We had no chance with this cat, and now we do. but now its Golden's fault if we don't pull him? get outta here. dudes been committed for 2 years. You can't really blame anyone. I AM NOT TAKING UP FOR GOLDEN.

NOW, Dixon is a different story.

LIke I said if he signs with Florida no biggie....but if he signs with FSU?!! CMon bro...FSU wasnt even in conversation a few months ago

Maybe FSU having the best player in the country, have Freeman rolling and waxing teams including Clemson, Miami and UF - 3 of the other programs Cook has been interested in brought them into the conversation.

This is what I have been saying. I never felt like we had a chance with Cook other than to back door his commitment. But Dixon? I just don't see an excuse. Kid lives up the interstate and was here over ten times, multiple games, practices, and we were his outright leader for 6 months. He visits OSU one time randomly in October and wants to go there? Sorry, that's a fail on our part.

How is that a fail?

Yeah I'd like an explanation on how that's a fail too...
 
We forget very easily, but honestly am done doubting Golden on recruiting. Tracy Howard was al but a Gator and that was no secret, Stacy Coley was pretty much a Nole. Golden knows how to close when its time to close. The 6 situation was on that school and the people over there. I think we will get Cooke

It's a failure to close IMO. Hometown school. Stated as his leader since the summer. Visited multiple times. Came to multiple games. Favorable offense and scheme. Mother who wants him close to home. How is it not a fail? I understand you can't force any kid to go anywhere. It's their choice. But JDs recruitment is a failure by our program to seal the deal on a kid we had a lead with. It's not the first nor will it be the last time. Hopefully we can be the OSU in some of these other target's situations.

Let's not make Dwyer seem like a recruiting pipeline.
 
I remember when Collins chose arkansas over us, this board was epic.. Jan. 2 is going to be something else

I remember that day when Golden and Collins mom were one up'd by the kid's coach.

The kid trolled his ******* MOM and people want to blame our coaches.

I think the word "fail" gets thrown around too much. Like you said can't force a kid to go somewhere he doesn't want to, but the staff recruited the **** outta him not sure what else their suppose to do. A fail is not recruiting that South Carolina freshman last season.
 
"As for college, Yearby said he is all set to begin in Coral Gables on Jan. 8, four days after he graduates early from Central. Will Cook be going with him? Yearby said Saturday he believes so.

After having UM and LSU coaches, Fisher and Texas coach Mack Brown at his house this past week, Cook said he’s shutting the recruiting process down. He isn’t planning on taking any late college trips. Ultimately, he said, the relationships he has forged with the coaches recruiting him are playing the biggest factor in his final decision.

“Wherever I feel like it’s a family [that’s where I’m going],” Cook said. “I want to feel like I’m at Miami Central again.

“I told Joe we’ve got to do what we’ve got to do at the end of the day. We have to go make our situation better for our family at the end of the day."

We're ****ed. But at least Cook's grandmother will look nice on her new garnet and gold Hoveround.
 
Man, if he goes to FSU, those "I want to feel like I'm at Miami Central again." is gonna get referenced so many times in the future with Yearby and Darling going to Miami.

Dalvin Cook on decision coming down to relationships. "Whoever I feel like it's a family. I want to feel like I'm at Miami Central again."

DA FUGG? Man this kid trolling us or what? How the **** can he say something like and then turn around and pick FSU? I mean that statement right there almost SCREAMS UM. And yet I still feel its going to be FSU. I hope IM wrong, but if he picks FSU, this is the kind of comment that literally makes you want to put your head through a wall.

BINGO. Too many cats here dont know what the F*CK they are talking about. "Failure" as if the outcome is something that rests in the hands of the staff. At the end of the day, all the staff can do is do all it can to recruit the kid. A "Failure" in recruiting is ******** up the relationship with a kid, not evaluating him properly, not recruiting him, or getting on him too late. That is fair to blame the staff for "failing". But when you recruit the **** out of a kid, and do everything you can to get him, and he still choses to go somewhere else for whatever reason, that's just unfortunate, but not really a "failure" but the staff. Failure implies that somehow the end result is in your control. Once the staff has done everything it can to recruit a kid, the result is out of their hands.

How can you say we never had a chance with Cook? He's a local guy who loves his HS teammates, and three of those guys are coming here. His mom and dad want him here, and his brother goes here. Just because we haven't convinced him to come here yet doesn't mean we never had a chance.
