Fantastic discussion . . . it really shows that K-State is at the pinnacle of DITR recruiting.

jfc you guys. Getting a hand job is better than nothing. That's what these recruits are. They're hand jobs that could lead to something. Take what you can get.

I'll sit this one out SteveDave. No more "just the tip" references for fanning.

Ah. Yeah, I thought we knew that was going to happen anyway? He wanted to stay on the West Coast or something to be closer to family.

I think this was supposed to be sarcasm. But it is correct.

Wallace just tweeted that there's recruiting news in the wabash. Anyone?

Pennel's going to ASU. Back to basketball, where a fascinating segment from Monday's Frank Martin Radio Show has been posted here: http://goEMAW.com/forum/index.php?topic=18753.msg448913#msg448913

Panjandrum · « **Reply #3186 on:** January 25, 2012, 01:26:30 AM »

Okay, now I'm kind of pissed.

jtksu · « **Reply #3187 on:** January 25, 2012, 01:28:38 AM »

Not sure why not landing Pennel would piss you off. It was encouraging to get a visit but I think we all knew he was a bit of a pipe dream.

wabash909 · « **Reply #3188 on:** January 25, 2012, 01:29:16 AM »

No offense to jtuck and The Manhatter, but with Pennel failure it's amazing that anyone at this point is capable of defending Snyder and recruiting.

A high impact JUCO DT was a major priority in this class and Snyder, HOF coach and program just coming off a Cotton Bowl appearance just lost out on a player we desperately wanted amd needed to a train wreck of a program and first year coach at ASU.

If that doesn't tell you all you need to know, I don't know what does.

It's pretty embarrassing. That should have been in the bag.

yeah, totally sucks. but "should have been in the bag?" dude's from colorado originally, went to juco in arizona. means he most likely wants to play in the pac-12. arizona state has amazing women, amazing uni's, and amazing facilities. it rough ridin' sucks, but not really surprising.

*not apologizing for snyder, i've just come to accept what k-state recruiting is.

jtksu · « **Reply #3191 on:** January 25, 2012, 02:32:00 AM »

Dude decommitted from Pigaggy late, we got a visit, and he should have been "in the bag?" I'm not saying that I'm not disappointed in not landing him but I'm not pissed either. Losing Bender would piss me off, not landing Pennel is really not much of a surprise. I guess I'm just tucking the crap out it lately but I feel like Snyds was able to recruit well enough for us to reach a Cotton Bowl, with even bigger possibilities next year. Maybe you outta tuck a bit yourself, 10-3 feels pretty good.

sonofdaxjones · « **Reply #3192 on:** January 25, 2012, 06:02:46 AM »

K-State was 1-3 against Final Top 25 teams.

So getting fairly highly rated and much needed DT's is simply not important.

this just leaves a spot open for demonte hood, who (if he even decides to come here) will probably quit halfway through his first year like lamonte clark. hooray recruiting!

I figured you guys would be recruiting better, but hey, if it's any consolation in my NCAA Dynasty you guys make it to a BCS bowl and Daniel Sams wins a Heisman..

The eff ?? You're obviously not playing it right.. We've won 3 Ships in 5yrs in my dynasty, and I really would of won 4 had I not created "BadAss [redacted]" who ended up spurning me at the last minute to go to Bama and then totally eff me in the NC game..

BTW the game announcers will not say "[redacted]", it just says his number, they saw me coming..

Once again, you're focusing on the symptom and not the root cause.

This isn't about swinging and missing on Pennel.

The problem is swinging and missing on Pennel and then not having another realistic options for an impact DT for immediate help next year.

The bigger problem than that is the complete recruiting failures of the last two seasons at this position of need by this staff that has put us is this position.

We've got one quality DT in Lutui, one guy who has done nothing in two years in Boyd and one new guy in Hollingshed. Just an FYI.

But go ahead and convince yourself that Snyder and co. will magically fabricate 10-2 seasons with that type of talent along the interior defensive line.
