Recruiting Forum: Football Talk XV

[UTProf]

How could the kid just now be figuring out he's not a Butch fan?? Did he never once interact with the man, or see him on the practice field, the ENTIRE time he was being recruited???

I don't think it's a personality clash. When I try to put myself in an 18 year old athlete's shoes, here's what I'm thinking is a bigger possibility: "Man, I'm just as good as Barnett, recruited higher. That should be me racking up all those awards."

The next step is for Hendrix to figure out why that isn't happening. If he realizes it's because he still needs some development then he may be ok but if he thinks it's because coaches didn't give him a chance and won't then he's gone. It's a big decision and an emotional one and I hope he stays but I can see how Barnett's year could make things seem hopeless for Hendrix. How would you feel if you arrived on campus and the other DE in your freshmen class turned out to be Clowney?

Cam should do a "seatbelts save lives" PSA.

(Of course, driving a big tank of a truck helps, too.)

I think we will take probably 30.....since apparently there are some players that are thinking about transferring. Also, I think there might be another decommitment or two.

I don't mean this as rude at all, but that isn't how it works though.

Except we didn't hear about playing time per se, we heard he "didn't like Butch" ?

Congrats Face. I recently passed my FAA exam to take another step toward becoming a pilot. I know how it feels.

I didn't have a clue you were doing this too. Where do you fly out of & how many ratings do you have knocked out so far?

 

[TechnoVol]

I figured that's what it was given the "outlet" that reported it.

I don't resent anyone trying to make a living or get a site off the ground, but that article Darago put up was absolutely pathetic. He's proceeded to be a douche about it on Twitter.

Completely agree... Darago seeks attention to feed his ego. He thinks he's a legit journalist but he's far from it. His so-called story on Malone was made up for his own benefit.

I miss finals week in college. And college.

I've been flying off an on for several years. I don't even have my private yet. I have everything done accept my long and short cross countries and FAA check ride.

We own a Cherokee 140 we fly out of Downtown Island. Kdkx

D stands for diploma

So did Cowherd ever decide to divulge who this new mystery Michigan coach was? Or was he like a lot of other journalists, and just making noise to get attention?

I'd forgotten all about that.

SDS has us number 15 next year. Disagree on Mizzou being high. They lose all their WR's, RB, and DLine.

The way-too-early Top 25 for 2015

Surprised we were put at 15.

I sure don't. My hand felt like it was about to fall off after writting essays for every final.

I know!

Top 10 all the way!

Reported for offensive material.

I could see us sneaking in around 23-25.

But yeah 15 seems too high. We might end up there by the end of the year. But preseason that's too high
