We can sell a bunch of 10 win seasons recently. 4 division titles in the past decade. Tons of first round picks.


When you sit with a prospect:

How do we flip the 10+ win and division title narrative for a supreme strength for us? No marquee out of conference match ups/win in those totals and the last 2 division titles resulted in the 2nd place west team receiving the larger stage and payday?

The best thing we can do in the interim is to get that South EZ complex finished. We need football only facilities and one of those shiny locker rooms. That would help.


I agree with this. We need to sell "swag" in whatever form or fashion that is. It is one way Ole Miss is attracting talent (obviously they have others) and it was also how Vanderbilt under Franklin was able to breakthrough with top 25 class before he left.

Anyway, don't want folks to think I'm being super negative. It just sucks listening to my coworkers next to me, who range from OSU to Clemson grads, get that exposure on a national level. It definitely sways opinion.

If so, it's all his fault then. He's had all this time to get his grades up. Wouldn't think classes at Hinds would be that difficult to pass.

I went to a JUCO for 2 years. I understand that everyone learns differently but JUCO is designed to help kids that may struggle in the classroom to get a college education. It is very telling if you struggle at a JUCO.

Why was Camp so enamored with Pittsburgh?


He ran out of choices.

He committed to USCw in May but became a soft verbal when Sarkazian was fired. Then stating he would take 5 OVs. That's when Pitt offered.

When Wilson got sacked at USCw, Camp decommitted. He was basically following Wilson. All the stars had aligned for him to come here, until Wilson fvcked that up.

His only Plan Bs were Pitt and Michigan. Michigan probably looked like another possible trap door floor, leaving Pitt as his last alternative.

Just remember, Michigan was #40 last year. Plus 2016 talent is way down, so if there was gonna be a crap year, this was the year to do it. This staff will kill it in 2017.

Easy. I'm in sales. When pitching my product I certainly don't spend much (if any) time talking about the negatives. Accentuate the positives and make sure they know why they are important to them.

Again though, we have several hurdles to jump before we even get to any of that.

Camp would have chosen us if DL coach hadnt bolted like a dickhead last week. Camp didnt OV as a result last weekend. Even if he did talk to Schipp this week, would you pick a school you've never visited?

Can someone explain how Jerrion Nelson went to Iowa State? Did he want a new experience outside of COMO?

He sure would have looked good wearing black and gold. Oh well, have fun getting rolled by Florida St., North Carolina, and Clemson next year.

Collins and Strong are JUCO so they won't necessarily sign today. Terry is cause for concern.
