I am not one to come down on UW for recruiting. Too often we as uninformed fans like to make rash decisions about which high school kids are good and which are bad based on a few minutes of film and a star placed next to their name. In general I believe Wisconsin's run of good play along with our success in getting kids drafted means our recruiting is plenty good. Having said that...I just saw Jack Tuttle received offers from USC and Alabama recently (link below) and can't help but think that not only was the Ben Bryant de-committment a black eye for the school, but the acceptance of his committment in the first place kept us from getting Tuttle. Obviously the staff can't talk about what went on with Bryant's recruitment, but what happened here? We wanted Wolfe more than Bryant, but we didn't want Tuttle more than Bryant? Let's hope Chase Wolfe is the man, but I can't help but think the college success of either Bryant or Tuttle (especially if they are better than Wolf) is going to make this story come up again and again. http://www.espn.com/blog/ncfrecruit...th-utah-ready-to-see-his-stock-rise-even-more
