Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[KPT_VFL]

Harsin isn’t going to last at Auburn. Dudes already fired two coaches in year one. Many won’t want to work with him. Auburn isn’t killing it in recruiting and SEC only getting better coaches. They’ll dump him in 3 years or he will leave before it gets bad.

This is stupid for anyone not named Nick Saban….

First of all, I dont believe it. Secondly, if these figures are accurate, the LSU AD should get absolutely no credit for this hire. Any sane individual would take the LSU job for a king’s ransom.

Urban or Fickell?

If it's Fickell, will have wait until playoffs are over. Well unless Houston wins. Fickell could be waiting to see if Day takes Bears job.

 

[Weezer]

Miami needs to go ahead and fire Diaz so we can have even more fun.

 

[BigSteve09]

$15,000,000

Man oh man

 

[VolGee4]

I mean, I guess that’s a good hire for LSU. He’s done well at ND. But Brian Kelly doesn’t scare me, and it will be interesting for him to play an SEC schedule.

 

[KPT_VFL]

I think Kelly will do well enough but ultimately flop at LSU in comparison to what they’ll expect in return for that amount of money if accurate.

 

[Volfanatic_20]

How many can we take?

I think they will land somewhere between 25-30 depending on who leaves.

What portal entries are we in on?

Gibbs
Evans

I don't know of anyone else for sure right now. But there were 100 kids that went into the portal today.

Petty how exactly? BK sent that kid up in a scissor lift in unsafe conditions. He's culpable in my opinion.

That's disingenuous. As far as I'm aware, Kelly either wasn't even on the field or at least had absolutely no instruction on the matter. And why would he... he's not in charge of the kids who film. That's someone else's job.

The guy is an absolute douchebag, but he didn't get that kid killed.

 

[pierce60]

Don't think this is a fair comparison. All 9 years of MS is in the SEC. BK did his in a weaker conference.

Um….

ND’s 2021 strength of schedule= 16

KY’s 2021 strength of schedule= 42

ND’s 2020 strength of schedule= 7

KY’s 2020 strength of schedule= 28

ND’s 2019 strength of schedule=16

KY’s 2019 strength of schedule= 51

LSU absolutely overpaid, but that's probably because Riley bent them over before going to USC. They seemed convinced they had him. Then they didn't. So they threw a lot of money at Kelly so as not to get spurned again.

 

[Volfanatic_20]

Crawford RT next year?

He will have a chance for sure. Off-season development will be huge for him. They will look for an OT in the portal in my opinion.

Christian Charles will be a starting safety next year.

[Jackcrevol]

Cam Johnson in the portal.

 

[JT3]

This would have been better if Heupel would have sent out this lol.

 

[SoilVol]

How does LSU have so much $$$? No wonder Will Wade gets top 5 recruiting classes every year.

That's the thing, they don't. That school is basically bankrupt. The state literally can barely budget to keep the doors open but they're about to pay this... insane.

 

[KB5252]

Mark Stoops could be a victim of his semi success if he stays. If he's smart he'll realize he achieved his ceiling at UK. It doesn't get better from here, but pay of me thinks he may really believe that hype and thinks he can compete in the SEC.

I hope he stays, but if he was smart he'd use this crazy coach season to upgrade his position to a better school in a weaker conference.

 

[SoilVol]

So "Hypeul"?

No, Hypuel.

Heupel is going to have this offense humming year after year.

 

[UTSuave’]

I am SO GLAD to be on the outside looking in on this one, with popcorn

Confirmed?

 

[KPT_VFL]

Today basically confirms that if we don’t build back with Heupel or another up and coming coach we will never be back. No way UT going to shell out money like this. Before long even average coaches will be making 10+ mil per year.
