The "insiders" at USC's 247 site are fricking terrible. This has gotta be the ninth or tenth time in 6 months they've called it for us and been wrong.

Well done, UK. Stoops has given y'all new life. And I can't hate on a kid for wanting to stay home and change things. If our big time players hadn't done that a few years ago we wouldn't be where we are today. Good luck.

I can't speak for the others they got wrong, but in this case I think Barker played things pretty close to the vest right up to the end. And you all had been recruiting him for quite some time. It wasn't a stretch to think Stoops and Co. wouldn't be able to make up the ground that Joker and Co. lost with Barker by not even giving him a look.

I think Chris Clark at Gamecockcentral.com (y'alls rivals.com affiliate) is one of the best in the business. Can't speak for the 24/7 site.

Appreciate the kind words though. Being from SC I completely see the paralells between our situation now, and where you all were a while back. Granted we are much worse than you all were when Spurrier took over, and it will take time, but the similarities are there.
