A few program thoughts and recruiting rants
1. there is no bigger public indictment on the ineptitude of the receiver postion than the Dazzler coming out today and saying Bordner is going to Wr/TE. give me a break. Evans, zoungrana? Miller(health), Crimmins, Grant, Matthews, Barksdale. Are we going to get nothing out of these guys? If Bordner gets some run ahead of these guys then that is a travesty. the staff must really like Bordner, becuase if he was not being brought back as a qb, I figured he would no longer be with the program.
2. For those who keep track, this is the first time that there will be more african american influx to the program than the anglo Saxans. I have 18 AA, and 12 AS this year. Looking back the past few years,2013 was 10/7 AS, 2012 was 9/7 AS, 2011 was 15/8 AS.
3. I thought this was a very good class, if evaluating soley by other offers. I posted a few days back that there appeared to be too many fliers given offers as the standard used, but was generally pleased. I will say this however, this class gets absolutely mauled by the 2011 class on paper. If the BC site is accurate here is a sampling of the 2011 class.
A. Abdesmad: Uconn and Baylor. Baylor is a legit offer, but not a big time list.
B. Borcich: FSU, Stanf, Uconn, MD, Rutg, Syr.: FSU and Stanford makes hima monster get.
C: Daniels: NCST, Tex AM, Louis, Pitt, WV, MN, KY: Very very close to a monster get. TexAM puts him in that category.
D. Duggan: Oregon, Mich, Wisc, NcSt, UVA, Vandy: Monster get.
E. Spiffy: WF, Mich, Neb, Okl, Stanf. Monster get. Didnt realize he was this highly recruited.
F. Gaughen: Wisconsin, Stanf, MD, SYR, NW, Ind: Close to monster get.
G. Keyes: Louis, Indiana, Ill: Very solid
H. Lifka: LSU, Uconn, Vandy, Ind, Duke, Minn, Miss St: 3 SEC offers puts him on the very high end.
I: ALJ: ND, PSU, Mia, Stanf, Uconn, Syr, Vandy, Md: Monster get.
J: Mihalik: Stanf, WV, Ariz, Duke, Kansas, Indiana, Louisvilel: Very Very high end.
K:Miller: Clemson, Miami, UNC, Mich, PSU, Stanf, Iowa, UVA: monster get.
L: Nelson: Louisville, Illinois, Ind, NW: Very solid: I give a lot of weight to Charlie Strong offers.
M:Suntrup: Stanf, Nebraska, Kans, Minnesota: Stanford and Nebraska QB offers make him elite.
N: Wujack: ND, MD, Pitt, Rutgers, MSU, Cinn, Minny,: Hate to say it, but ND offer makes him a monster get.
That is a whale of a class brought in by Spaz: If Dazz brings in a simailar classs next year I would not be dissapointed. And I am not a Sapz supporter.
One final random question. Do the majority of college football stadiums have all aluminum benches like BC. How much would it cost to put seats in: Would it affect the program in any way, would you go more often, would it look nicer to recruits?
