Nickerson sent 20 or so kids to a D1 school while coaching at Bishop O'Dowd. He's well respected at BOD, and the state of California.
Yeah, Nickerson is very well known, well liked, and well respected in Cali.

And was the coach for Vera-Tucker his Freshman year
Am I wrong in being a bit surprised that there have not been any commits yet?
We're something like 40 days into the Lovie Era. I know much of that was a quiet period and Spring practice obviously has taken up a lot of time - but I would figure someone would quickly pull the trigger.

How many of those 40 days were spent putting the staff together? That kind of takes away from recruiting.... Why am I not surprised that this kind of comment wasn't posted earlier.

That there are no commits yet isn't necessarily shocking given the timing and the other prerogatives. That the staff couldn't at least prevent so many of the state's best players from committing elsewhere in the meantime is the bummer.
