9 Diamonds in the Rough in this class....and counting....
« on: January 30, 2012, 08:11:48 AM »
Just did some quick analysis of our recruiting class, in terms of the number of BCS school offers.

GREAT NEWS!  Our staff, once again, was able to correctly identify 9 "diamond" high school players (nearly all of our HS recruits) who no other BCS school was able to identify!  BOOM!

BCS Offers:
Hood = 3 (Arkansas, KU, Wash State)
Epps = 2 (TCU, Baylor)
J. Jones 1 (Arkansas)
Bender = 0
Britz = 0
Burton = 0
Davis = 0
C. Jones = 0
Leverett = 0
Seiwert = 0
Small = 0
Vaughn = 0


It's starting to look an awful lot like the spring of 1993 around here!

Bender would have an offer from The Nubbs if Pelini was not a POS coach. Interesting story with that one.

Bender, Epps and Smalls are legit players that a number of BCS schools would probably take

Burton and Brilz are good enough that somebody else would take at the very least KU

Hood is good enough but his grades scared others off

The rest of them no other BCS school was going to take and that includes Judah Jones who claims an Arkansas offer.

Better not let The Manhatter see this.

Ever heard of John Obscureguy at OU in 2007?!!!!  Guy didn't have a single other D1 offer out of highschool with a 22" vertical and ran a hand timed 4.8 40 in the shuttle. 
Texas Christian University coach Gary Patterson has been hired as Kansas State's 34th football coach, multiple sources have confirmed to GoPowercat.com.  Patterson replaces Ron Prince, who was fired Wednesday. - Tim Fitzgerald   Nov, 7, 2008

Yes. It's glorious. Upon landing in Egypt, my first priority is commissioning fipps to do something similar with Anwar Sadat.
