Looks like he's had some legal troubles and adjusting to taking care of a little girl. Hopefully he can get it all figured out and get a chance. Hope our coaches have at least considered.Quote:

I?m impressed with the lack of drama so far. Here?s to hoping we have recruited the right kind of guys that are mature through this process.Quote:

He will sign Wednesday no matter where he goes..Quote:

Question for me is can Moorhead blend our finish with some solid pickups and some additional 4-5 year positional needs like LB and WR.
We are looking at potentially three straight Top 25 recruiting finishes under Moorhead. Tell me he hasn't changed the culture of recruiting for us and stabilized it. He may not be in the teens like the couple times Mullen did, but positionally we are set up better depth wise and have been getting some solid players in here. Lot of young kids on this team that found early success that we can build around
Never said I didn’t expect him to not sign Wednesday..but if you had asked me 3 months ago if Forbes would sign early I would have said no.Quote:

Mullen only made the teens once, 18th in 2015.Quote:

We still aren’t getting big time WRs. Especially RB. Coaching changes this year is going to hopefully boost our end of the cycle recruiting. Difference in the two is negligible.Quote:

Tell us how the great joe did in the historic year for miss talent in 2019.Quote:

Oh, and bothrops, 18 of our 21 commits are from miss or play juco in miss, so if this is a down year in miss, we screwedQuote:

So the difference between the 2 year over year is less than half a point. In 2018, Jett Johnson was #20 overall and was rated a .8518. A full point and a half LOWER than the #20 this year.
So this class isn't a down year overall. It is compared to last year. But overall it's deeper than 2018. A little research goes a long way in correcting a false narrative used to bolster one's opinion.
Did I say this was a down year?Quote:

No. But you've perpetuating the myth that Moorhead isn't a better recruiter than Mullen.Quote:

Going backwards from 2017 to 2013 we finished 24, 28, 18, 36, 24. And that #18 class? We enrolled 26. Moorhead has 20 and 21 from the 2 previous years. Average star ratings? Moorhead's worst is an average of 87.2. Last year had an 88.34. Mullen's best year recruiting on average ranking in his last 5 years would finish 3rd behind 2019 and 2020 for Moorhead.
So this myth that Moorhead isn't better than Mullen at recruiting is exactly that. A myth. You can hammer him for on the field play. But find me a period of time with more ready to play freshman over the last decade than we had this year. Moorhead is getting done in recruiting period.
Mayden and whop being counted for Moorhead is pretty generous of you considering they were coming before Moorhead was here; I realize whop committed after Mullen was gone, but it was known he was coming. Both are expected to leave, right?Quote:

The difference is Mullen could take a 25 average ranked team and beat joe with 15 average ranked team. Mullen is an arrogant bastard who I didn’t personally like but the man could coach circles around what we have now.Quote:

Trey Tuggle just de committed from Tulane. Is this someone we may be going after?
A Tulane commit?Quote:

Why don’t you go start a new thread about some random crap Shotgun.
