giles has signed with SMU. Go here for the article (a Rivals sub is required).

 +++++

Ryan Gorcey at BearTerritory.net says that Sheldon High's (Sacramento, CA) Darius Nelson has many offers, including Fresno State. Go here (and a Rivals sub is required). In our humble opinion, Nelson will not be coming to the WAC.

+++++

According to Steve Hu at NorCalPreps (Rivals), JT Adenrele is hearing from Utah State. Here's an August 2009 article on the young man. Here is a more current one.

Likewise, Boise State and San Jose State (among many others) are eyeballing 6-foot-8 Chad Haysbert. Here's a very nice video feature on Haysbert.

Hu's article can be found here (a Rivals sub is required).

+++++

It's football-related but do read Jared Eborn's blog entry on the fading (on the field) Boise State - Idaho rivalry. Let's just say the passions run high. Call us old-fashioned (that's the mildest description tossed our way in some time) but Idaho battling Boise State in football and basketball is good for the state. There is something larger to keep in mind but it's getting lost in the kerfluffle presently going on. Yes, BSU doesn't have anything to gain BCS-wise by continuing the series but, please, let's not solely utilize that as the ultimate measuring stick. Please keep this tradition.

+++++

That's it for now.
