Davon Mitchell 5* TE from Los Alamitos, CA Hits the Portal after Reclassifiying

Mario signed 14 top 250 players last season. He has 3 right now. He’s likely trending to land 7-8 this class if we are being realistic given the board. All the ‘non-mopes’ keep saying they don’t worry about Mario recruiting with a U logo on his chest - well potentially landing half the amount of top 250 is cause for concern lol

Maybe we win 9 games and none of this matters but for now overall outside of this TE, you have to be a bit concerned

I got you, and I’m not ragging on you in particular. I’m antsy for this wheel to get going and for us to experience something remotely similar to last year where we string some program-changing commits together. No offense to the kids currently committed, but maybe 3-4 of them provide instant-impact material. A fair amount have great tools or potential, but that doesn’t equate to more wins in the next year or two…which is what we ultimately need.

As we saw with last year’s team, we need WAYYYY more of those kids. We got a lot in ‘23 through the portal and high school, but we need to continue stacking talent if we want to be somewhat relevant again on the national landscape.

I know. I got ****ed about the Scott ordeal hearing from multiple “insiders” for weeks Miami feels good about him and then he commits to Osu but it’s whatever. Then hearing nonsense on how good of a June Miami was going to have. Hard to pull a kid from Chicago when you have teams like Osu, ND, Michigan to deal with in that area.

Yeah it’s going to be really interesting to see how this new stadium thing plays out. St. Pete put a good pitch out there but moving it over by Ybor would help so many more ppl. Problem by Ybor is traffic getting in and out of there.

A few places like Fergs would go under if they moved but I don’t think it changes much of the financial impact for the area sense they don’t draw big crowds anyways.

The move that makes the most sense is to move them to Tampa.

Best spot is where the Yankees training facilities are at next to Raymond James. Parking would already be situated but the Yankees will never let that happen

This is a great point. I’m working on a project right now that’s shows how our position rooms stack up to championship and top 10 teams. As it stands, our class neither raises our ceiling or our floor. Way too many developmental players and projections, especially at QB and DB, where we need dudes to be able to contribute sooner. We are going to have to really rely on the portal and hit at a higher clip if we do not turn it around

This is why I love CIS. Phenomenal combo of satire, good info and posters that conduct detailed analytical work or comparisons for the rest of us college maniacs to read and decipher.

I look forward to it, sounds pretty intriguing.

Stat still holds. Believe what you want. There are always outliers.

bad comparison year, some of those kids Mario was on at oregon. Now it’s true up to true up

This isn't really true. Only one who had an Oregon offer from Mario's time there was Ray Ray.
