Anybody watching the IMG-Grayson game?
I have it recording, but haven't started it yet.

I didn't realize it was on. I'm watching it now. Do you want the score or anything?

Other than the screen play TD against LSU to get the win in '12, I don't think TJ had a game in which he positively impacted the game. He looked like a stud vs. UM in Jerryworld, though.

Without giving any spoilers, I can't quite understand, with all those "all-stars" they recruited, why IMG doesn't seem to have a true running game.......

More importantly, what do you want to trade for Samuels

As I mentioned as a strong possibility weeks ago, Joshua Mcmillon is apparently transferring. Pruitt didn't see a future of any PT for him. I wish him well wherever he winds up! Might could be a solid downhill LB/DE at a smaller program.

On deck... Johnny Dwight.

shite, forgot about that. Has everyone picked up their teams? Been waiting to pick up folks, don't wanna accidentally snag someone's draft pick.
$10 right? I'll see if I can find the paypal addy in the chat.

McMillon's size was just too heavy with what Bama is moving towards(and I'm glad). Struggled to keep his weight down his senior year, and analyst noticed it in his performance at camps. Shaun Dion Hamilton had a similar problem, but he actually got himself in check. Then there's AHS' top notch staff telling Reuben to gain weight his senior year 
Kinda shocked Dwight never amounted to much, though the switch to TE didn't help. He was getting the talk Byers gets now, people were calling him a Dareus clone...

RE: McMillon
That kinda further confirms how out of touch these so-called beat writers are becoming. Just a few reports ago, one of those guys was raving about how Josh was looking in drills.
Reminds me of the articles over the summer about Mo Smith and Kendall Sheffield stepping into bigger roles this season. Pruitt aint wasting no time.

Two more Kirby evals. He's a terrible talent evaluator.
I've been out of pocket all day, but did I see a couple pages back someone suggesting something like maybe we should only sign 3 DL to get our numbers to work out? Is this person crazy? Does he think we should run a 2-5 base defense in 2018? We need DL NUMBERS (And Dwight can't play dead in a "B" Western, so not really referring to him) at the DL position BADLY.We flubbed the dub recruiting DL last year (quantity-wise. Most certainly not quality-wise), and really need to make up for it in this class and next year's class.

Will get mine to you before the weekends out.

Not defending the evals or anything, but I think we were on the right guys last season but just got outworked (or whatever u want to call it).
Rashan Gary, Dexter/Rashard Lawrence, and Derrick Brown immediately come to mind. Then there are guys like Jeff Simmons (possibly a lucky miss) and Marlon Davidson that would have likely been DE's that basically had Bama at #2 on signing day.
Honestly, it doesn't feel better this season as there are fewer top quality DL prospects and we are facing similar issues with the top targets (battle with Mississippi school on Marvin Wilson), battle with home state schools (Georgia and LA targets), and qualification concerns (Akial Byers).

D Lawrence was not going far from him and his mother controlled that recruitment.
Gary never really felt like we were in it. To many connections to UM with a former HS coach on the UM staff in charge of recruiting that area and two other UM players from the same HS.
R Lawrence not sure what happened here. He may be the one we actually got out worked. Never thought we had a legit shot with Brown either and not sure how much we put into recruiting him.
But yes these were the type of guys we need to be going after.

And we essentially passed over Kongbo for King.

Anyone want to read a 10 page thread with L5U fans trying to convince themselves that Moses is a great player?

But hey, he did have a good "sideline pop" tackle!!!!!?!
