    Just whistling past the graveyard, huh? We have some elite prospects In this class (one less as of last night), but it’s going to be a small class with limited depth followed by a real transition class.
     

    If we had fired Herman this year, a new coach could’ve come in with a ton of talent and a senior Sam and won big right away with good depth in the roster for future years and cleaned up in 2021 recruiting. Instead, recruiting will be on a downward trend for a year, 2021 class will struggle, guys will hit the portal before a new HC comes in because Herman and Ash can’t keep a locker room together while losing, and we’ll be back in the cycle of new coach taking over a roster with some talent but a ton of holes.

    The new HC will be better off than CS or Herman were when they came in, but we needed to get out of this shitty cycle of having one or two good classes followed by transition classes that we’ve been in for almost a decade now. Firing Herman this year was the way out by keeping as much of the small 2020 class together as possible and then cleaning up in 2021, but we didn’t do it and now we’re one year behind the clusterfuck that is USC currently. Now our best hope is that we don’t keep Herman for two years as a dead man walking, like USC is.

    this isn't a transition class

    Exactly.. my message was for the ones that are comparing 2020 to a transition class.  This class could be better but it's not as tragic as some would make it seem like.  Tomorrow is NSD and unless some of y'all get your wet dream, we aren't getting 15 decommits by 6 am tomorrow morning.

    It’s almost like this announcement from Harrell was perfectly timed to help USC recruiting, also help his alma mater’s recruiting and fuck Texas’ recruiting.

     

    I mean,  who could have seen this coming?

    Harrell is a TCU alumni? lol

    Not if Del Conte goes anti-herman and has a plan in place that includes a splash hire for in place by December 1st. 

    If Dabo Swinney himself announced he would be the next Texas HC on December 1st, wouldn't mean a top 15 finish for 2021. Kids aren't just gonna flock to a coach despite his track record without having that relationship first.  But I hope Tom makes us look like idiots and gets us 10/11 wins next season..

    I was referring to the part about Jaylen Garth where it said he had a lower boy injury. But, your point stands. Given the shitshow that's been going on, it's amazing that we haven't had a mass exodus.

    Just being able to hold onto Bijan is a miracle itself.  I still do think QJ signs with us Wednesday. Sure Malcolm Kelly may be cool and all..however at the end of the day.. Why go to TCU where they had a legit top 5 WR and didn't do much for the guy.  Since Meacham left, they have struggled to put points on the board.

    He's supposed to be a pretty decent player, but he's also a legacy, so I'm sure that has a lot to do with it. His dad played with Dabo. 

    And Clemson told Flowe they are done at LB. 

    Flowe is a stud, but Clemson backup ain't exactly chopped liver either.  Guess this means Flowe to Oregon? USC is a complete clusterfuck

    Not when they’re contending  

    Even moreso.. I mean the coaches can't even do anything when satellite camps get cancelled because of LSU not wanting certain school in the area.. not knowing that they are effecting the second/third tier kids.

    I’m fine with it, since kids drop schools all of the time. I’d like for programs/coaches  to get blackballed from high schools if they pull that shit though, and some high school coaches will do that, but most won’t

    Yeah no Louisiana coach is gonna black ball LSU or he'll be out of a job by the end of the day

    You have got to stop with this bullshit about Anwar being a mouthpiece. He's a completely unconnected imbecile getting paid by another one.

    There will be flips if coordinators aren't named by NSD1. You're either being purposefully obtuse or willfully naive. 

    None of this shit matters. New coordinators will be named within the next few days, at the latest. 

    any hints on who it might potentially be?

    I'm sure Nebraska misses having a recruiting foot in Texas, but they claim to recruit nationally.

    I know Mizzou does.

    What hurts Nebraska is not being able to take in 5th grade reading level kids anymore and getting them qualified to enroll.  Mizzu still recruits the state.
