Funny bit of irony, 4 star OL Hiva Lutui from Trinty Euyless has dropped UCLA. His cousin is a UCLA commit and he was a soft verbal but never really committed. UCLA was always in his top 3 but now he has totally dropped them and not considering them at all. Post coaching change, Klemm was recruiting him. Guy has no magic with the kids from DFW!

Klemm seems happy as a clam out there in LaLaLand. Lately his twitter has even made Reinebold sound like a Debbie-downer. Was he that happy at SMU? I never took notice...

Yes, he was good a using the social media to help recruit. Granted , a lot of coaches(at other schools) are nowadays from what I am hearing.

No, Isaiah Folasa is his cousin and is a safety.. It looks as if Isaiah Folasai will not be admitted to UCLA so he is looking at other options.

Hiva Luti is his an OL from Trinty

Either way, why can we not get any big Samonan recruits!!!!!

Also, looks like Simon Goines out of Keller will be visiting UCLA. He was being recruited by SMU and committed to Missouri

Klemm was shown the door, get over it. He was a rookie coach whose mouth and twitter got him in hot water here. Great guy, green coach, but showed no loyalty to his mentor and fellow coaches that got him back into football and SMU. Assistant coaches don't need to be told to keep their mouths shut and their opinions about the head coach and fellow assistants "graveyard"! The is true at any college or professional program--only the head coach speaks. He is happy and growing problem on June's staff is gone. Next!

It doesn't look too good on the recruiting front when we're still talking about this sob Klemm.

I don't care about Klemm anymore since he left SMU. What I do care about is what our coaches and staff are doing about the impact it is having on recruiting. What concerns me is the lack of action on our part to minimize the loss because as of right now, it sure feels like we're hemorrhaging.

I guess he learned that from June. What loyalty did June have telling recruits that he would save a spot for them at ASU? Klemm was one of Mora's first priority hires and had the offer about the same time the tweet was made so if you want to say he was shown the door to make yourself feel better fine.

What are the details of his tweets/comments? Must have missed that somehow
