Calm down Francis. Don Muffin isn't destroying 9 years of work by poaching 1 OL from us. It is the early period. We can sign another one.
At least we appear to have starting tackles for the next 3 years. Really need those jucos we redshirted to pan out and be depth this upcoming season and starters in 2019
It just was not necessary to blow up the whole coaching staff and start over. The program was not in shambles. Looks like we are paying for it with Bishop, Carvin, maybe others. Hope I'm wrong but this seems like a big mistake by CJM.
Bishop was tied with TBuck but Carvin was strickly a Hev and Gonzo recruit so that didn't matter who we kept. Rod Gibson has taken over lead during the transition. Let's see how tonight's visit goes. But Bishop is the only guy that you can make the case for right now
I amazed at the number of pus$ies around here.

I agree about the early signing period. I was in favor of an early signing period, but I want it to be in November before thanksgiving. If a kid is hesitant that a coach might leave or get fired, then they can wait. In fact if the early signing period was in November, I?d be fine saying kids that commit to a program that then FIRES the coach should be free to re-open recruitment, but guys that early sign with a coach who then chooses to leave for another job don?t get released. It does hurt programs the most that have their coach poached (MSU and Oregon are the 2 P5 programs to have their HC hired elsewhere this coaching carousel, seems like we are gonna probably be ok, but Oregon is ****ed, they lost tons of top end talent and don?t really have much chance to get them back on board fast enough for the early signing period).

Also can anyone photoshop JoMo's face on Harrison here and Muffin Man's face on the other guy

So there is a good chance we can still land him. I was just checking the crystal balls this morning and noticed it. Seems like we have a legitimate shot if we have the in home after the others he?s considering, if him having a hard time telling people no is accurate.
We need some OL talent and depth if we are to take the next step.
cmon Dawg ... he IS poaching us and he knew back when his expense and salary was being paid by us that he was actually recruiting for some other school ... we basically paid him and his assistants to recruit for someone else and although it might be legal it's bullshit and unethical ..... I can't wait for him to lose to a South Alabama type opponent because I'm throwing down some Makers Mark when it happens
Per Steve, Carvin hasn't committed to anyone and reports that he has is false. FWIW
Well he got us 23 other commits including a great QB, RB and looks to be 2 excellent WRs so I can deal with him poaching 1 OL and a kicker we don't need. I am no Don Muffin fan right now and that should be obvious but he left us a great class to sign and it's only the early period. Joe can fill any remaining holes, which looks to be only 2 spots, by NSD.
