Thanks for that info. Especially when guys get injured and there's less to evaluate. A new staff needs a highlight film readily available and the ability to evaluate quickly.Schlager had some hip problems, kept him out of much of the season. His brother is starting safety at CSU, i think he would be a hard flip (unless some kind of coaching change?).
No problem... and the negative or sad thing is I made this post thinking a coaching change was imminent and that we will lose most of our class. While it will hurt in the short term, long term a smaller class and the new staff getting guys who committed to them will be the most beneficial.Well, this is one of the better threads I've had the pleasure of reading on here the past so many days or weeks, even if it just speculation. It would be nice if we show up the final two weeks of the season and whether or not we win, as long as we don't get that Minnesota style beat down, perhaps we can retain our top recruits that haven't bolted yet.
I wouldn't go that far, as we are really young so we have some experience coming back. Also in 2015, Riley was able to bring in Jalin Barnett and Dedrick Young, two highly ranked guys. You also might be able to bring some other recruits that were looking at whoever the coach is at his previous school. UCF has a couple highly ranked defenders committed, but their class isn't spectacular. Missouri still has their top 3 prospects uncommitted, we could flip the top ranked guy in Kansas as he's committed to North Carolina, Iowa's best player is uncommitted. There's a lot of ground to make up but it's possible to still pull out a top 35 class. We just are going to have low numbers for now.
lol right... like when Phil Steele states it as a positive when an 0-12 team has a ton of starters returning. New coach needs to set the tone right away, you don't like the way we do things and are satisfied complaining and going .500???The old, the good news is we have a lot of guys coming back. The bad news is we have a lot of guys coming back, thing.
I used to kid my Oklahoma State brother about that. Years ago.
I know nothing, but I'd be shocked if Rileys last talk with the team didn't include "Bill Moos is a good man, give the next staff your best effort, and you have some of the best fans/facilities right here."Does anyone have a feel for the team Chemistry and will that be a factor for the new coach like is was when Bo left?
TN had 4 guys decommit shortly after Butch Jones was fired. I expect something similar for us. We just have to hope the new coach can either the current class. Or pick up other players that help.
Committed to UNC at the moment.Jake ruder?
Norton is 10 minutes from NE. I've heard he's a big Nu fan with big time offers
I say this half in jest... so these 4 guys were committed to an absolute dumpster fire, but now that Tennessee has some hope for the future they decide to decommit.
I think he would be one of Frost's first calls honestly.Jake ruder?
