It’s a legit concern. Everyone I know at Hoover is saying it doesn’t look good. With that being said, Hoover usually has a way of making some kids eligible so him being cleared won’t shock me either.

That was my next thought. What was the last highly recruited Hoover kid that didn’t qualify?

Pickens not doing the class work is disappointing. At least if he signs and fails to qualify we will still have his recruiting ratings boost, I guess.

Agreed on both counts. As long as he continues to recruit hard for us behind the scenes I'm not going to worry much about what he says on camera.

Don't know much about before but he's doing the classwork now. Hoover has set up an online system to help him get caught up and to prevent him from transferring to Thompson for his SR season because they already had an online system set up for behind students.

I don't think our staff went after him hard because of his lack of initial interest in us.. but i could be wrong.
FWIW Keith said a number of teams wanted tr see him camp this Summer before going after him because he had just come off an injury. To my knowledge he did not camp at AU.

Yep, Pickens was about to leave because other schools had pretty much said they could get him qualified. I believe he was looking hard at Thompson and Pinson Valley.

Pickens and Bo would have been an unfair duo for 6A
