Way to go Coach Sirmon! You cannot stop Dooley recruiting, you can only hope to contain it.

Whoo-hoo! I've thought for months this kid was leaning toward us, but I'm glad to know he really chose to come to K-town.
Welcome aboard, Mr O'Brien! Great to have you on the team!

Tremendous commitment. Look forward to seeing DANNY O'Brien in Orange. GVX, please correct the headline calling him "DAVEY O'Brien"!

Just wanted to pop in and say that you guys got a really good player right here. I live in Michigan and I caught a couple of his games. He's the real deal, and his motor is going constantly on every play. Very hard worker, and I was really hoping we could pull him.
I gotta say, you're getting pretty annoying pulling top recruits out of Michigan But congrats on the get, and best of luck this season

You Michigan fans have been very gracious in your comments about O'Brien. I can understand the frustration in losing a guy like him.
Still, despite losing him, y'all are still doing quite well on the recruiting trail yourselves. Congratulations! Rivals currently rates your upcoming signing class at #3 in the country!

6'3" and 300#
Holy crap, and I guess he could get even bigger here. This kid will be mauling our opponents next year. I mean hell, he's got the size to play now. Go us!
