Sorry Todd BUT that would be just one more rule that will be used and abused. Have visions of Bama putting kids on 'academic' just to keep them away from rest of SEC West schools.Quote:

If Moore was a WR or CB I'd say it sucks but we have to put up with his crap because we don't recruit this position at a great level. On the DL I tell him you with us or kick rocks.
Yeah I'm right there with ya on this!Quote:

Ehh. We stil have Pickering Lovett & Crumedy as Freshmen inside.Quote:

Just a damn shame, the kid was so Maroon for so long and somebody coach, friend or family dissuaded him. Damn shame!
My guess & this is just a guess, is that some in his family believe that his problems (reasons for getting suspended) are based on "hanging with the wrong crowd" & that moving away from that crowd may be the best thing for him.Quote:

That's just my guess. I don't believe this situation has anything to do with MSU & more to do the location of MSU & it's proximity to Louisville.
With nobody else. I'd call that a hole.Quote:

UGA is all in on Mingo. They have lost some JRs to the draft and are selling Mingo hard on that. I think its a State/UGA battle as to where he goes. We are going to put Hughes on him and see what happens. His OV is this weekend and Will Rogers is going with him.Quote:

I think it will be a signing day decision for Mingo and the craziest parts of his recruitment will happen between now and then. It wont be bad bc hes not that type of kid but he is going to have a lot of things thrown at him between now and then bc UGA, FSU, MSU and OM all think they have a shot. I would be surprised if he stuck with OM after their hire. He will visit all of them but I will give us a 50/50 shot at the worst.
So how did the in house with Moore go?
Along with Lee Autry and RS freshman Devon Robinson and Cameron YoungQuote:

It might be the only position on the roster where that is required. But I do love the potential of the young guys.Quote:

300th page. Just saying. 7 pages of recruiting and 293 pages of whatever Clemson, Bama, and Oklahoma are doing.lol
The university's academics took up a good 3 lolQuote:

Then progressively over the next year he hovers in the high 90s and low 100's. He decommits from us and all of a sudden he's now #62 overall. The last time he was ranked that high was November of 2017, 3 months BEFORE he committed to us.Quote:

This is a prime example of why we shouldn't chase recruiting stars. We've (myself included) gotten wrapped up into the evaluation system of these sites to the point that we don't acknowledge the evaluation done by our staff (the ones being paid to recruit).Quote:

I think we could all agree that the level of talent our staff is bringing in is head and shoulders ahead of where we were 10-12 years ago.
So our level of recruiting was good enough to get there but fall short in the big games. I want to take the next step and I think we are. I just saw where Ealy is now a composite 5 star.Quote:
