To the best of my knowledge, we just haven't really recruited him in general. We were hot on the trail of Trent Lockett from MN, but he went elsewhere. Obviously we also have offered White.
I still think our priorities are Diamond Taylor, Jordan Prosser, and Jamil Wilson. I'm not an expert or anything but those three seem to have the most interest from Bo, and I think we have a real good chance at landign Prosser and Taylor. I also think (not positive) we only have three schollies for 09, so that could also be a factor.
