jayhawk Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I actually vote for a 4 team tie. If I had to pick one, if you made me, I would pick MU or CU, but I think it is too close to call by any major measure. Quote Link to comment
JGS30 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Well right now KU has the lead with 11 recruits, according to rivals. 1 four star guy and the rest 3 star guys. However, Mizzou will likely come out on top, followed by NU, then KU. Quote Link to comment
melscott62 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 by rankings? probably CU or MU. I think between our recent struggle and our change in recruiting style with a new coach you wont see us quite as high on recruiting lists.....if we start winning again... it might go back up.

huKSer Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I agree with MelScott 62: Best as in what recruiting services say - MU Best as in who fits the system - 4 way tie; CU, NU, MU, KU I feel each of these coaching staffs can now get many of the recruits they identify. Quote Link to comment

And everybody knows how much those stars help you on the football field...why, just last year I saw a Freshman get on one of his stars and ride it over the line of scrimmage and float all the way to the end zone without a hand being laid on him.... Ask again in four years because predicting anything involving a bunch of 17-18 year old knuckleheads is like herding cats. Quote Link to comment

Had three nephews graduate from there with engineering degrees within the last five years....right now they are using all of the education they garnered from the MU Engineering Department to create Missouri's first telegraph....

SOCALHUSKER Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Recruiting services, preseason polls, player rankings. They all suck!! Nobody knows what a team needs more than the coaches and the players, so who cares if a team only recruits a 2-star lineman or a zero-star scat back!! Maybe each has the ability to do exactly what the team needs and that would make them the best recruiting class for that year, wouldn't it? Quote Link to comment
SOCALHUSKER Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 By the way, the best recruiting class in 2009 will be the Nebraska Cornhuskers!! GBR!! Quote Link to comment

Well, I hope they finish forthwith so that they may facilitate the wiring of instructions for indoor plumbing to Iowa's odoriferously hopeful citizens. Quote Link to comment

They're waiting for another MU grad to invent the extension cord so that they can string it into Arkansas to get electricty to run their telegraph... I'm still amazed when I see the MU-supplied computers they use...first time I've ever seen a Commodore 64 equipped with a hand crank... Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I voted for the Buffs because whether some of you want to admit it or not we are going to struggle to get the "nationally ranked" recruits. We will get the recruits that the coaching staff wants, but that doesn't mean they will be 4 and 5 star guys which is fine because I want character first. Hawkins has done a pretty good job so far getting the recruits to CU and they are located in a beautiful area. Watch out though because if we start winning again we will start pulling in the big names again and I look forward to that. Quote Link to comment
bbhusker Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Where did Tom Osborne's recruiting rank? Oh yeah, we didn't have much talent or speed on our teams. Tell that to Miami, Florida, and Tennessee. We just need kids who have heart and fit what the coaches are trying to do, not who Scout and Rivals say to recruit. Quote Link to comment
