    Yes, our smart fans want to see us sign kids that have produced at a p4 level or excelled at a G5 level.

    The Rice safety looks good, I hope it translates.

    I do not want a dumb fan base that celebrates signing kids that have done nothing at all on a p4 level and then wonder why we are getting skull drug by freaking wake Forest.

    Either land some quality players or just start sending the money to Jans and baseball.
    If we land the tackle from UAB and one of the upperclassmen guards to go along with Steen at the other tackle spot we will be in good shape for next year as our offensive line tacking shape.

    And I'm not saying we should stop there. But our fans need to stop melting down over every player that isn't a 4 star portal guy. Indians only had three 4 star portal guys out of the 20 something guys that they signed.

    Everybody ok with Cordova? His offer list out of high school was pretty impressive (247), not sure it?s all correct.

    There's more than just "melt" or "rah-rah" on the spectrum of reaction. I'm solidly meh right now until I see that OL take shape and have producers. I prefer the G5 guys who proved they should be a level up. Love the Rice safety signing. But most of our other signings are based on potential. May work. But often doesn't.

    If one could simply go by offers out of high school, this guy is the most loaded guy on the team now.

    He definitely has an impressive offer sheet. The talent is there.

    I'm wait and see. I usually don't complain when I feel like the staff is going to fix the problem because it's not productive. Player acquisition takes time. Big difference between January 10 and February 10.

    The portal isn't closed yet for another 6 days and technically the season still isn't over yet.

    There are no foolproof signings in the portal unfotunately.

    That's where most of us are. Just when someone comes in with the toxic positivity or the toxic negativity the middle group rips them. Reacting to that ripping needs to realize why they were ripping.

    Money plus Raleigh, NC vs. Starkville, MS. ?Might? have played a role. Some guys just aren?t looking for the small town living.

    Of course, a guy shooting up 6 people in West Point last night might scare a few people away too!

    I was speculating. That is why I combined ?money? with ?location?.
