The only reason they have a, "chance," at these top guys is because they offer early and commit until better things come along.

We don't get any of the drama queens that drag their decision out on twitter.  Maybe just as well we don't. 

Unless Walker was going to be here for spring, he had almost mo shot of starting for us anyway.

I think our juco strategy should be exclusively to go after freshman.  Worked out well with reed, pringle, and Beechem.  (Not Banks though.)

we seem to have a lot of those already amongst the 15 commits. even by the standards of our staff, this class is full of marginal talent, long-term projects, and roster filler.

Ppl continue to bitch about our recruiting, when we have one of the youngest/talented teams we've had in a super long time. It's so weird and overplayed. Get a new hobby dorks.

I didn't see us winning the Big12 Last year or making the playoffs so until that happens I can bitch all I want.

These guys get paid hundreds of thousands to recruit and you can't keep a single four star recruit at the division one level? Completely terrible.

i liked our 15/16 classes quite a bit. 14 was also decent on paper though we had some flameouts. just seems like this year we have a lot of depth type players but there aren't those 3-4 guys you'd hope to able to point to as potential difference makers.

Guess what, it's happening all across the country, not just at K-state, also, he's not a 4 star, dumbass.

we routinely get overmatched against quality opponents.  against the OUs, Oregons, Arkansases [sp?], and, in recent years, Baylors, and TCUs of the world, it's apparent that it's boys against men, and we're fighting an uphill battle from the get go because of the talent gap.

well that talent gap doesn't come from thin air.  it comes from garbage recruiting efforts from old coaches who have no ambition anymore. 

I like our program and I generally like our coaches, but criticism of our recruiting efforts is absolutely warranted.  To get to "the next level," we need some coaches with some fire under their asses instead of the statlers and waldorfs we have now.

I'm taking this one pretty hard, not sure if it's a mix of Lee taking off for the NFL and this, but seeing our D keep losing playmakers is bringing me down. I'm a loser.

I don't know a single soul who follows espn recruiting, but cool. Continue to obsess over 18 year olds decisions.

The writing on the wall has been there for quite some time with this one. Everyone saw it coming.
