Please oh please. We need some recruit to pull a Sam McLaurin tonight so I have something happy to read when I wake up.
Would like to "like" this 100 times. I'm a 50+ year fan myself.
Focused. He was apparently recruiting Arizona really hard towards the end of his tenure

I'd heavily doubt Ohio State would let a guy like Singleton slip away in their back yard. Hope I'm wrong but that's JMO.
Biggest thing for me still Rankin and Anderson. The in-state is always such an essential aspect. If you can go from never damn near never getting the top 10 to immediately getting arguably #1 and #2 (with an outside shot at Sutter).... can't draw it up any better!
We've got a big time recruiting staff that's 4-damn-sure.

quite the shock to the system when I find myself coming to the football threads in search of good news after a soul-crushing basketball game. What a turnaround.

yeah, landing Singleton would be epic (look at his top 5, sheesh). but our sell is pretty great (not including NIL, anyway) and Coach Parker is a flippin' dynamo dog. plus. he was at Toledo for a decent stint, where he developed CB1 (from Toledo!) in the 2024 draft. the prospect of earlier playing time may be key
Reminds me of something Sir Charles Barkley said a number of years ago...
How is it the best golfer (Tiger) in the world is black and the best rapper (Eminem) is white
I believe it ended with "and the tallest player in the NBA... is CHINESE!"

I remember Illinois getting a pretty good player from there about 15 years ago.

Based on photos floating around social media from recruits, head coaches are visiting in-homes as of (at least) this week.

Didn't see this coming at the outset of NIL
As of the 18th or 19th the NCAA sent out a memo that Head Coaches can't visit prospects in home right now.

With the right Pilot of course!So, they can just drop by their class and throw bags of money at them!
