Maybe somebody needs to teach JoMo how to do the Dougie.
Why is Griffin McDowell still on page 1 under "current dawgs"? Thats the one that really shows what a piece of shit Mullen is imo.
Who is scheduled to visit this weekend?

This is the most wrong thing I have ever read on here, and that is saying something. If he doesn't recruit well, we will get our teeth kicked in. We play in the SEC, and the reason we have a good team next year is two reasons. Mullen and Hev for all their faults were good at developing an OL that could run Mullen's system. Next year's OL is a bunch of 3 stars that are going to kick ass and take names.
Our defense is littered with 4 star players all over the damn field. SImmons was a five star, Peters 5 star, Leo Lewis 4/5 star, Gerri Green 4 star, Spencer 4 star, Sweat 4 star, Cory Thomas 4 star. What players are we hoping make an impact on offense next year? Heath 4/5 star, Guidry 4 star.
Lets be clear, if Coach doesn't recruit well, he will lose. Anyone saying otherwise is just wrong. Also, when you have a MS class like 2019, I don't want to hear shit like "Coach doesn't need to recruit well, he will just coach em up". I'm sure he expects to recruit well next year, and we as fans should expect that as well.
I'm not sure why the board is so sensitive when a few posters get upset when we lose out on a recruit. That is normal, that shows that fans care. You know who doesn't care about recruiting? Fans of teams that don't compete for shit. Bama fans are freaking the **** out over a class that is outside the top 5. That is a good thing. Saban apparently is not happy with how recruiting is going and is going to make staff changes after signing day. That is what elite programs do.
Its ok to be pissed that we are not closing well, because in 2019 and 2020 if we are struggling on the field and are wasting KT's talent, its going to be because of misses in this year's recruiting class. That is why we end up winning 7-8 instead of 9-10.
It's mostly about scheme bro. It's not like we're gonna fall off the earth in recruiting. We will have a highly productive offense as long as CJM has athletes.Quote:

Talent > over scheme all day.
Well by this recruiting scale we’ll sign 8 possibly 9 4* players this year. So i’m not going to have a meltdown. If you’re putting the negatives of this class on this staff then you’d have to put all the positives on them too. They covered our most needed position to give us a real shot at 2018. I agree that recruiting is the cornerstone of a program but I’ll wait to see what the staff can do with a clean slate in 2019 and hopefully after a great season before I go asking for headsQuote:

That can't be questioned.Quote:

Well guess what. Every other school has that same mentality and things they can sell. We missed on OL this go around. That's not new. But if you can't tell Moorhead is doing things differently you just don't get it or don't follow on social media, which quite a few on here don't do.
So no I'm not drinking kool aid. I'm just watching what we are doing differently. And it's a lot.
Late losses:
Winkel: 84 - 3 star
McDowell: 83 - 3 star
Mason: 88- 3 star
Bishop: 87- 3 star
Smith: 88- 3 star
Late targets we've got a good shot at:
Lovett: 88- 3 star
Watson: 86- 3 star
Brule: 88- 3 star
Reed: 85- 3 star
Young: 85- 3 star
Yeah, put the melters in their place "cooterpoot"
Sounds good to me. I was just pointing out that saying a coach was going to win regardless of how he recruits is a terrible thought.Quote:

We need depth everywhere, and since some high rated guys don't pan out you can't just ignore the potential or lack thereof of the bottom of a class.Quote:

Name me one top 10 team that "literally doesn't care" about the last 8 spots in a class, and I'll show you 4 CFP teams that do and but their ass till signing day is over to fill every spot with the best they can.
You are doing mental gymnastics to say OL and secondary recruiting doesn't matter, and I'm concerned for your health if you honestly think you're objective and rational about recruiting. Ari, IYOK, Steve, and literally every coach in the nation will tell you the bottom of a class and every single position matter.
What about frudge?Quote:

It's just hilarious to me how quick you guys change your mind. 7 made a great point earlier that when we dropped Reed everyone was saying how he wasn't SEC quality and we're better off moving on then as SOON as we re-offer because our class is getting poached he's a great pickup and we aren't really missing anything from our other targets because Reed is back in the boat and 7 is just a negative poster with no valid points. Seriously? Now, I originally never wanted to drop him and am glad to have him back and I hope he becomes an SEC caliber starter for us but damn.. you talk about being realistic. Negativity (and positivity) and facing the facts is a huge part of being realistic.Quote:
