Yeah, I found that extremely weird too. If his parents are truly pushing him to go there then they must not understand football or forgot their son plays WR.

No kidding. It's like a TE from the Akron area going to OSU. I'm all about loyalty, but that only goes so far.

Upgraded to 3 stars on Scout after impressive showings at some camps.

Loyalty may be part of it, but even as little as GT throws they still had a receiver drafted in the first round. If they get decent WR's at GT then it will help out their triple option even more.

I guess. I think it would be a pretty boring offense to play in as a WR.

I understand that we want all good recruits, and Knight certainly is worthy, to come to UC. But its not like he is being told to go to Ohio U or something. GT was in a BCS bowl last year and quite frankly (even with the option) has gained the reputation of having athletic receivers and has put multiple people in the NFL first round recently.

Don't see him coming here. I think he's giving love to UC 'just in case' his offers get pulled.
