February 3, 200917 yr I thought I heard on the radio the other day that UC's class that took them to the Orange Bowl this past season was ranked "third-to-last" among all BCS schools back when they were recruited. Can someone (GT - hint, hint) verify if this is correct? That is correct...
February 3, 200917 yr ^ Thanks. That fact alone might give folks pause when considering the reliability of these sources when it comes to football.
February 3, 200917 yr I don't think Scout, Rivals, or Billy Bob have a clue about players. It is all based on word of mouth. There is no way that the get a chance to see every kid play across the country. I have seen to many 5 stars that spend four years in college and don't live up to 5 star. I have also seen walk-ons that end up being All- Conference. Alot more 5 star players are all conference than walk-ons. While it is not a full proof rating system it still is a measuring stick and pretty accurate for the most part.
February 3, 200917 yr Gametime, I saw your avatar in a magazine yesterday. I thought the article was about you at first. The vols back in the 80s/90s were always in the top 5 almost every year. nd same thing.
February 3, 200917 yr Haven't been over there today, thanks for the info. These next days are fun and we are hoping that the best RB in the south/East/midwest stays true to us. The Gators are making a huge push. He is from Florida and would probaby start for us this season. I think he will keep his word, can't wait for it to be official tomorrow.
February 4, 200917 yr ^^^^I'll be on ESPNU all day, I'll post some names when I get them. Larry, how confident are Bama fans that Richardson commits to Bama?
February 4, 200917 yr Scared to death. But like I said earlier he will start for us after Coffee left. He also had commited real early for this type of prospect and the coach that recruited him went to the vols.

February 5, 200917 yr He signed!!!!!!! We have a pretty nice group, lost a couple outstanding kids but we are real happy with the kids we got. A lot of kids thanked/mentioned Jesus and one kid (QB) drove to another state to stand up with a prospect. I see maybe 4 freshmen starting next year if they work hard. We lost one DB on defense and a perfect guy taking his place. Two RBs are about equal replacing a player who went early to the pros. A huge left OT replacing Andre Smith. Two wideouts to help Julio. People I can't wait, but I will. :jump:
