Five-Star Recruit (6/21)

  1. There you again: another lame attempt at humor; another miserable failure.
  2. I swear, some of these suckers are like high schoolers (Matty Ice & C N Red, to be exact.) Get over it already.
  3. Personally I've been very pleased with our Louisiana pipeline. There's a whole lotta talent here that often gets overlooked by the SEC schools.
  4. Sir, with all due respect...I believe Clemson has only been out of the top 15 once since 2010, and was 17th that year. Only one team outside of the Top 10 in recruiting has won the NC over the past 15 years, and that was Auburn who was 12. I don't know why people don't want to accept that. It's real simple: look at the teams who have won it all recently, and look where those teams consistently finish in the recruiting rankings.
  5. I personally think Harbaugh will be able to sweet-talk him into becoming a Wolverine, but as long as we land our other targets I'm ok w/ it.
  6. To think simply a month ago people were ready to light the torches Last month? Heck I was about to bust a blood vessel last week. Very pleased with the way they've finished after the long dry spell. Lamar Jackson however would be the icing on the cake.
  7. Don't believe our "elite" recruiters have stated this excuse. However, it is an opinion of one of our posters and a more then fair opinion at this point. If NU were to get back to finishing in the top 10 standings yearly and finishing in the playoffs on a 1 of 3 year basis then i'm guessing the opinions of our posters would be that we can compete with MU and OSU for top recruits. In January 2016 finishing 3rd/4th is solid - in future years we can hope/expect better !!! Oh, I agree 100%. All I'm saying is, when we return to the Top 10 (and notice I say when, not if) people won't be using it as an excuse, so why use it now? Heck, Callahan sucked as a HC, but even He landed Top 10 classes.
  8. quote = " We are never going to be able to out recruit Ohio St or Michigan just due to their location" No offense but as long as you have that attitude you're not going to get very far. It's just another excuse. Elite recruiters don't make excuses.
  9. Just curious, why do you guys think Chase Allen will pick Nebraska? Thought he was a heavy Michigan lean.
  10. Haha hey man like I said there's nothing I like more than to be proven wrong.
  11. Farniok is N!! Great news to wake up to this morning.
  12. I said the same thing recently and was told I haven't given Riley a chance to prove himself yet. I learned a lot when he passed up hiring Orgeron who would have been a slam-dunk.
  13. We have actual proof, within our own program's history, that the bolded statement is B.S. What this program needs is to consistently land a class between 15-25, and an elite staff of talent developers.... Do we have that now? I don't know, it's too early to tell, but I do know that Riley was hired with his ability to develop talent in mind. Not true. Over the past 15 years, the lowest-ranked team (in recruiting over a 4-year span) was Auburn, whose cumulative ranking over that span was 12. Not to mention they had a once in a generation QB in Cam Newton. Every other team to have won it all was Top 10 in recruiting. I forget who, but there was actually a poster here who did his own research and found what a drastic difference being in the Top 10 in recruiting is when it comes to winning championships. We might not have needed to have the absolute best recruiting classes years ago when Osborne was coaching, but it's a totally different ball game now.
  14. If you want to win a national championship, you gotta consistently be in the Top 10. That should be our goal every single year. We have to break through and start landing more 4-and 5-star talent and not majority 3-star guys, and the only way that happens is if we have a coach who can coach up our current talent and have a great year (similar to what Tom Herman this past year) and create a buzz around the program that will get top recruits' attention, and then have elite recruiters who can actually land them. Hopefully the 2017 class will be the breakthrough we've been waiting for. Landing the Calabasas crew would be huge.
