That’s one. Did you not read the post or the article? They have more seniors than any CFb team in the playoff and more 6 year players than anyone in CFb.

Doesn't matter. DeBoer can recruit the same players if he wanted to.

I don't need to read an article to know it's a veteran-laden team. It was built the same way any other program could build their roster.

Does that somehow make what happened to your team easier to digest? Maybe Alabama should throw more money at the problem.

Hmmm ... if only there was an entire supply again next year of older players -still with eligibility - that were only "Three Stars" but could play a year or two.

It would be like copying Stairway to Heaven in front of a packed house. Too easy.

The services aren't good at rating transfers or is that coach just great at finding gems that might not be big NFL prospects?


The services have no idea how to assess a player’s ability to know a playbook, watch film, make mature decisions on and off the field…. A 23 year old guy who is operating as a professional vs the 19 year old with a million dollars who is playing with toys and screwing randoms every night. The 19 year old might have better measurables as an athlete, but if the 23 year old is at least D1 athlete, he’s got a good shot at winning that matchup.

I can't be so old as to be the only one to remember Keith Lee at Memphis State.

I went to several games back in those Dana Kirk days.Not sure that he was much older than his peers ... if at all.

There were some epic Memphis State vs Louisville (Denny Crum and Pervis Ellison) games ... even after Finch took over. Elliott Perry, and Anfaree Hardaway, etc. (Treadwell boys.)

Those were good years for Metro basketball.

The irony calling someone a noob from historically one of the worst football programs in history.

Win a natty then talk. As of now all you have done is make the playoffs back to back years. Great accomplishment but you have to sustain success

So basically proving me right. You have a first round exit and have won your first playoff game in your schools history.
