No one has ever shown where we backed off Cam.

We didn't back off Kamara when we had three other backs committed, why would we back off Cam?

He pussed out

No. He didn't.

He saw how far up Harris' arse our staff was. After today I'd say their judgement was misguided. Najee was running behind the two best O-Linemen in the country and averaged 2.2 ypc.

Other than retaining our streak of #1 recruiting classes I could give a rats arse about Najee Harris. I think he'll be a bust in college.

Maybe you guys should give CNS and his staff a clinic on how to recruit better.

Najee himself has said he has barely met with Saban. Tosh wasn't out there that much. Hell, Harbaugh spent more time than our staff it seems

Then where is this confidence that we keep him coming from?

I don't have any confidence.

I just also didn't have any in Cam. He would've flipped. He has bitch in his blood. If he's scared of Najee, he would've been scared of Bo, Dame, Josh and BJ.

Tallahassee has a nice,empty spot where he can run for Orange bowl glory

Call me a critic of California athletes if you will, but I haven't been too impressed with Harris and I sure as frick wasn't impressed with Blake Barnett (I made that pretty goddamned clear two years ago too).

No one is saying Cam was scared of Najee. I'm saying he saw how enamored our staff was with Harris that he felt he wouldn't get a fair shake.

He committed after Najee. If he was scared of him, why would he have done that?

But we aren't holding Harris to that same standard. He's milking this shite so hard our nipples hurt.

Cam Akers has been a Florida State commit for 2 fricking weeks and he's so solid the analysts didn't even ask him about it this week in San Antonio.

Our 2 year commit can't even tell someone where he is going tomorrow.

We fricked up by putting our eggs in the wrong basket. If our staff had shown Akers half the love they've shown Harris we'd have the #1 running back in the country in the fold and the #2 guy would be flip flopping between two irrelevant schools.

I disagree. Akers was always going to flip.

If Najee flips, frick him. But as of now, he hasn't wavered. He just isn't speaking. And he doesn't have to. He doesn't owe 247 or twitter or any of us an explanation. If our staff and his teammates know he's solid, then who cares if motherfrickers on a message board are having to take a Tums.

Cam wavered. Najee hasn't, yet

Yet you don't know if Akers would have flipped if our staff hadn't kissed Harris' arse (which they seemingly continue to do).

And Najee hasn't wavered?

He's been committed for 2 years and he states today that he doesn't know what he's gonna do?

You've said yourself he was gone. Now he hasn't wavered?

I play the pessimist card at every angle. It's my thing.

He didn't decommit. He just isn't speaking. He's asked to be left alone. They won't. So he's just letting it float. He definitely knows where he's going and doesn't owe a sports writer a story. If he shows up, then he didn't waiver.

The us kissing his arse is speculation. No one knows our staffs energy expenditure per recruit, so that's a pointless argument.

You think we curved Cam. I think he's a titty baby.

Except Najee has spoken. Multiple times this week. He says he is undecided. That is the definition of wavering when one is currently committed to a school.

He's still committed. He's never mentioned Michigan. He just said he'll show up at a school and enroll

Like I said, for our recruiting rankings I hope he sticks. As for on the field play I think he'll underperformed mightily.

Time will tell.

So far I'm 1-0 on these debates with you. Excited about our rematch

I'd venture to say Kenny Bell was a stud when we needed him to be even though I don't remember advocating on his behalf. Can you link my optimistic view on Bell?
