BigCity stopped posting on here because he got hired by Cignetti to evaluate
Or because I realized that no matter how many facts are provided this group will not agree because they don’t like what they say. I gave yall (espically juiceman) a break to regroup! And to get your foam blocks ready for round 2.

Farrell has developed very well and I'm in the camp he'll make another jump. Liked him a lot as a HS recruit and he's ready. White is going to be really good at NG. Like Brooks and they got a really good influx with this '26 class as well. That's a big part of me thinking if you only add Parker bros, Gray and Hastrop they're B1G contenders.
Guys been committed for like a whole day. This is why this thread needs me. To provide actual facts.

I saw that. I just threw the names out there but even if you get the Parkers (Visiting) and you get Gray and Hastrop (Both serious contenders out of HS), it holds the same.

Hastrop has top of the draft type measurables at EDGE. With this staff the sky is the limit. Gray has similar potential on the line (1st/early round) and is from STL. That makes them a contender as well when you add them with who they have.
Agree Haastrop would be a good get just based on potential, he's had zero production in college so far, so he would fit right in with our current DL!

Gray committed to ND out of the portal already so scratch him off your list too

They were true freshmen last year and he just started playing football not too long ago I believe. You can't teach 6'4, 250+ with 10.7 speed.

Man, I might be new here, but you got these fellas in the blender. Whatever you posted previously got to a lot of people on here and had them all riled up. I for one love some good debate so keep it coming. I was impressed with your breakdown of the CFP rosters, i assumed that those teams relied a bit more on lower level players than they do. Illinois was not far off though which was encouraging.

welcome! and stick around for a few years, it becomes clearer what individuals bring to the mix (thats not directed toward bigcity, more an observation that the same themes come up year after year)

but its a super fun group of passionate fans and Dan is the best!!!!

The "facts" bigcity provided this board:

1. Tyler Underwood is not a talented coach.
2. Brad Underwood is a B coach.
3. The B1G is a midtier basketball conference.
4. Houser is a really good player. Until he committed, then he wasn't.
5. Incoming G5 transfer stats don't count. Outgoing G5 transfer stats count a lot.

Excited for more.

Thanks, I needed it so I could try and find one of these "facts" you speak of. No luck yet but the search continues!
