    Coburn had some struggles upon arrival but this source made sure to give him props for his effort level. Ojomo’s movement skills were praised, “he’s going to play.” The most glowing was reserved for Mike Williams. The sourced used expletives to emphasize both his movement skills and strength. It’s important to remember the pads haven’t come on but you have to walk before you can run and these guys are power-walking like Scipio down a San Francisco slope after Indian food.

    That kind of clenching can’t be good for top end speed.

    This is single handedly the worst and most embarrassing take I have ever seen from a so called recruiting insider. This goes right up there with the worst prediction I have ever seen in Hamm’s 0-16 from a few years back. I am starting to sense a pattern.

    Funny you should mention that since Banana Republic actually sells green army utility  jackets.

    That leopard print lining is going to make it somehow some way into a new turdition for the corps. Those are fabulouuuuuuuuus.

    Lets see if Goodell goes on a witchunt like he did Zeke...

    Noone cares about Buffalo, his attention to this matter would be better spent asking NY Giant season ticket holders about how much they are willing to pay in PSL fees next season.

    Yea, but...besides that

    It is a well known tactic of sports media to try and piss off the biggest fanbase you can in order to get attention. Nothing is going on during the dead period, so they just start lobbing dumbass grenades. 

    "Why Nick Saban will retire after going 1-11 this year."

    "Why Dabo Sweeney could be on the way out at Clemson."

    "Arizona State will win the Pac12 this year."

    In summary:

    1. Hamm is the best in the biz

    2. Jimbo is getting everyone he wants and his handpicked recruits are destined to all be 4 and 5 stars after the season. 

    3. The support staff, who has done nothing yet, will be as good as Saban's.

    Launched by a team of young entrepreneurs in Austin, Texas, Rev Gum was created with one goal in mind: to make energy products more portable and better tasting. One pack contains 6 gems, the caffeine equivalent of 6 cups of coffee in a better tasting, more efficient form. No matter where you are, what your goal is, carrying a pack of Rev Gum enables you to be Be Intensely Here.

    Maybe friends or relatives?

    Most likely a friend's company that he is just trying to help out with some exposure.

    Someone needs to clue vegas in...that’s not how this rollercoaster works.  

    They only got one taker at 60:1 and it was some lady named Karen. She called so many times they had to cut her off.

    Gary Johnson was a Herman/Orlando recruit

    That was one of the 3. Gary Johnson, Dele Adeoye, and Byron Hobbs. 

     

    Johnson is a stud, Dele looks like he can be a stud at some point, Hobbs I am sure is going to be good if he sticks at LB but we just need numbers. 

  10. From the looks of things, ending up with Gbenda and/or Carter means that something went wrong with the top of our board. So my guess is that we end up with both Gbenda and Carter. LB and DL seem to be the areas we have had the most trouble recruiting on the defensive side of the ball since Herman got here, even though we ended up OK on the DL last cycle. We have spoken ad nauseam about Giles and his prowess on the trail, but what about Orlando?

    He is a witch of a DC, but we have signed 3 LB's in Herman's first 1 & 1/2 classes, one of which may switch positions in Byron Hobbs based on his physical development. The commit from Adeoye saved our LB class from being a disaster last year and we will need depth at all three spots after this year.  It seems that relying on national recruiting for all of our LB targets this year is a big risk and Gbenda might be a much needed safety take. Don't get me wrong, I am pumped about DeGabriel Floyd, but we were in a similar line of thinking last year on Dashaun White and it came back to bite us.

    Aggy boards already talking about grey shirting some of these lower rated commits because they are going to fill up and the 5* studs will be wanting in later.

    Except the NCAA pretty much put an end to greyshirting a year ago. But by all means aggy, go right ahead.

    If this starts another round of back and forth of diatribes, you have nobody to blame for this but yourself. Never mind the intellectually lazy nature of this comment.

    I was just trying to raise CTJs blood pressure this morning.
