| I don't want to start a "popularity contest", rather I just want to offer encouragement:
I've been reading VN recruiting posts for several months now quite consistently, and I just wanted to let you know Lord Vader, you are my favorite blogger. Your knowledge is top notch, you're optomist but not without reason, you don't "bash" other less-informed bloggers, and your posts are always informative and relavent.
Great thread and I think you're right. We may not sign some of these big names, but we'll be much more in-play with the recruits you named as the season goes along.
Thanks for all you add to VN, Vader.
Btw, aside from QB and o-linemen, I really, really hope we pull a game-changing mike backer. Luc seems to be the fantasy pick and I can't argue w/ that.

| SGM, it may not be the same, but what i think hes getting at is to never give up on this staff. You and I both know this is a hardworking, never give up til signing day staff. They are not afraid to go after someone even if the guy is commited and has been commited for a long time. Alot of people think im crazy because i have mentioned that we have a great shot at Luc. Craziness never comes to mind with me when i think of this staff and their recruiting abilities. | |

| Isnt this a "dead period" for all recruiting, meaning that the recruits (regardless of class) cant be contacted directly by coaches?

| Most, if not all, of those committed players LV speaks of will not waver in their commitment. I like the positive attitude. But our coaches aren't the only coaches that are able to get back on the phones tomorrow.... you do realize that right? | |

Do u want them to just lay down on all these prospects? Not trying to start an argument here, but im lovin the approach they bring to the table. I understand there will be other coaches that call as well, but that means what??? | |
