That doesn’t sound right. We have had lots of decommits, and not many great commits. What kids are you including in your analysis?

Pope and Wiggins will be third year kids next season. Harley a Sr. We do not have the speed we need to return to relevant nationally, and we are not restocking speed this cycle. As for getting kids faster, yawn. We don’t have magic pixie dust in our S&C program. Other major programs have...

We have 3 commits from Dade. That is not good enough.

You may be looking up still, and don’t see the sky falling. That’s because that isht fell 15 years ago, and is all around your feet, on the floor, in pieces. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news here. You may have thought this was still 2002. Anyhow, if you think we don’t need local kids...

At the moment, we appear to be his best offer, so I’d guess 50/50.

Payton doesn’t look ‘much faster than that’, imo. He’s not a sub-4.5 burner. More of a smooth kid with good change of direction. Prolly a 4.6 kid.

Basketball teams need tall guys for center, and football teams need fast guys for wr. It is simple and you are now just dumping on the kid to make yourself feel better about the decommit. He’s a talented, fast, local kid and we do not have enough talented kids, fast kids or local kids in this...

So your thesis is if he were slower, no one would care about his decommit. Okay, let’s try that elsewhere. If Rivers were smaller, no one would care about his being committed at OL. If TVD had a gimpy arm, no one would care that he was committed at QB. If Mamarelli were shorter, no one would...

Your confused. Saban and Kirby are way more involved in recruiting than Manny is, and understand it better, have more resources against it, expect more of their staff around it, and engage. As for personality, there are different ways to relate to kids and close them. Personality helps, but...

so you have blind hope. thats nice.

Why do you think that? It’s been said over and over for 17 years on these sites. And it has been wrong every time. Things are not fine, and they have not been fine. Thinking they will become fine is magical thinking unless you have legit reasons to think that.

Dee Wiggins has that size and speed. Not sure on vert.

Why am i not surprised that stubbefield is struggling as a recruiter?
