Does it piss off any Griz fan who is weary of seeing sub-par defense back play from the Griz in the past several seasons.... that Southern Utah had two defensive backs sign with the NFL recently? At least one of them was even drafted, maybe both of them!
Now, please tell me how a team like Southern Utah can convince talented black high school D-backs to play in that glorified high school stadium, in front of 4,000 fans, in a sh*t hole town run by the Mormon church, over a hundred miles from any semblance of night life???? That is about as likely as signing Lady GaGa to sing at the Grand Ole Opry!
There are two possible reasons that So. Utah can do this:
1) they are better at evaluating high school talent than we are
2) this was a one-time phenomenon, and they got lucky with lightly-recruited players that developed into studs.
