If the other possible transfer who?s name I heard was visiting, well done getting him on campus. Now close the deals. We need DBs
If it is Eli Ricks I would be elatedQuote:

It’s not 1995 anymore. Money talks, and the coaches should be engrained to our NIL pitchQuote:

Well we will need an explanation to be sure we got every single person that we expected to get with this exciting close. But long time till Wed and the dead period hasn't started yet( some peoples best time to recruit.)Quote:

We're not getting every target. Calm down on that people.
Ha. That's right, but there sure is a LOT of build up going on right now and our closing history usually gives people the opposite feeling of how people are feeling right now. I would just like to know what the excitement is over, so I know if it comes to fruition or not on Wednesday.Quote:

I heard the spread from the Little Dooey's caused 5 more to instantly commit on the spot tonight /s

They can get it together and get behind a message or campaign with the best of them. We just bitch among the factions to see who controls the message. We will continue to be us until this gets unscrewed and very strong leadership take the helm.Quote:

Maybe not in the next year or two, but in the next 5-10 years.Quote:

Yes if Cohen isn't going to market and lead he has got to hire people that can do those thingsQuote:

This is who sets the culture and how they direct that is what has to change. We have to many in it for them and in it for the university as an institution.Quote:

This is in no way a post about the message board crowd. I think you might understand those of which I am referring, no need to drag names and places into the public space. Factionalism controls whos in place, this a certainty. Which put us, who are already in a disadvantaged situation, into a brutally hard place. We do ourselves no favors. Thats the way it is, not pretty but it is what it is. To my view this actually makes our accomplishments that much more outstanding.Quote:

I agree. We need Williams to sign.Quote:
