Not 1

Not 1 but 4.....nice article very informative. I think we need to get these guys going so they can make contributions immediately. Play the kids, welcome young men!

Would you rather have a top 5 recruiting class or a top 15 recruiting class (and why)?

Posted by: nemo2002 | February 02, 2017 at 03:20 PM

You don't get it!

Nobody's goal is to try to finish 15th instead of 5th...but if you like the class you got and fulfilled your needs with the players you wanted...why be mad about finishing 15th? Take Jerry Jeudy and Jeff Thomas...ranked #1 and #8 respectively...Give me Jeff Thomas all day and twice on Saturday!

Bama's class might not work at UM and vice versa! Does this class fit us? YES! I don't care what the rank is!

Go Canes!

It's a dang good glass. No two ways about it and a guy like Thomas should have been a five star and a guy like Garvin should have been a high four star. But that's rankings, sometimes there more accurate then others. I think we were only two players away from an elite class in McFarland and Henderson. And one of those guys away from being a top ten class as we were only two points away from number ten. But hey we finished at number 12 per ESPN and we can make those two misses right next year by getting the DBs we're expected to get and getting lingard who from a few people I know that have talked to him loves the Canes. Either way we filled our needs with top/elite talent which a lot of them will be playing on Sundays in the future.

Here is a simple question for the "star naysayers" (and anyone else who wants to render an informed opinion):

Would you rather have a top 5 recruiting class or a top 15 recruiting class (and why)?

Stars matter. A lot. But here's an answer to a slightly different question .

I'd rather have elite coaching with #15 class, then Shitty coaching with #5 class.

Good info Soup.thanks

And when you get a top 5 class AND elite coaching then you get Bama.

FIFY

From CIS poster:

"You want another back story you can call me whatever over & critique I'll give you two that you can verify however you feel. Your own sources or Pete or whomever can find out the same if they research it. #1, the reason Henderson didn't come here is because of last weekend. The long story starts at the all star game in Orlando. Henderson found out he wasn't starting, & took his pads off & walked off. Refused to be a back up. When Rumph & Diaz found out about it, Rumph called Him up & snapped on Him. Told Him that's not what Canes do. We don't need kids like that. Henderson as a result got in his feelings & didn't show up Sunday night like he was supposed to. Because of that, & him doing what he did at the all star game, we stopped all communication with him. Since then Bandy has tried to play peacemaker between the staff & Him, but the staff had no interest.

#2, Rumph found out as of late Monday night Jhavonte Dean was a silent to us & to ASU. He seemed to be leaning in that direction. A big part in His recruitment here was Adrian Colbert. So we had Adrian call & Dean admitted he was a silent to both of us & didn't know what to do. Adrian had a friend & teammate from Texas who transferred to ASU so he put them in touch. After speaking to buddy from ASU he told them how ASU treated there players like **** & lied about most things from when he was being recruited. After that call, He told ASU he was gonna be a Cane. That was Tuesday afternoon before he decided. Devonta I still don't know 100% what happened. All I know is Monday at around 2am I got a call from a particular coach saying this mother ****er. On top of that he told us he'd be going to lsu. Feel free to blame me for that, but He's been a silent to us since Paradise...& I can show that on a screen shot supported by a pic of all of us at Prime 112 from back in July when we were celebrating him & another kid who didn't end up coming. Fml"

Wow looks like some of the most inside info I've seen since the days of the Truth and later Skreet

He became a dad this past year. Wasn't wild about BK - thought his reads were bad. Says our D is "going to be nasty for a few". Likes CMR as head coach so far.

CGNC

@86 - he also likes the "way Weldon tosses the rock

I didn't care about rankings last season when the Canes 2016 recruiting class was ranked around #20, and I don't care if the Canes 2017 class is ranked #12. These are some good players and they are future stars.

This coaching staff will develop a few more freshmen stars and future NFL players from this class. The quality of players in the 2017 class is as good as last year's recruiting class, but there are more players. At least three recruits will compete for starting roles and many will see the field

Terrance Sullivan

Big Windy once again bringing great perspective and knowledge. I love it. CGNC how is it going lady.

CoCane

Look at how star gazing blinds the mind.

"The Bottom" produces so much talent, there are quite a few 3* that are really 4 and 5* players. If Richt and his staff have a keen eye for talent, the rankings won't matter. Our 3* will shine on those 5* that everyone slobbers over. Just chill...

The truth will be revealed

Take that Nemo and stick it where the sun don't shine! 😂😂😂

Long as we continue to recruit South FL we'll compete with anybody!

TonyCane

Is there even anyone that can be considered a project in this class? Quality, not quantity.

Reminds me of this one time on a flight into Tampa...

Go Canes!

If there's one situation in life where quantity is never better than quality, it's when you have a woman on your arm.

When it comes to that 5 + 5 ain't ever 10.

CoCane

I would rather have a dime on each arm. 20 cents Biatch!

Posted by: CoCane | February 02, 2017 at 11:25 PM

I get "The Truth".

I also would have like to get RB McFarland and CB Henderson.

But as The Stones sang: "U can't always get what U want!"

CoCane

Missing out on a local player is different. Those hurt. I'm talkin about a South Florida or upstate 3* vs 4 and 5* from other places. Our 4 and 5* combined with our underrated 3* is as or more talented then a recruiting class stacked with 4 and 5* from out of state. If we're ranked 12 by Espn, guys like Derrick Smith, John Ford etc makes our class easily better than most of the top 10. F*ck a ranking...


Go Canes!

Forget the NCAA, Briles needs to be in jail. These are in addition to the dozens of rapes he helped cover up:
