    Section14FS is now the voice of reason? Now I've heard it all...

    Truly. During the great CCCP purge - he was calling out the Lemon Party Trio on their double-standards several times daily.

    Rumor has it... he received a TO shortly after the Hawaii game. No warning either.

    This would be a good one for Dickus. Bleenor is simultaneously fluffing Sark and saying Pete has a rebuilding job ahead of him.

    Is there nobody there pointing out that obvious contradiction? I'm not sure if Bleenor is that stupid or just realizes that his target audience is stupid enough to let that slide.

    Abundance?

    Bleenor is one of the main reasons i left dm.c. Toward the end of bball season he came on to explain how romar needed an extension to his contract. Even with all the 4 and 5 star recruits, lack of ncaa births, and all the other things going on with the program he should receive an extension. I mention this only b/c I challenged him specifically on that he woudln't treat a football coach in that manner. IF, a football coached missed the post season 3+ years running, nobody would be clamoring for an extension. Now, we have a coach who has a proven record of winning, developing players, getting them to the nfl, and oh yeah, fucking winning and people continue to cry.

    Stars matter in some sense. Of course they do. The most talent typically will compete. That being said, scout and rivals and espn all skew rankings to a paying public. It's why ESPN rankings are generally directed at SEC recruits. Scout is much more West coast, and rivals is somewhere in the middle and pandering to their strong schools. At some point development matters, not what you were rated at 16.

    I used to make fun of some of these idiots who live for recruiting, but can't name 10 players from a class 2 or 3 years back. It's just a joke how much they fawn over guys that the majority never play or make much of a difference. It's really sad actually.

    Stars mean something when you evaluate how well a coach recruits. The coaches go after the guys with the high ratings, and would take them all if they could, therefore stars are ONE measure of a coach's success as a recruiter. Just one measure though, no more important than others (evaluation comes to mind...not a Sarkisian specialty).

    Stars mean something when you're talking about the as yet untested talent in your freshman and RS freshman classes. They don't mean much, but there isn't much else to go on.

    Stars no longer mean a fucking thing, and shouldn't even be part of the conversation, once a guy has been a contributing part of the team on game days. They are just speculation after all. All previous speculation goes in the dumpster once you see guys play. Judge the talent by what you've seen or don't judge it or try to discuss it at all, unless you're Auburndoog or BleenorFS.

    Bingo, I don't consider Kikaha, Shelton and Peters three star players anymore, and neither do the doogs on doogman BECAUSE THEY FORGOT THEY WERE ONLY 3 STARS. Those guys are 5 star college players, and that is what matters.

    All this talking about recruits and nobody has linked a recruits twitter or fb page to get constant updates?

    WTF is wrong with you people. Obviously you're not a true dawg fan
