Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Vol423]

You should try paying attention to avg recruit ranking, like I said to you the other day

Why would he do that? He just wants to bitch and whine.

Do you guys and others realize our recruiting average is going to likely plummet as the classes closes?

Look at who else were seriously in on:

Sensabaugh (.86),
Wallace (unranked),
the Kent State commit (unranked)
Cole Harrison (.84)
Rodriguez (.87)

It's moot really, taking 5 more kids (VERY LATE) when we already have who we were after, doesn't make the class worse, just the optics you're mentioning. There's also always late shockers nobody sees ahead of time, so it's an assumption. Heck we just took Staes today and it improved our average. Now at 14 bluechips.

Bill C. has also shown that your top 10 kids in each class are actually more important than the overall. The lowest recruits are necessary, but not typically meaningful anyway.

Clemson took 15-20 kids for years, finished ~15th in rankings and won multiple titles by going after quality (and top QBs, etc ofc)

Adding 5 kids on the tailend doesn't really matter, we already got or didn't get our top wants. And our tops are nearly a 95 average.

They’ll switch from the quality argument back to the “we need depth” argument, and make it sound pretty despite the fact we’ll be in the lower half of the SEC in the recruiting rankings.

Nah you’re just ignoring reality. You pumped up butch’s class, then had nothing to say when I literally posted avg recruit compared to his “top 10” classes lol try harder

Did I not concede that his class had 34 kids or something? You even replied to it.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Great price for that vs what we could legally sell for

I also think it’s worth a $50 bottle as well

It may have been $60.

You also Said butch recruited great. Meanwhile, we’re actually recruiting better than we have since Fulmer.

You’re trying to play both sides here so you can come back and say “told ya so.”

 

[Devo182]

See

Uhh I didn't say we needed depth.

Said it's moot because our top end is that strong. It's not like adding players at the last minute somehow makes the class worse

As if not adding kickers, which lower your average, is somehow a good thing That would be just based on image. Our top players are there regardless and that's what matters...according to the best mind in CFB data

I guess we will see, won’t we? Go pout in the corner that we didn’t land player xyz because you wanted them to be a Vol

Easily the best since Fulmer.

But I guess we need 40-man classes, just so half of the guys have no room for snaps and transfer out...perfect and great for culture!

@Freak ?

Same

 

[Orangeslice13]

Well recruiting typically means players coming in, not players you already have. I could be mistaken though.

The cheese has moved.
There’s a different way of looking at things now if you want to actually know what is happening

Please find where I said butch recruited “great.”

If I can get you a bottle want me to pick one up? I'll be out your way after the new year.

 

[Adam Sandler]

Mario Williams of USC in the portal. Doubt we do anything there though. Already got our slot guy in Squirrel.

You didn’t come out and say it but it can pretty easily be assumed that’s what you mean with the post you replied to here:

You conviently left out 5 star tackle McKinley. And juco’s aren’t ranked in recruiting.

Nah, the distributor will eventually get it back. I appreciate it though. You’ll have to remind me you’re coming and I’ll have a bottle for ya that’s 59.99

I asked a question. I didn’t remember. I was then reminded it was 34 kids, which is insane. Which I admitted. I didn’t say anything.

You’re behind the times.

Lol ok.

So to get this straight, you replied to a post saying we are recruiting top to bottom the best we have since Fulmer by asking a question about butch having a #4 class. Yet you still get on this board daily, and bitch about the recruiting that has been the best it’s been since Fulmer.

Did I get it all correct now?
