1999 Era Recruiting vs Today (Derailed Maason Smith thread)

[Zbrod95]

I feel like I woke up in 2002 with all this recruiting success.

 

[jkaz1]

Dierdorf was an OL.

If you look at 1st Rd draft picks, AA's, pro bowlers, awards winners, HOF, years combined played in NFL, NFL starters etc etc...Miami is out front by a wide margin. I'd put it up against the entire big 10 and its history... think about it... Who has Michigan produced atb the DT position? Dan dierdorf? Trevor Pryce? That's it basically. Acai St has who... Dan Wilkinson? Nobody else worth mentioning. Mich St? Penn St might have a couple guys wroth mentioning..... northwestern etc etc. lol When in comes to quality DT's Miami may top the entire big 10's production.

 

[Canes Brotherhood]

Pulling a 5 Star DT from LSU would be a top 3 moment in our recruiting history. That just doesn’t happen. Buckle up boys

 

[brock]

Now this guy probably isn’t going to come but i appreciate his comments about our facilities considering he visited most elite programs

This will be payback for Patrick Johnson Peterson.
Proceed.

Dierdorf was an OL.

My bad was thinking of messier but he wasn't chit either really. Penn St might have a couple scrubs for back in the 60's 70's but nothin Miami can't match up with

Proceed.

You’re not wrong but I’m still salty over that one. I guess I should let it go one of these years

 

[fresssh]

James Williams tweeting that should say something! Definitely smoke. Manny going all out and capitalizing on the NIL

 

[Big Toney]

This one hurt

 

[Bennubird]

NWO

Top left above the fold...he’s comin.

 

[Canesq]

Proceed.

For real. Still salty about that lol.

 

[DB4]

I'd throw all my pants out forever if the Canes managed to land Maason Smith and Leonard Taylor.

 

[vlcane]

This got put into the Marshall thread by i think @htownkidd from Wiltfong on 247. Didn’t want it to be missed because of the implications of possibly landing 2 5* DTs and what that could mean. The god-king Cribby said in the same thread we’ve been legit contenders for a while. Worth its own entry

“Maason told me the scheme at Miami is his favorite. I'd consider that a long shot but **** maybe some of these other recent wins were considered long shots at one point too. Miami staff doing a terrific job, I mean terrific job, building relationships and particularly showing a exciting defensive scheme to play in on the next level."

Let’s pray that we land this beast, but if not I am still happy to see the direction of our recruiting and the studs that we lucky to have!

 

[Dwinstitles]

I’ve allowed my brain to enter the world where we have high end 5 and 4* blue chips at every level of our defense

Taylor and Smith
TLewis (maybe we take a shot on him)
Williams, Marshall, Collier, Tae, Kinchens

Maybe we **** around and get Shemar Stewart next year. Who is ******* with that 2022-2024? That’s an entire defense of savage dogs. That’s how we compete with Clemson

We getting Stewart bruh as of right now

Could you imagine adding this guy with Taylor and Haye? This D line class would be out of hand. Then you add next years defensive ends. Jesus.

Couple that with the athletes we’re gonna have in the back end and a spread offense.. good luck to everyone in CFB.

Getting this kid would be the biggest coup in the history of recruiting.

I know we’re in a roll, but this one is unrealistic fellas.

 

[FrancisSawyer]

Ya, he’s huge, can move and he’s so good with his hands it’s hard to even touch his body.

It would be interesting to see Mason Smith go against Nolan Rucci in 1 on 1 drills. Elite vs elite.

 

[hiphopanimal]

Proceed.

I am still mad about that. He was always going to be a total stud.

How did we lose him? Did he get bagged up?
