I agree in general but I can’t continue to bend the rule as it suits us. At some point we’re just taking mass L’s. And those schools are who we are competing with when we chose to go for these top recruits. If we’re not up for it then why are we doing this? We beat those schools for Samson, Bain and Mauigoa last year so it’s possible. We’re getting cucked this year. James Nesta and Gilmore both picked Oklahoma as well. It’s not just Bama and Ohio State.
But what I don't understand is.... at what point does a recruit realize this? like We are recruiting them and giving them the same info for months. Dawson has been here for awhile. No way Mitchell is just now realizing that he's not understanding how he will be used.
I don't know bro I just thought they broke down the year by year plans on how they were being used, or maybe the staff couldn't articulate it to them well enough to them like you said. Maybe with better offensive play this year it will be easier for WRs no matter how they articulate it
Right! No personal attack at him. I rock him with. I'm just not understanding the reason that was given.
That's exactly what I figure it is that things will be a lot more clear and easier to sell with good offense and points on the board this year
You’re potential time in purgatory is limited to 1-2 hour increments. Lol
Yea I know when put up a lot of points on the board this fall it will be a lot easier to explain and sell the offense
we can do better articulating and explaining. That's not a one off it's **** near consensus and there's only one or two common denominators. Im cautiously optimistic we are who we say we are on offense. Like others have said I can't remember a season that would have more impact on recruits thinking of coming here.
Okay. I can understand that to a degree. I can see how it definitely was a factor. I guess I just don't understand how a kid can know these things and still seriously consider us up until the last minute and then the blame goes on the staff for dropping the ball. It's really nothing more they could have done.
I mean only WRs, and 1 TE - which is a position we've been recruiting really well. Certainly not having that problem at RB or OLine. Oline the problem right now is nobody likely thinks they're getting any PT for 2+ years min. QB I fully think we're just locked in on getting a portal guy for next season.
Yea going against all these powerhouse teams no margin for error in recruiting especially with OU being the heavy favorite for months in the first place. this season could spring board us big time also we have exciting offense I believe that seals us a top 10 class for 2024 and then a top 3 class for 2025 with that momentum. Like it's wild how critical this season isAt this level as you well know it's slim margins. We aren't getting the benefit of the doubt and yes
Well you said offensive guys So I limited it to that purposefully lol
thanks for sharing the info brother as usual very much appreciated. Love that you never sugsr coat anything. Good or badAt this level as you well know it's slim margins. We aren't getting the benefit of the doubt and yes
Okay?
Well they got two 5star WR before Petrino too... And now have basically 2 more this class..
