I think a lot of what went wrong tonight was a team that didn’t want be there. They said as much when the bowl was announced. Shame, CPJ deserved better. Shameful how he was spoken of in the game chat regardless of the product on the field. CGC has big shoes to fill, I hope he fairs better...

I hope our new coaches are magicians.

I hope we burn these unis.

I hope all these “recruiters” can actually coach football.

Yes they all talk about it but not in the same way. For a lot of kids, they are the only member of their family to ever go to college. For our kids, they talk about being set for life if football doesn’t work out. You can tell they’ve been sold on the forty year plan and that it really means...

Do you ever read the quotes from the recruits?

Why don’t we modernize the logo while we’re at it?

I don’t hate or love ‘em, they’re fine for a “one/off” or bowl game that is basically a glorified scrimmage. But you’re reason is the absolute worst reason to like them. Reveling in anything divisive is the last thing our fan base needs.

hurdles, what are those?

I’m trying to decide if the conclusions drawn from this data is anything different from what we already knew or suspected? Even me, a known star system skeptic, realizes that your odds of making the NFL are greater the higher ranked you are as a recruit. But then again, I’ve always thought...

Gee wiz Wally I hope so, too! ;) Seriously, suppose he brings his Temple OC?

That would be a great Choice! (y)

Oh joy, it’s the dreaded recruiting rankings debate thread risen from the dead. Just what this board needs! ;) On a serious note, the numbers tell me you can make your hay in the lower range if you have top notch talent evaluators and enough of them to scour the country (iow, watch film)...

Our new offense has been announced, I must’ve missed that? ;) Oh you must be referring to our new NFL style offense… I forgot about that.

Or find kids where school is greater than or equal to football on their priority list (iow, most of our current players).

I never said or implied ND was trying to flip anybody in this class. I have no idea where that came from.

Who says you can’t buy championships? We are gonna have to do a whole lot better than that if we want to compete and I don’t care who the current Pied Piper is.

It’s the voice recognition software on my phone. Just being lazy and not editing.

I agree with that, even the part about the offense shrinking the pool. But here’s the catch, Coach Johnson’s unique scheme and superb game day coaching mitigated or offset the lack of talent to some extent. The exact opposite can also happen. A bump in talent can be offset by poor coaching...

Thanks for the reply. I think he’s right, I think Gailey and his staff were pretty good at finding those guys.
