    Those beach boys beat two SEC teams and we'll have to get Brett to put up a USC forum in the Den.

    ....not USC or Stanford, they always play extra tough ooc scedules.

    @uscvball,.. More about about Dakota Prukop,.. a First Team FCS All American last year at Montana State, ,.. Prukop completed 62.7 percent of his passes for 3,025 yards, 28 touchdowns and 10 interceptions, he also rushed for 797 yards and 11 touchdowns. And,.. he endeared himself to the Duck's by choosing Oregon over source of evil, Alabama!

    FCS QB Dakota Prukop chooses Oregon over Alabama
    http://www.al.com/alabamafootball/index.ssf/2015/12/inside_alabamas_pursuit_of_qb.html
    Oregon was the first school Prukop talked to. The weekend visit was quickly set up. Several other prominent schools like Texas and Michigan reached out as well, each expressing interest and pitching their respective program. Alabama didn't make contact until Saturday morning, but made a quick impression.

    Prukop was on his Oregon visit when he got a phone call from Tide offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin.

    He told Kiffin he would call back after finishing his Oregon visit.

    When Prukop called back during the afternoon, Kiffin shared that Alabama was interested and explained why Prukop should visit Tuscaloosa and consider transferring to the Tide. The pitch was intriguing enough that Prukop took a red-eye flight from Oregon to Alabama late Saturday night.

    On Sunday, Prukop met with Saban. He was also shown film of Alabama's offense, was told about the style of offense Alabama would like to transition to and how a quarterback with his dual-threat ability would fit well into that offense.

    Saban and Kiffin attempted to sell Prukop on playing for a program with the history of Alabama's and on being able to add a dual-threat quarterback dynamic to the Tide's offense.

    Saban and Kiffin made a final pitch over the phone Monday before Prukop decided on Oregon, which was his early top choice.

    "It was tough because there wasn't one wrong answer," Prukop said. "There's two really good decisions, two really good schools to choose from. And it was more so what's best for me, where I'm going to be happy, and that's what it came down to."

    That was tongue-in-cheek cause the SEC wrote the book on scheduling cream puffs.

    One year USC's OOC schedule had three conference champions on it as OOC games. Just wanted to let you know before vball comes to say that, cause she will.
