Booker t fiasco- staff give Kirkland an ultimatum. Big deal
Mat Thomas- just see current events
Amari cooper- hey there Monday morning qb. He was not this sure fire can't miss prospect. Oh and it helps and receivers look pretty good when you can run the ball as well as bama.
Disagree with Coop, when his film was out u can tell he was gona be a boss. I thought he was the best prospect at wr that year easily. You cant even jam that kid he was out when thaqt ball was snapped.
We tried to force him to commit and turned him off. Posted numerous times.
Booker T was not handled well despite whether we were in the right. Never should allowed to go public. Ice on the radio complaining we took an offer away three days before signing day is awful. It also probably had an impact on Thomas, regardless of what has happened now. That is a feeder school. We should have gotten those kids.
I've read recently on other boards (and maybe this one) where high school coaches email videos to the coaches for months with no response. Finally when the coaches figure out another prospect in the area (think this was the two D-lineman in North Carolina), we "discover them." Also recently happened in Tampa with Brennan Carroll with another prospect.
We've signed some great players and I know Golden can recruit. But I think we are not yet that well oiled machine like Urban Meyer was or Nick Saban.
