Dude you hate every recruit that commits/signs. Crawl back into your hole and stay there.

Cool bro. Post more screenshots about things that have have absolutely nothing to do with what I'm talking about

Flip Charles and I’ll feel better about the developmental kids
Great point Beast .Not worried. Mario has shown he will continue to recruit over guys until the finish line.
If Mario can find better, he will drop dead weight.
I think that is a bit extreme. Unless you are saying you expect every recruit to be a hit.We are back to Mario can’t recruit again lol joy
Since schollie limits are increasing for the '25 class, I expect a few more flyers of course. Mario won't settle for all 20 additional spots to be developmental types but there will be some to go along with his taking things personally whale hunting.
I have no problem with a few. I do think coaches need to be careful not to dilute quality after they are finally getting it back to decent.
I noticed that other than McConathy and OJ, the guys being raged about from the 2024 class are the higher ranked guys. And many of us felt those two were the most underrated in the class. Little mention about projects like Francavilla, Minaya, Russell, Wheatley Humphrey. Yes they’re more developmental. But it’s concerning nevertheless.
do your self a favor and watch the kids film. Kid is legit.I'd disagree. He's at a program that anyone from wherever who recruits S. FL knows. There had to be a reason why Maryland was his top caller until we came and changed it up for him.
There is no reason to compare Mario or anyone on this staff yet to Butch or his staff. He's been a head coach long enough, longer than Butch when he started assembling his supremely talented roster. I'm by no means swinging from Botch's nuts, in fact that's what I always have called him, but that man and staff found talent.
As for all of this talent they see before it manifests itself, can you give some examples. I've seen a pretty detailed analysis of Mario recruits and that's not how I'd describe it.
I haven't watched a lick of this kids film. I hope he develops like a m'fer this year and on into the future. I'm all for our kids finding success on and off the field.
I do agree that not being ready in a players first or second year doesn't necessarily mean they're a project. In particular on the lines. You used to have to wait your turn, but today it's a different game. Players bolt all the time after their first or second year when they'd be better off staying, working, and improving. While that is true, they expect playing time (usually undeserved) early on and teams give it to them. It's a tough time to ask for patience and the time to develop their skills. In particular their strength, body, endurance, and the mental aspect of the game. That's why I said project, ****, it's a project to keep them around.
Franca Villa has been mentioned a bit on different pods and I don't think he has to do too much at this point with Rodriguez emerging. Wheatley Humphrey has wiggle and focused on putting on size will probably be used for STs. Others crickets.I have no problem with a few.

It's not concerning at all…Many freshmen don't get mentioned.
How about "noteworthy"? We've heard about Lyle, Trader,. Carr, all the DEs, Scott, Pruitt, Hayes, Patterson, OJ, Lofton, even Judd. Not so much about the lowest 4 rated players from last class. Again, a handful of flyers are fine, just not too many.
