Cheesy Recruiting

We've gotten a lot of people asking what happened in the Will Compton recruiting process. Well, apparently Mizzou wasn't sleazy enough (no offense, Sleezy).

There are certain things in life that I've been ashamed of after rethinking them; dumping a girl that did Miss Missouri pageants after two years of dating because she started to freak me out, driving an '86 Cutty, cheating in poker off a guy that I knew had Parkinson's (the cards were right there!). One thing the Husker coaching staff may regret is how they finally landed Will Compton.

If I were him, I think the tattoo thing would kind of freak me out a little bit. On a scale from "one" to "Hannibal Lecter", I'd give it a "moderately creepy".

I haven't been following recruiting that long. Please tell me that's not normal.

Here's a comment I found on DXP, one of the non-Kool Aid drinking and well done Husker sites.

About Ekeler, the coach that did the tat-

"I talked to a buddy who went to law school in Topeka & he said Ekeler is some kind of folk hero down there...he was the special teams psycho who'd paint his face in faceblack and go flying through a wedge. I guess he's got his jerseys hanging in taverns all over Manhattan...ala Tom Haase at Lazarri's."

$10 says he's arrested for public urination in downtown Lincoln. Sounds like a frat kid...just grown up.
