if OSU is involved with the recruit, pack it up and head home. That way there is nothing to be lost or be negative about. Same rule applies if Alabama is involved.

Luke Kennard and Devin Booker most heavily, because he was in on both long before they blew up into Duke/Kentucky recruits. Mitch McGary came before the final four, obviously. Jaylen Brown and Mo Bamba more recently, because they initiated contact late in the process. Also they were the types not to be locks for Duke or Kentucky.
I don't really see him doing anything differently, except being willing to overrecruit by one to allow for attrition.

Can’t wait for the Sam Webb spin zone on this if Friday does end up at OSU.
Couldn't blame him. I wouldn't want to play for a mid tier BIG team either if I had offers from every school.
Otis Reese and J. Patterson will soon choose other schools as well. But hey, we will get our 7th 3* CB! He's 6'2!

Sometimes my "inner Maizen" needs to be unleashed, bro.
January 10th, 2018 at 12:52 PM ^
Thats very true, we all have inner Maizen. I unleash mine alone in a cold dark room
January 10th, 2018 at 12:59 PM ^
Dude, no one cares about how you jerk off.

Double post.

We can't always post how happy we are. We are human. Our structure has it that emotions are like the wild ride of a roller coaster.
January 10th, 2018 at 1:40 PM ^
with the two replies above yours.
January 10th, 2018 at 2:49 PM ^
Let it out. I warned people about this class for months.

Albeit not eloquent, I think he's summarizing and expressing the frustrations many on this board have about this year's recruitment.
I hope that whoever is hired for the new coaching positions, they bring a solid recruiting network with them.
January 10th, 2018 at 2:22 PM ^
We used the bad 2018 recruiting coaches. Not sure where we found the good 2016-2017 and 2019 recruiting coaches, but hopefully they stick around.
Hopefully your Eyore oulook will get to Rumler and Hinton and they leave to so you can be right.
January 10th, 2018 at 3:12 PM ^
Cool. So 4% of the players in our '18 and '19 classes are considered elite. That should cut it.
January 10th, 2018 at 3:27 PM ^
telling the truth unfortunately
January 10th, 2018 at 4:27 PM ^
I always do.

January 10th, 2018 at 12:51 PM ^
Meh.
There will always be 3 stars who become first round picks and 5 stars who become busts and end their careers at Central Michigan.
But recruiting does matter. The best coaching isn't going to solve every physical shortcoming. You can't give Michelangelo a truck full of horse manure and expect the David.

Because you named a couple outliers. Outliers prove the rule. To be an elite team year in and year out you must recruit at a high level. PERIOD. There is no legitimate debate on that, especially if you read the many studies on this issue.

Same as the 4 & 5 star recruits from the same classes?
January 10th, 2018 at 1:46 PM ^
January 10th, 2018 at 12:48 PM ^
This will not clam the 3* haters.
Hudson and Higdon are studs.
Perry, Metellus, McKeon are almost begging for someone to replace them.
January 10th, 2018 at 1:08 PM ^
McKeon is good at catching and blocking, and was the leading receiver (low bar, yes). He's not Tyler Eifert, but I look forward to his play next year. I think Metallus will have a battle on his hands, but as a junior probably has a good shot at being better than his mostly okay play this year.
Replacing these guys with 5* wouldn't change this year into a championship year anyway. This year was about OL and QB and QB and QB.
EDIT: Losing Friday would feel like shit. Losing him to OH would feel like eating shit (one imagines).
January 10th, 2018 at 1:50 PM ^
January 10th, 2018 at 5:44 PM ^
was a 2*
January 10th, 2018 at 5:47 PM ^
lead the team in targets by a lot I believe. His hands are fine. I would like to see Banks play more than him.

Only one of those gentlemen are a Harbaugh recruit, and he was a transition class recruit.
January 10th, 2018 at 3:10 PM ^
Elysee Mbem-Bosse
Kingston Davis
Dytarious Johnson
January 10th, 2018 at 4:21 PM ^
One of those guys never made it to campus so he didn't effect scholarships... And he is hitting those 3 stars at a better rate than Hoke hit 5 stars. You need three stars to fill in a class, this class has more 3 stars than I would like, but at the rate Harbaugh picks good ones, the amount of talent in this class will be better than any non-Harbaugh class since, 2002?
January 10th, 2018 at 7:59 PM ^
