Pete, D$, etc....what seems to be the issue with this staff?

[chicanego]

The Recruiting Board has turned into the Football Board post 2013 when folks were critical of the head coach after dropping games to teams like Dook and Folden's ****** fckboys rushed to his aide to defend their man.

Anyone critical of Folden was castigated as a bleeding ****** for not having faith in the head coach, with folks citing the program's "improvement" during his tenure (lulz). Anyone with eyes and a brain could see the program had not improved, but people tend to get real triggered when the head coach is criticized.

The Bottom Line is that thus far this recruiting class is very disappointing. Even if we close with a combination of McFarland/Thomas/Herbert/Slaton/Smith (and anyone thinking we close with all of those recruits is a fcking moron), this is still not the type of class you would expect from a coach who should have the first year recruiting bump.

Particular positions, such as WR, have been a complete disaster. It's why we are considering transfers like Holmes, a dude who couldn't sniff the field for a shltty 4-8 team.

Blue chip recruits make a difference in the long run and there is no consolation prize for finishing second for kids, like Jeudy. Unless Richt somehow lands a few hail marys, the class is disappointing.

You're pretty much on the money. But if we close with all the guys you mentioned then this will be a helluva class. I doubt we land more than two of those kids though.

yeah finishing with a 5* Wr, and another wr ranked in the top 105 by every service easily makes this wr class very good. and adding herbert and slaton would make this an excellent ol class.
adding dean and mcfarland which are extremely likely also significantly improve this class.
all of these guys we are after a highly ranked, many of them higher rankedvthan the guys we currently have

Except landing Thomas, Smith, Herbert, and Slaton isn't going to happen. UM isn't going to land all 4 of those guys.

At this point, even landing 1 of them seems optimistic given where UM stands with each. McFarland and Dean are the two most likely to end up in this class and both, especially McFarland, are very good pickups.

But the big picture is that this class isn't up to par with what you would expect with a coach from the SEC who has traditionally landed very good recruiting classes. Combine that with what you expect from a first year bump and the fact we finished on a five-game winning streak and you start seeing the red flags. OP brought this up and has been blasted because people are hyper-sensitive toward the criticism of recruiting efforts of this staff. Acknowledging this class as disappointing isn't an incorrect assertion; people just need to take off the rose-colored glasses.

but you said even if we did get all of those guys this class would still be a dissapointment, and thats just not true.

A lot of our commits are confident we flip Paris Ford. Slaton isnt going to happen because for some reason he cant accept that hes an OL not a DT. But I think we have a very solid shot with Smith and Thomas at WR, and we are likely gunna get Pouncey

No I didn't. I said if we were to land a combination amongst that bunch it would still be disappointing and that anyone who thinks we land all of those recruits is a fcking idiot. At this point, McFarland seems like a pretty good bet. Everyone else seems unlikely. Things can change, but right now, UM is playing catch up.

OP with another L.

Please leave and don't come back until 02.02.2017. You don't have the intestinal fortitude to handle recruiting.

Who are we going to get between now and then?

Dean and possibly McFarland. That's it in terms of big time guys.

We're out on Slaton, Herbert and Harley. Smith is a hail mary. I'm not convinced we're really in it for Thomas. Henderson is gone. Edwards looks gone.

Not to mention DJ Johnson just got crystal balled to Washington.

Bruh, how many L's are you gonna take.

Why is everyone hating on OP?

Nobody can deny this recruiting cycle is a disappointment and similar to what we witnessed under Golden.

The Recruiting Board has turned into the Football Board post 2013 when folks were critical of the head coach after dropping games to teams like Dook and Folden's ****** fckboys rushed to his aide to defend their man.

Anyone critical of Folden was castigated as a bleeding ****** for not having faith in the head coach, with folks citing the program's "improvement" during his tenure (lulz).

I agree you do appear to be a bleeding ****** at this point.

He would answer some of the comments, but he is in a bunker right now waiting for the big meteor to hit earth.

Yeah anyone who knew that Golden was a failure after his first year was an idiot as you can't make a judgement on a coach after one year. Now if you didn't realize Golden was doomed when he wouldn't get rid of D'no after year 3 then you were just as big as idiot. What a dumbass post by chicanego . There is such as thing called reason. Acting like the recruiting class was doomed a few weeks ago was moronic and something only a newb or idiot would do . Never overreact . Get all the facts and then assess. **** there were people who thought Richt should be let go after the 4 losses in row . LOL Now if he has 4 losses in a row this year and especially in 2 seasons when we should be playing for the playoffs then that is different but you can't be reactionary .
