Leaving this here

I remember something along those lines, too. Richt and Manny didn't want to over-sign the position, already had Ivey and Blades locked up at CB (and Frierson was being looked at there, as well), and believed they had a legit shot at Campbell and/or Surtain. Pure hubris. You don't pass up on players like Davis or Samuel. Make room for the elite kid if he wants in later. But do not save his spot and have an 80%+ chance of losing the 4-star wanting in.

in fairness, manny had kids he wanted to sign off on and richt wouldnt green light

2 of the 3 were bought and paid for. So unless you’re willing to open up the checkbook like fans of those other schools, I don’t see how we can criticize a guy who consistently turns so so talent into great cornerbacks.

So I guess my point is, be careful what you wish for. Put Rumph at Alabama or Georgia and our CB recruiting is really gonna suck.

Precisely. But rather than consider the facts people would just rather trash the program and got the gall to call themselves fans.

I don't know, Paranos, we're making excuses in some of these cases. The best player on FSU's team is Samuels, and he wanted to be a Cane. I didn't think the Davis recruitment smelled like an auction. We've let our fair share of gettable kids go.

That said, I do think Rumph can coach. And I really like Couch and Williams. He just needs help with recruiting. He's coming along, but needs to get there faster.

And we would have had 3 CBS under 5’9 and everyone would be talking **** so what’s the point?

Highest graded CBs in the country through 3 weeks. Anyone recognize the top 3 names?

But please, tell me more about how Rumph’s development trumps his lack of recruiting success.

He played little sisters of the poor Texas Tech wait till he plays someone.

Jaden Davis would be starting here as a true freshman. He's going to be a high round draft pick. He is playing excellent football for Alex Grinch at Oklahoma. Sure open field tackler. Blanket in coverage.

Never had a real, committable offer from Miami.

This is one of many reasons why we ******* stink, brothers.

Jaden Davis would not start here. I guarantee it
