[Slick]

Prince recruiting is a result of karma.

[LimestoneOutcropping]

Ron Prince is the Tom Asbury of recruiting.  Discuss.

He has [allegedly] tried to bang a married Manhattan woman whose husband was associated with the university, just like Tom [allegedly] did. 

Good point.  I also think it is similar in the way it was just so bad, all the time and we started out with high hopes and were always thinking "maybe he knows something" but in reality it is snowballing and getting totally out of control and in 2 years will fall apart.

Second question, is there another black D-I coach who is worse at recruiting high profile black athletes?

Hmmmmmmm,  well apparently there are 6 of them http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/preview08/columns/story?columnist=maisel_ivan&id=3521354 , but I can't think of them all

Croom = Miss State
Willingham = Washington
Gill = Suny Buffalo
??

Randy Shannon - Miami
Norries Wilson - Columbia

Karl Dorrell - UCLA (Canned at the end of last year?)

Limestoneoutcropping is full of crap.  I KNOW we are beating Columbia and and Buffalo in recruiting.

Probably true, but I'm no expert on this years incoming class at either of those institutions.

Unfortunately, Randy Shannons ability to recruit the "South Kansas Region" not only compensates for Wilson's and Gill's shortcomings or restrictions, but it makes Ron Prince look that much worse. The fact that both Brown brothers opted to leave the state of Kansas is SO disappointing and discouraging to fans, that I think it's largely ignored and not talked about.

Bro, I'm not hating at all.  It's hanging out with Pete and zacker that have me doubting.  I had Pete believing after Auburn game.  I think it is '07's skid and the apparent bad recruiting that have folks hating.  I just think that a charasmatic black coach like RP should be cleaning up, especially with the lure of instant playing time.  My jury is still out.  Beat Louisville and I will be all...

We're in agreement. I even think we may have watched the Auburn game together last year. I was in from out of town and watched it with Pete. If you watched it with Pete I was there... and there was much to be excited about in the game. Obviously 0-1 was not good, and it appeared there were problems on the O-Line. None-the-less I was a believer too. It was an epic fall at the end of last season however with major staff losses in the off-season, and big misses on the recruiting beat that have people doubting. Although I don't consider myself a hater, I'm a doubter right now...but that's only logical at this juncture. I hope Dax is right on the money and we're all being foolish, but I think I'll wait until Louiville as well to get any hopes up.

Limestone, SuperG is Groves' brother....connect the dots you &@#%ing dolt (Boston U. Law School Grads are &@#%ing mouth breathers).

Point is....I am a fickle bitch (like 90% of all sports fans), so if he wins I'll get down on my knees and suck him off (right now I am saying that metaphorically, but if he wins the north I'll really do it.).

How am I supposed to guess that?  They didn't teach that type of deductive reasoning out on CommAve.

BTW, I wrecked the scoot up a bit in the Rivermarket.  Didn't actually wreck it per se, but clipped a truck with by left brake handlebar.  Lesson learned, don't drive a scoot with a drink in your hand.  Folks, if you drive a grey Toyota truck that parks in the handicap spot at rivermarket, my bad.  Sorry for the scratch on your door.  It will buff out.  Don't be a lazy racist.

Back to the topic at hand...Ron's 2009 recruiting is going to be really, really fun to watch.  First we had the "Wow, Ron is recruiting early and will reap the benefits that Snyder wasn't able to gather." Now, we have the "Yep, he's doing it like Snyder, waiting to get a good evaluation, etc."

None of those hold a 48 oz jack and coke.  I am going to customize this bucket of bolts.

Recruiting:  Ron should be a star with NFL ready black athletes who want instant PT.  Browns should be here and would be stars.

100% QFT. + any NFL ready offensive lineman. There's no excuse for getting out recruited by Dan Hawkins.

Scooter: Get one of these: http://www.hydrapak.com/catalog/product2103.htm. Holds s70 oz.'s discreetly. I see the "active types wearing them all the time up in the mountains, but would be perfect for your needs also.

[The Manhatter]

[treysolid]

after summer evaluation, schilz is now listed at the 36th best pro-style quarterback.  though no stars yet, which is odd.  hopefully he has a really good senior year.

Schilz is now a three star.

Pretty good news when Tulsa is ranked ahead of us.

Schilz is now a three star.

I still prefer to view him as a 2 grey star QB.

"Won't qualify"

Safe assumption?

[IM2009]

Why isn't Prince catching more sh*t for spending so much on recruiting with such horrible results?  The other big spenders on that list pull in top ten classes all the time.

what else do you want me to say? I've been beating that drum since it became apparent he can't recruit worth a sh1t. (2 weeks after freeman)

I finally figured it out.  Why Princess does not recruit Kansas.  It's because he likes to play CEO and fly to wherever he is recruiting.   

[IM2009]

Ron Prince is the Tom Asbury of recruiting.  Discuss.

He has [allegedly] tried to bang a married Manhattan woman whose husband was associated with the university, just like Tom [allegedly] did. 

yeah like that would be the first time.

We'll sign him anyway.  He'll look great in a Coffeyville uni next year.

Information has it that this was the thought at first but I guess he has hit the books hard. or got the  DA treatment and passed his Algebra class without making the grade.

He's a DT.  Look for him to commit over the weekend, then open up his recruiting in a few weeks.
