Interesting how coverage of some guys falls off the map.

So'd he pick UCLA or what?

Seems like everyone stopped recruiting him at some point.

Anyone know whatever happened with this guy?

Well if we are moving towards Alabama's offense, they are still getting 4 and 5 WRs so we should be able to find some interest.

Carl Crawford choosing baseball pretty much killed those teams.

But of course, recruiting doesn't matter.

There was definitely a lull at the end of the summer that appears to be attributed to staff's effort. I think the lesson was learned.

I still think this playing him where he wants stuff is questionable though. He's lucky to be there and he's getting his way as far as position? If Bo thinks he could really be a qb then fine, give him his shot at qb. But if he thinks Marsh is a safety then don't piss around, make the kid a safety.

Maybe scout team depth at QB? I think he finds himself out of his element fairly quickly and will make the move after next year's Spring practice.

I'm pumped for the fro

 

 

I believe his measurables are off. I don't think he runs a 4.45 after watching a lot of his film, that is too low for him. I believe him to be in the 4.55-4.6 range, not the recorded 4.45. After watching film of athletes like prince who was only a 4.5 40, sub 4.5's and 4.5's flat appear to be a lot more explosive and faster high end than bell. Not saying he isn't fast, but not as fast as his measurables report.

The Fro was slowing him down. Needs to shave that, get more aerodynamic.

Crabtree called himself "a clueless tool"

 

Fixed it

FTFY

The issue may be one of focus. If you totally concentrate locally, you will not have enough players to fill the class. If you focus on Texas, there are more than enough players to fill the team.

As far as economics, you can see as much talent in a weekend in Dallas or Houston as you would across the 5 or 6 other states. Saves a ton of travel time.

Ideally wee don't lose guys from Kansas to Miami and guys from Colorado to UCLA, but you can't get everyone.

An interesting angle. I think that makes the return to LSU for Bo mentioned in a speculative article in the Big 12 blog makes more sense.

Just like some of the guys wouldn't leave southern schools for Notre Dame (the alleged dream job), would it be a place like LSU and the recruiting hot beds near by which eventually draws him? We may find out soon as Michigan may change course and this time Les Miles will follow through.

Ideally you get the best players in a 500 mile radius because you should have an advantage over Texas or Ohio State for those guys instead of having to compete with them on their own turf. So when you lose them to Colorado or some other second rate program like Missouri, you are weakening yourself.

If only there was a forum for discussing recruiting. Oh wait, there is!

One of the things that Fehoko is looking at is atmosphere. He says he wants to go to a place where on gameday, the "town stands still" and says that the atmosphere in Lubbock is like that.

Well, I suppose wherever Utah and Utah State are, those towns stand still, but what happened to UCLA, Washington, Cal?

Here's a link to a good LP highlight film if anyone is interested. I love the way he almost just dances around or hops when he is waiting for his blocks and then just explodes when he has the hole.

 

LP

Does he then fumble it 2 or 3 times at first contact?

Anyway,

I assume you are NOT in compatibility mode, right?

I don't get that. What browser you guys using?

well, what's it look like to you? I'll give you a hint, that's a pancake. Now for the googling.
