1999 Era Recruiting vs Today (Derailed Maason Smith thread)

I wish we had the money to afford this kid...

His top 2 as of now are LSU & UGA, but both of their DL's are *** this year & they wouldn't use him right IMO.

He would fit perfectly in our scheme & could definitely play as a TF just based off his size, quickness & natural strength, Coach Stroud would turn this kid into a monster.

It's unfair how the SEC just gets to hoard all these uber talented kids, he'd be a Superstar at Miami...
Sigh.

Hoarding is such an appropriate word. Three recruiting rules of today that four or five stars must get significant playing time doesn’t apply to the $EC especially Baga and UGA.

I think Jobe rode the pine for at least a year where he would’ve started for us from jump.

These guys have four and five stars on the bench that would start for us right now and they may have had a better career had they got playing time early.

The hoarding benefits teams like Baga twofold: 1) they have incredible depth where injuries don’t affect them and 2) they prevent teams like us from acquiring talented players which gives them a better chance at beating us whenever we do play and prevents us from establishing a rep of producing high draft picks which will help us land future five stars (see UF and the DBU nonsense helping them get Marshall).

Players like Jeudy were going to be first round draft picks regardless of the team assuming no injuries but of course Bama gets all the credit.

It was.

If visits were allowed we might have a better chance than expected, because this kid absolutely loves South Beach lol, he raves about it every time he's asked about Miami, it's like the first thing that comes out of his mouth lol.

Maybe we can convince him to come on his "own dime" & have one of our recruits organize a big get together for the 21 class like Oklahoma, Auburn, UGA & LSU have all done already...

It's a pipe dream, but shìt man, if we mess around & keep having a good season we gotta capitalize off it somehow.

Not being able to bring him down for OV really hurts us. Yea we don’t have the booster support to have these kids visit on there “own dime”. He would be a stud in our scheme, he’s going to waste his time at LSU as long as Pelini is there.

Maybe we could set up a Go Fund Me for a “sick relative” of his and get him the money to “ visit” said relative.

of course when he got here he’d have some free time while Drs were with this “ sick relative” and He could get together with some “ friends” to visit South Beach for some late dinner..

Could say that his hoopty ride is breaking down and the only place that has the exact part needed is The Collection down in CG. Could take awhile to fix, and he'll have to drive one of their loaners in the meantime
 
It’s not Cane slides.... but it’s something lol
