Mavric Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Not sure I like that we're still offering WRs and it's kind of odd that several of them are already committed elsewhere.I mean I don't know what else Williams is doing at this point besides twiddling his thumbs. Might as well be 'crootin. Not what I meant. I meant it seems like we're not so sure on our top targets. Not sure why you would take that as we are not so sure on our top targets. Until they sign no one is guaranteed. The process is to keep building relationships until the spot are all full. It does look like we have decided that it is a TOP priority to get a tall guy. However, continuing to look for top guys is not an indicator that we have missed with others. Man we have a staff that are showing signs that NU is a good destination for kids - now we want them to stop the process and wait for signing day? - have some faith!! Again with the strawman. It's you go-to move. Man you are funny. Where do you come up with the strawman? You might want to figure out it's definition before you come with some go to move idea. Thanks for the humor thou. No problem. Simply show me where I - or anyone - said we should "stop the process and wait for signing day." I'll hang up and wait for your answer. you were talking about how it seems we aren't so sure on our top WR targets and he said to have sone faith and wait it out, our coaches are just following the process. Seemed like a normal response to me. No straw men in sight So you're ignoring the part that I specifically quoted? nope I'll address it. He never said that anyone said we should stop the process. It was a hyperbole to how you were reacting to our strategy in WR recruiting right now. He never said that you said that, it was exaggerated take on what you were saying. Just because someone drops a sentence that no one actually said or was really inferring doesn't mean he is arguing with straw men, I just think you need to ease up a little If you think there is a distinction between an eaggerated take on what I was saying and a straw man argument, you must be who GBRFAN was laughing at earlier when he said people didn't know what a straw man argument was. in fact there is. He never set up the strawman by fabricating an argument from what you said and he didn't knock said strawman down because after he made the statement you are referring to, he didn't vehemently argue against it. GBR responded to what you said, gave his take and then gave a hyperbolic statement to cement his point it shouldn't be weird the coaches are still offering WRS. I know what strawmanning is and that wasn't it and I think it's a little annoying when you go around accusing everyone of doing it when they disagree with you Yeah, good try with the semantics. You're missing the forest for the trees (intentionally I think). Quote Link to comment

Not really you nitpicked the very end of the post and called him out four strawmanning for no good reason I don't think I'm wrong here that's why I've been arguing it. 2 against one brother 1 Quote Link to comment

Atbone95 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 I don't know anything besides what I'm putting here, so I can't be more helpful. But a source inside the program says we are about to flip a current Iowa commit. No idea, but http://247sports.com/Player/Eno-Benjamin-58645 just tweeted Keyshawn. 4* RB, doesn't appear to have an offer at the moment. He's from TX, so why he would be tweeting Keyshawn is pretty suspicious. Quote Link to comment

Decked Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Would take Benjamin in a heartbeat. Also a +1 for stealing Iowa's second best commit Quote Link to comment
chamrocck Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Any battles we are having with USC? Their fan base does not think their coach is the long term answer so SoCal is open beyond Calabasas High (although we should still take Darnay). Also, Notre Dame sucks...who can we steal?
