Leach is flying up for an in home visit with Costello today! Hopefully we get some commitment news soon! Opinions?
It's done already IMO.
This is going to be a BIG TIME pull by the Pirate! This is fun :cool:
Now go get him a solid grad transfer WR after Spring when more hit the portal.
You have an idea who it's done for? Or you just think the decision is already made and don't know what it is?Quote:

Seattle Times says Costello is visiting Washington Huskies today!
Don't see it..... they're QBs are young, but they have three 4 star qbs sitting there waiting for their shot. You want competition..... but Washington is on another level when it comes to qb competition.Quote:

Hopefully Leach can just close it out and remove all doubt and it be done tonight after his in-home.
Maybe, but he is a west coast kidQuote:

Probably a decent chance of that. But also Seattle is much closer to a Palo Alto type environment than Vegas is.Quote:

I doubt he's wondering what the bar scene is like and how close it is to Palo Alto. The fact that he even visited Starkville shows you where his priorities are. He values Leach.Quote:

Not gonna lose sleep over his decision. He could be good but he is also potentially plastic man 2.0 who did well against arguable the softest P5 conference over the last decade. Next year is going to be an adjustment even if we had Patrick Mahomes.
It may not be a distance issue but Starkville is harder to reach by air than Seattle from the bay area, especially if his parents want to attend every home game. Unless this is a courtesy visit I dont think he's coming.
Plastic man never played significant minutes at PSU, whereas Costello is a proven commodity. Not to mention Plastic man played in the Joe Mo Shit Show offense. Night and day between these two guys and their situations. We ABSOLUTELY need to be on the edge of our seats about Costello possibly coming here. The difference in him at QB in Leach's system, versus one of our current QB's, is probably 3 wins or more if we're being honest with ourselves.Quote:

Is there someway we can blame an Ole Miss agent?
Here is my biggest concern, Costello is a bright kid that understands that we are changing offenses, but making that change without really changing the personnel - at least for next year. We recruited and signed kids with an eye towards RPO. IT could be that he is wondering if the WR's we have on campus are capable of making him look good. This is a million dollar decision for him. Personally I think he should trust Leach and his offense and that we will put guys in the right spots and make the offense go, but I understand the hesitation - especially when he has one year to make himself an NFL top 3 round draft pick.
