. . . Our recruiting has taken a nose dive. It is what it is.

We are in a nose dive . . .

. . . This isn't brain surgery. It's taken a dive. If you can't see that, I guess you can call it what you want. Sunshine pumping. Head in the sand. Myopic. I don't know.

We taking a dive, but we ok . . .

Perhaps but we've already seen our top 3 players in this class decommit. That should at least concern some people

If kids flipping to lsua&mc, TBD, Missouri, and Texas Tech is concerning to anyone, they really dont understand the position our school has ALWAYS been in compared to those schools. maybe one day those types of flips wont happen to us, but we surely didnt just fall into this position in the last year and a half. i will add, someone could still always find a way to be concerned about it.

What exactly is this board for? Lying?

No but if you take the dogmatic stance that you must be overtly truthful you come across as "the purveyor of truth" even if you never utter those words.

And this is a very valid point. Anyone not willing to consider it is burying their head.

P5’s don’t really need to extend offers anymore with NIL, sit back and see who you can get through recruiting and portal, when guys on your board go elsewhere, call up kids like Horne and offer him $100k and a scholarship at the last minute and he is gone. This isn’t really anything new, we lost people at the last minute every year for a long time and it will continue to happen.

Another reason why I don't follow recruiting.

Oh, nothing about grown men fawning over kids on Twitter interests you?

[JMV JustMyView]

Wins are down

Attendance is way down

Donations are down

Recruiting rankings down

Stadium pushed back for who knows how long

What a great outlook for the future.

This man is listing FACTS!

Duggie, I simply made the point that AT THIS POINT, there was a significant drop off in the list of recruits. That having 2/3 of the list being unranked projects is an awful lot to hope that they turn out to be Robert Hunts.

Point well taken.

MAT is the only purveyor of truth. I think JamesTheJeweler and MAT are related. Literally related. In MAT and JTJ I trust. They have valid points.
