Agreed but here's the way I see it at the moment.

We are getting two of the four:
Ford, barber, green, and Kamara.

Good haul anyway you slice it

We hope. JoJo could have moved on from UT with UT having no say in it at all. People always claim WE passed without having any clue if we did or not. Just because the kid did not come, does not mean we did not want him here. We have missed on a TON of RBs the last few years. Maybe it changes this class, maybe it does not. Naming 4 guys and saying we will get 2 has not worked out at all of late.

Look at who his top three are now. That tells you that more than likely he was cut loose to explore other opportunities whether through direct communication or via stall tactics.

Not a bad thing at all IMO.

Or those were the schools that showed him the most amount of love over the longest period of time. Alot of players don't buy into the idea of wanting to be a teams fall back plan/option. Not saying he was ours, but that could play into alot of recruits thinking.

I do find this puzzling and I will be especially puzzled if we somehow end up missing out this year. Only explanation at this point would be that we've just been down in the dumps so long, players just don't want to take a chance.

The biggest thing this program needs right now is a winning season.

You mean the two teams that were in bowl games this year and the one that beat us a year ago? See I thought you were talking about really bad teams.

Come on folks, we can only hope that we had experienced the success that WVU has over the last 5-8 years. People still refuse to accept where we're at as a program at THIS MOMENT and where others are at THIS MOMENT. Notice I said this moment and not since 1926.

"I talked to coach Elder and he said he was going to come back down next week. That was the first time I had met him. I usually talk to coach Graham," Kemp said. "It was good. He explained a lot about the school and that got me very interested."

"Just talking about playing time and the style of offense they're going to be running and how I have a good chance to come in and play because all of the other guys that are there are going to be getting used to the playbooks just like I am if I do go there," Kemp said. "So, everybody's just going to be starting off on a fresh start and that sounded good. Then, he was talking about my running ability and the way I run the ball and how it fits the offense and it just got me all fired up."

"I'm just going to approach it open minded. I still have to go up for an unofficial to South Florida and I just have to keep an open mind because I've got to see the place where I'm going to spend my next four years so I'm going to approach it open minded and soak up everything and just go from there. Whichever place feels like home than that's where I'm going to go to," Kemp said.

Kemp said it's down to Pitt and West Virginia, who he's already officially visited, as well as Tennessee, Kentucky and South Florida and noted that the environment he feels on campus will be the biggest factor in his decision.

"The environment. I know the facility part is great and I know all of that so I'm going to be focusing on the environment and how the teammates interact," Kemp said.

Don't know of this has been posted but Kemp's cousin is Marlin Lane and Marlin has apparently sung our praises for a while and trying his best to get JoJo here so we have a player who is heavily recruiting JoJo.

I agree with this 100%!! So many people forget that when we were really good, most of these kids were just being born....at the oldest 5-6. It's sad but true
