We pretty much know Tom Compton has the talent to play in the NFL. He’s projected to go in the 5th round. With the coaching change at this time, is he going to get the necessary help to promote him to get there? Is it on Wes or Coach Glenn? I assume they are spending time trying to re-evaluate and secure recruits. Is Meierkort still involved with the USD and helping his guys in any way?
Most D-I teams have and NFL liaison dedicated to promoting players for national recognition, awards, all-star games, and professional play. I would think 2 years after the attention Sheppard and Quaye received, USD would have someone in place. Do they and what are they doing? Besides big wins and championships, pointing to recent Yotes in the pros will be a big selling point for recruits. I looked at the coaching records over the last 20 years and Ed was by far at the head of the class and I think it has to do with the level of talent he brought in.
Below is a list of seniors I think can play at the next level – mostly CFL/AFL. Has anybody heard of any of these guys being seriously scouted by the pros or promoted by the school? What level do you think these guys will play – NFL/CFL/AFL? Nowotny and Ganious’s grades will probably earn them more money in the real world than the others chasing the dream.
Compton

Warren
Williams
Johnson
