scUM loading up on all them 3*s early is an accomplishment? Look at the average croot ranking. OSU will pass them with several 4*s by the end of the week anyway. scUM will be happy to finish in the top 15.

@Sin Colieone u did it homie

Typical media. Kid might have told someone that in confidence, but it’s business. Make sense to deny everything as it would ruin his big announcement video. Breh I knew where he was heading but it’s fun watching people think otherwise

I'll be 100% real with you right now. Our recruiting infuriates me sometimes. I feel like we don't go after the Big Dogs nearly as much as we should/could. Our staff recruits for guys that can fit the system. Sometimes they're highly rated guys. Other times, they're 3 stars that get offered (or commit) before their senior seasons, and they ball out, and get a bump. Our staff can identify talent. Thats for sure. And we can develop it too.

Most of these 3 stars that we just got will end up being 4 stars. Just watch.

And it wasn't all 3 stars either. We got a couple of 4 stars this weekend also.

When Harbaugh lies and says he's going to throw more but just keeps running the ball and Nico wants to transfer back home

Yuppp, we've had quite a few 5* busts but we've players like Levi Wallace as well.

Every class has busts. But when you load up with higher level talent, that bust is replaced by another 4/5*. And I really hope people don't start bringing up a random 2/3* that made it to the league. There are about 32 5*s in every cycle, vs like 900 3*s, so yeah some 3*s will be all americans/all conference and get drafted and drafted high. But, a 5* talent is much more likely to pan out than a 3*. Go all the way back from 1991 to 2018, every national champion except for Auburn had top tier crooting talent across the board, and it took a generational QB like Cam to buck the trend.
