after losing out on the majority of the elite WRs in 2014, getting Ridley will be HUGE! I think he's the best of the bunch. But, lets not forget that we had Rudolph committed at this time last year.. I do think our staff is learning that they have to change their approach with SFL talent and will not make the same mistakes this next year..

I don't know Ridley or Rudolph, but I think Rudolph was more of a primadonna who gained a lot more interest as the recruiting cycle continued. Ridley is already expected to be a 5* and has a ton of offers and interests from other schools. Ridley's recruitment is taking a much different track than Rudolph's at this point in the process.

I understand the comparison but at this point in time it is quite a bit different, imo.
 
Are we going 7-5 next season? **** it.... Canes should just pack it in for 2014 since we already know the outcome. Yawn.
 
Rudolph was a lowly 4 star when he was commited to us and then all of a suddenly he turns into the best WR in the nation when he goes to FSU.

Excellent point. That is what happened with Alex Collins as well. We offer, kid blows up after UM offer, kid turns around and gives it to UM with a sandpaper condom. Later, rinse, repeat.

Whoever wins the QB battle needs to show up big and we will get our WRs. Stacy should put up monster numbers next year with either Kaaya or Olsen. I am thinking Al has no choice at this point but to go with one of the two. I was thinking Williams but after all that has happened, I think he will need to make a splash. I also, think we will see a 4-3 next year. Al cannot be so stupid has to not realize LSU just removed the 3 -4 from the playbook. No TV, no NT, no NT no 3-4. He does not have another recruiting cycle to wait for. If he is force to go a 4-3 and play with aggression, we can send Miles a thank you card. I love TV but I love our old defenses a 1000 times more. Combination of a real QB and real defense will take care of next year's class. If not, well the new coaching staff.....

I asked Calvin Ridley point blank if he was committing today, and he said he wasn't sure yet. So we can assume this isn't happening today.

Oh, good. I've been a little overwhelmed with the positive momentum around here lately so this is a nice change of pace.

Didn't Pete say something about Genron coaching the SF Fire and already having his meathooks into SBB??

Could these kids be the next 2 meal tickets for that ****bag??

Genron tweeting anti-UM sentiment to SBB on the same day it was reported that he and Ridley were set to announce on Sunday sparked a 25+ page clusterf*** of a thread.

Not saying that has anything to do with these guys potentially holding off their announcement, just answering your question.

4-star WR Calvin Ridley and his teammate, 4-star ATH Shawn Burgess-Becker will announce their verbal commitments this afternoon.
Chris and I are at North Miami Stadium for the Florida Fire tryouts. No time yet for when they plan to announce.
Ridley is wearing Miami shorts. FYI.
