Recruiting Forum Football Talk LX

I like Florida’s ‘Stand Your Ground’ law, but that looked like murder to me.

It for sure was. Fist fight like a man

So I think I remember asking and not getting a response, but why dont recruiting websites use star average as the main way to score? Seems like a better way to do it.

Makes too much sense.

this was back when Fred Warren was on a roll in the UK. ETSU had just built a brand new practice Golf Facility backing up to Buffalo Mtn. He recruited some famous golf player, that's all I know. I graduated and left in '03. Then came back in '05. I actually thought Rory attended ETSU, apparently not.

For some reason or another we toured the facility. To me, as a fisherman, it looked like some Caddyshack ****. But coach Warren wouldnt shut up about it. I never understood why ETSU cared more about Golf, Tennis, and Bball than other sports. (i get the women's soccer thing, thanks Rab).


Rory McIlroy once signed a letter of intent for East Tennessee State University | For The Win

Lol thanks Rab. 😂

You and I graduated ETSU same year. I now play golf some with the guy who took the scholarship when Rory turned pro. He's from Scotland. Man Coach Warren has had some players through here.

Which is a better class?

1. 10 4-stars (avg 4 stars)

2. 10 4-stars & 10 3-stars (avg 3.5 stars)

It’s the way I look at it.

Tiger is like a story I heard in a movie with Burt Reynolds a loooong time ago.

Burts character is a cop or PI I cant remember which, but he tells this story about a young kid he knew when he was a boy, he said the kid could ride a bicycle on top of a fence, and how amazing it was that the kid was fearless and that he never fell off...till the day he finally fell. Once that happened he could never do it again...he fell off every time he tried. Whatever it was in him that told him he could do it was forever broken.

Tiger has lost that part of himself probably forever. And no matter how much of a lowlife he was or is...that is sad to see to me. He was amazing.

Maybe. But some wrote him off for good...as in, he wouldn’t compete anymore. When you are out that long, it takes a little time to figure it out again. He has shown he can compete again. He just needs to put it all together.

4 bad swings go the other way and he's not even in contention.

That can be said for almost any golfer in any golf tournament.

Lawless is gone.

 

[swchandler1988]

[BigOrange15]

That’s a Bass level take right there

Its an excellent take.

 

[HankHill]

Officially?

Yes.

I recall the women's team being fairly good too? No offense, i don't give one flying rats ass about golf, but women's golf, well, certain members of the women's golf team were appealing ill just leave it there.

Best thing that happened for the Buc athletics program was getting Stanton out of there. Guy was major league medical school homer.

I dont think a team is going to take only 10 recruits

Just an illustration as to why you can't do star average by itself. But fair enough; let's do a more realistic example:

Team A: 4 stars - 10, 3 stars - 15 (3.4 avg)

Team B: 4 stars - 9, 3 stars - 13 (3.41 avg)

Which is the better class?

Thats true. I guess it just seems like there could be a better way to go about it. I dunno
