    I know Bobby has kinda moved on from LeBlanc, but I sure would like to see him in O and B.

    I don’t see it happening. It seems like something soured between him and the staff. This is just speculation. But he went from being on campus every other day to overnight being all about OU

    I know, things seemed to cool abruptly. Could be the staff is moving on, it may not just be all about LeBlanc, but I don't want to speculate when I don't know. We all know that we need some studs on that D line, I sure hope we sign our share.

    Yes, that's the guy! But he doesn't realize that soon California will completely burn down. Besides, it's way too dry, you get chapped lips and Newsome is driving people out of the state in droves. Who wouldn't want the nice 100% humidity and glory of the Swamp in Hogtown? :eek::rolleyes:

    I was hoping for at least a nice visit!:(

    Go Gators.:)

    Maybe the coaches wanted to stay out of a bidding war. There might be three-technique DTs they like better without the sticker shock. If Kamran James commits, I'm totally over LeBlanc. The bigger need is one-technique tackles like Walker, Hall and Norman.

    This is the type of class that sets the foundation. I would love this class, keep this up as the norm but add a couple elite players next year and we are in business

    Yeah, no one really knows who is more correct on rankings. But…espn doesn’t even have a an actual recruiting team doing analysis while rivals, 247, and on3 do. I’m also pretty sure espn staff doesn’t attend camps anymore while the others do. Espn totally cut down their recruiting staff and footprint. It’s like PFF - outside of a few writers (not analysts), the analysts are some dudes right out of college reviewing ??? They don’t see the players in person. Most recruitniks out the least amount of faith in espn ratings since they are the least transparent p, updated infrequently, and purged much of their recruiting experts years ago in a cost saving move.

    not that I put trust in the transparency and biases of the other big 3 sites but they do put in the work that espn does not.

    He seems pretty locked in with Lincoln Riley.

    Patterson flipping to UCF? I’d hate to see one of ours flip but it is what it is. If Napier thought he was a take then he was good enough for me.

    At least the star average will be a tad higher for you star gazers.

    We all get to have our opinions just like those guys. We read what they write, we see the film and we’ve been watching games for years too. Was it Ej Manuel? I forget his name but I knew he sucked when Buffalo drafted him( my step dad is a rabid Bills fan and Gator season ticket holder). I saw him play our nfl secondary and he was exposed. I told him they are making a big mistake but what do I know, I don’t work for 247 as a professional.
