Let's take a closer look at the 2007-2011 classes
What's your point, that the 2012 class has yet to have a player drafted? As you note, that will change this year, so what's the point of the closer look?

I'd like to see players get drafted, but more important to me are wins and the 2012 class had a higher winning percentage against much better SEC competition.

2007 #42 2 33-31 51.6%
2008 #16 2 37-27 57.8%
2009 #25 3 42-23 64.6%
2010 #19 5 44-21 67.7%
2011 #34 2 43-22 66.2%
2012 #__ 0 36-16 69.2%

Again not sure why any of this matters. I think Chill was just reminding us that we had some bad recruiting years before Sumlin and despite things trending down at the moment for this year's class, overall recruiting has been better. By no means am I happy or satisfied, but I can't deny things are better.

I remember back when we were off to a good start for 2016 with Greg Little
We actually started with Patrick Hudson. Greg Little committed nearly 3 months later (4 days after Hudson decommitted). Regardless, point well taken. How they start doesn't mean anything, it's how they finish. That said, Martell is a vocal leader who is actively recruiting, which could not be said of Hudson or Little.

Jackson's flip quote is interesting: "I needed somewhere where I could not only play football but be a better student and I think OU is it." Curious why he he even brought up being a better a student, but since he did, why does he think OU is the place?

It's him hiding behind an imaginary reasons for OU- if he claims it's because of academics he is very misinformed or being disingenuous. I know for a fact I could have gotten the same degree I did at ou as I did at a&m while taking every test drunk.

Huurrrrr duuurrrr most national merits- sorry meth gumps, y'all are an embarrassment to the country.

It's easier to be a better student at a lesser quality school.

Added Niederhofer and removed Jackson. Still sitting at 79 total scholarship players with room for 6 more. Ags still have a shot to close out with a solid class with these targets still on the board.

RB D'Vaughn Pennamon
WR Quartney Davis
WR Jack Jones
DT Chris Daniels
DT T.D. Moton (late qualifier)
LB Aaron Hansford
S Cameron Lewis
S Brandon Jones

Not sure how many, if any, we actually land. But getting 3 or 4 would definitely work and give us room to do some late JUCO evals.

If he announces bama, I am over this crap. Let's just get Wednesday over with. Move on to the offseason and see if we can't score some points and build momentum for Tate's class.

It was Bero88, and it was just a thread saying the sips where going to get some players, nothing specific, and he even said himself that he was going off what Chip Brown and Westcott were saying.
