Thats sayin something right thar.
Great interview with Hayden Hidlay on Flo discussing his Nolf matches. Impressive guy, and he gives high praise to Jason. This guy is very easy to like.

I think Hayden would have fit in at PSU really well. Outside of Brady, definitely rooting for him.
"Kyle, hang up! I've got Cael Sanderson on the phone."
In the thread, someone posted "Bo has left the chat. Kyle Conel has entered the chat. Kollin Moore has left the chat."
Really glad to watch the Hidlay interview. Great interview and seems like a great kid! Very interesting and impressive comments on his response to the controversial loss to Nolf. He grew up just 30 miles from PSU.
Cary does an AMA on twitter. Good stuff in here, especially if you’re a coach at some level. Cameos by a Hughes brother too.
Whether he wins or not, he is certainly highly deserving.
This is a cool story. I'm sure the others nominated have pretty cool stories too.
Did they have to photoshop out Cael’s double bird flip?

Can someone summarize his thoughts on Kerk. Heard his comments were “interesting” from the twitterati, but no one got into specifics
Just listened now.
Oh, his comments on Kerk were “interesting” alright.
Tan Tom went on a mini rant on how elite recruits these days attitudes are more “What can you (the school) do for me”.... and “Its all about me”...
And he made this comparison that the recruit needs a level of trust in the program to develop the recruit.
“There’s a difference in of having a great plan but low trust, and having a good plan and solid trust.”
“The recruit needs to trust us”.
Basically, Ryan whined in an off-hand way & Buckeye tears taste salty.
He commented that Kyle leaving was a part of Kerk's decommit, but there were other reasons as well.
He didn't specifically say Kerk, but he talked about trust needing to be there and not everything needs to be perfect as long as you trust in what you are doing. Also went into the culture of some athletes being about what people can do for them, being coddled, etc.
Mentioned that a few things he looks for when he is recruiting is what the athlete is willing to do for the team, how they would fit in, whether they are a "jerk". He also said that at times, they have to fight "allowing talent to blind you".
As enjoyable as a Tan Tom whinefest can be -- live from Aruba it's Tom Ryan! -- the comments about trusting the coaches are similar to what happened with Jake Kemerer.
Ryan has had few issues with guys buying in, for example they actually wear Positive Infinity shirts in public.
That said, the rest ... of course elite athletes are in it for themselves. They are also the most motivated.
Channeling that into a team environment is Ryan's job. Some will be easier than others. Those who are truly impossible need to go, and are cause for self-reflection.

Willie scooping Flo all over the place
We talked about that back in Feb when he committed.
