Thank you

Great speech by DMo. Some interesting notes during the speech: Said when he played he was 6’1” 230 ran a 4.35 40 and could bench 225 47 times. Also was leading the league in rushing in front of Barry Sanders and Emmit Smith before a knee injury against SF.

I don’t have XM is there anyway to listen to this or could someone give the highlights

Those recruiting rankings always get them in the preseason Top 25 though.

UM has questionable people in charge. There’s a ton a good coaches out there that they missed out on. Mark Richt screwed them good, but there were still better options on the board than Diaz. If Diaz was so good then why didn’t any P5 program go after him? I’m very glad they hired Diaz...

Like someone said earlier. How can we all get upset with Key for saying that when most of our fans bring up academics in a negative way all the time for recruiting.

Great point

Cristobal, Kirby, Pruitt, Mel Tucker, Kiffin. All were highly touted because of their time under Saban

Win recruits at all cost. I’m sure he will negatively recruit Bama if it comes down to us and them.

We have people who negatively recruit our own program constantly. Smh

He the #2 recruiter in the country and basically laterally moved from Bama to here. I would say that’s a pretty big deal.

Getting Key was my biggest hope. The only hire I was skeptical about was Patenaude because I wanted to give the OC job to get Key to get him here. We got him without it

Just saying we can still have really good recruiting classes with a sub par record. Look at Tennessee

Also it was Tenn not SC that beat them

Kirby went 8-5 lost to Vandy, Ole miss, SC, UF, GT and almost lost to Austin Peay or someone similar and signed the best class in history that year.

Unless things were to turn into a dumpster fire I wouldn’t say any less than 3 years before hot seat talk should be brought up.

Like watching the Texas Uga game. A good QB can make a less talented team play elite. Elliger is nowhere near a world beater but the guy toted Texas and keep the momentum for his team. If CGC can recruit decent and we can sign an above average QB you never know how far he can take you.

Exactly it’s kind of like government spending. Keep asking for more and never tell them that we have a surplus. If we have 50 say we could use 60 even if in reality we could get the same results with 20.

^^Exactly... CPJ was a great coach but I can almost guarantee CGCs worst real recruiting class here will be better than CPJs best. Whether it changes our productivity is yet to be seen. CPJ did benefit from the ACC being terrible for his first 8 years. Nobody was a legitimate consistent top 15...

I’m not sure but I would imagine some big boosters probably thought that donating more money would just be a waste because of how the scheme limited recruiting.
