Football Recruiting Thread

Does CK help or hurt this class?  Should we have a nickname for him?

[Dugout DickStone]

I feel like Darren Sproles will add a lot to this class.

[Panjandrum]

I'm also counting Harold and d-rob for this class. Good haul overall.

I'm sorry.  D Rob?

demarcus robinson

I must have missed something.  He's been with us for two years?

Is this because he kind of flaked and came back?

it's as legitimate as counting a greyshirt 2 or 3 times

As a response to the previous conversation, grayshirts should only be counted one time, and that's the year they will actually become a full-time student.  So, really, the year after they show up on a Rivals or Scout commitment list.

I'm surprised anyone would say differently.

I enjoyed page 135 of this thread a lot.

I think you're confused about what is going on here.

who is Xavier Gates and what is his story?

[8manpick]

who is Xavier Gates and what is his story?

In my NCAA 12 dynasty he is KSU's all time and single season leader in sacks. Also a two-time all-american.

Nice!!  But does he exist anywhere but in NCAA 12 dynasty?

are we still messing with Harold 

what's the latest info regarding him ?

Maybe Harold is still messing with us.

I feel like Fanning really missed an opportunity to throw some HJ analogy into the conversation at this point...

Ryan Wallace
Since Rivals inception in 2002, I would put KSU's 2011 recruiting class in a tie for last all-time with KSU's 2006 recruiting class.

 

Gotta hand to Bill, he does have a knack for translating success on the football field to success on the recruiting trail.

For what it's worth, I don't think Ryan Wallace knows wtf he's talking about. So we've got that going for us.

I had considered that. Hoping you're right.

I looked up KSU's 2006 class and that was the one with Freeman, James Johnson, Josh Moore, Rob Jackson etc.  No way in hell that is the worst ever.   I tend to agree he doesn't know what he's talking about.

Wallace becoming a full time staff writer for GPC is one of the low points in the history of that web site.

I'm sure he's a nice guy, but he's really, really, really awful at that job.

But he is a sports journalist with high integrity who would never stoop to making unsupported and sweeping statements without thoughtful analysis and statistics to back them up.

He's actually kind of a cocky little prick.
