NoLongerN Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 EZ, love those thoughts. Thanks for sharing your insight. Good stuff. Good read. Link to comment
TonyStalloni Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Tom O made a living at taking small town kids and occasionally making them into good or even great D1 players. Most of the time they had to practice in the system for a few years at game speed in order to learn how to play fast. The weight program gave them the strength to play strong. While Sioux Falls isn't small class necessarily it also isn't large class Calif or Texas where kids come out college ready. It may take 2 or 3 years for Nathan to get playing time here and he may never play....some kids with good high school resumes and all the physical skills never make the transition. He has the tools to be good. His desire, hard work and a bit of luck will make him very good. Link to comment
why not Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 What an outstanding prospect! Holy smoke, I'm sooooo glad be beat USC, Alabama, and Oklahoma for this kid's committment. Agreed. Guess I am still pissed about Cox. Top 40 player and it seems the board didn't see that as a major fail. To me, seems like we are drooling over this guy. He is a "get", another prospect yes. These are some of those full retard posts Paulie. No full retard is blind "wow" at every single recruit. Some of us happen think that Gerry is a marginal prospect at best. If you don't like that opinion then too bad. Congrats! You managed to dis on two portions of the disabled population in the first five words of your post. Any chance you can insult the hearing impaired or non-ambulatories in your next post. Maybe your can broaden your insults to inclue race, religion, gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation in future posts. I'm looking forward to it. Link to comment

why not Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 You're turning the definition of "tough" on its head. Suddenly being too timid to stand up to bigotry is toughness? Those who stood by and did nothing when the Nazis killed six million Jews (and Slavs and Gays, and the disabled) in concentration camps, those who were afraid to say anything when the Khmer Rouge killed over twenty percent of their own nation's population, and those who were afraid to stand up when some Hutu nationals killed a half million Tutsis in the course of a couple of weeks were some true effin bada$$es.

HuskerFowler Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 hes going to grow into a olb Speculation or inside knowledge? the fact that he is 6'2'' and over 200 lbs as a high school junior...... Sean Fisher, in high school, was 6'4" and 230. Most thought he'd end up at DE and that never happened. I can see Gerry playing LB at this level. But if he stays at S, either FS or SS, he's going to get burned more than toast in Helen Keller's kitchen. He runs a 4.4 40 at that size chief, you dont know as much as you think you do Link to comment

I can tell you won't make it very long here. I ment toughness in the fact that you shouldn't take that personal in the slightest. Relax. No baby seals were clubbed, no gays were burned at the stake. Nobody is chanting Hile Hitler. Relax. We are a bunch of adults posting on a message board. I don't believe political correctness is always a virtue. 2 Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 If we would have missed him, he goes to Mich St and lights it up.....our coaches cant recruit. Just cant win with some people. You think you would realize that the coaches, especially Bo, knows talent. If you take for instance, we had around 400 kids come through all the camps the last few weeks, let alone all the kids he has seen come thru all of his programs and go on to the NFL, he knows what it takes to get the job done...ESPECIALLY AT DB AND LB.... And if Bo sees a guy in person and says, ya that guy has what it takes.....guess what, he has what it takes. Link to comment
