Congrats to Anthony Russo on Selection to Elite 11 Finals

This is the best news on the board in a while. That is big time.

He was our third option, and I don't care about star rankings when you consider this.

This kid was lined up next to some of the best in the country at his position and evaluated on the field, by professionals.

This is huge.

Congrats to the kid, that is a big honor.

I guess Flood does know what he is doing. Congratulations Mr. Russo. Now show them what your made of. Good luck.

Please stop with this. Russo had a commit-able offer for as long as Haskins and Guarantano.

The people on this board who look at nothing other than Rivals stars considered Russo "third option". Fortunately those people don't actually run the program - Anthony is going to have a more successful college career than JG - "take it to da bank".
 
Way to go!! All those WR's who were waiting to see who we land at QB, here's our guy. Now pull the trigger
 
Congratulations Anthony. The Scarlet Knights faithful will be cheering you on every step of the way in the Finals.
 
This staff has an eye for talent and the fact that we are in the NY, NJ, PA area we have thousands of recruits who come to campus and are evaluated in person.

One of the best 18 QBs in the class of 2016, NOT BAD!!!!!!!!
 
I live about 15 minutes from Nike HQ in Beaverton. Will have to check him out in person (if its open to the public).

Hats off to the coaching staff.
 
He was never "a third option" or "plan c". He was offered at the same time as the other two, and whichever one pledged first would be our guy. That's how highly the staff thought of him. So can we quit giving him backhanded compliments or belittling him by calling him plan c or third option?
 
The thing I like about this is Anthony had to earn his way in unlike others who got byes to the finals. We will never know if they truly earned it or not, but we know Anthony did. Congrats, keep up the good work, good luck at the finals and I look forward to seeing you on the banks.
 
Awesome. We have a great QB in our folds. Not to mention Dare, who could be really good as well.
