First two games really a reminder that in the NFL if you don't have a quarterback, you might as well pack your bags before kickoff.
It's a shame how the evolution of the game and the focus on that one position in particular has really produced a lot of bad to watch football in the NFL as of late.
Mandatory "Stars Aren't Everything" Comment:
Neither Kam Chancellor nor Russell Wilson are on lists for their respective schools
I'm questioning my fandom, going through that list there were a lot of names I didn't know.
I totally agree with marcb2. Alabama, USC, OSU, FSU all pretty much recruit themselves with name recognition. 99% of kids have a dream school and if a HC or lead recruiter from that school offers they will pop...........
Ah, yea I see where it says that now.
edit: not sure why it didn't reply where I meant to.. that was supposed to be in reply to 07Hokie
wasted talent and no-shows everywhere
The list is 2000-present
Yeah so I kinda called that like 2 months ago. Shameless pat on the back.
Why isn't Mike Vick on the list? I thought he was a high 4* out of HS?
No D Hall or did I overlook him? I was also shocked that my boy Jimmy Williams(Hampton, Va.) was that low on the list.
So they're basically choosing syphillis instead of herpes.
And yet good coaches at good programs keep hiring him...maybe, just maybe, he's better at what he does than the perpetually underwhelmed peanut gallery thinks.
All of the blue bloods make guys look like better recruiters than they are...
From prep school rankings. His real numbers from HS are lower down the list. This seems to be the case for a number of guys.
According to this DJ Coles was the number one rated recruit in the country and a 5 star?
Michigan State has 6 claimed national titles in football. They also have a massive number of alumni.
Amazing that there were 2 Zack McCrays both recruited in 2010 but slightly different sizes and rankings.
A lot of wasted talent in that top 10
What did they need him to be and what exactly does he excel at?
BC to lead nation in WR screens for a loss
I appreciate the fact that the Redskins actually have the sixth best record in the NFC, so it's not like there are any teams getting screwed by the automatic division champ berth.
Unlike the Jets with the Texans.
Still an upgrade for BC. 93rd, 83rd, and 126th in the last 3 years.
Any time you can hire an OC whose offense has been 74th or worse in yards/game the last 3 years you have to do it.
Right because until Frank retired everyone expected him to be here through 2019.... And we had 8 other recruiters none of them got as much talent other than maybe Stinespring who had been recruiting the region forever. Not to mention a lot of his recruits were NOT coming on the heels of 10 win seasons. In the 2014 signing class our top three recruits were all recruited by Shane, that's after two mediocre seasons.
Bought our tickets tonight for the $900mm drawing. Wife decided she wanted to pick her numbers this time. As an added wrinkle I asked Siri to lick numbers as well. Let's see what happens.
