Jimmy lake on getting bodied in state this year,
“Asked about guys they targeted in the state that went elsewhere and Lake said every year there are guys they offer that go elsewhere and that's just a reality, but they're excited about the guys who want to be part of the program and they will continue to pump out the most NFL players in the conference and we'll see how good this class is or isn't down the road.”
Not sure why I expected anything other than a bullshit non answer but an apology with the promise of refocusing instate so it doesn’t happen again would have been nice. Instead we just get the we develop NFL guys shit, hey that’s great but clearly you haven’t been communicating that well enough. -
Too be fair Lake’s plan D was really his plan A. Didn’t want to waste time going through A-C just started with D.insinceredawg said:Kim's new excuse is that "big boys lose out on recruits to other big boys all the time". Of course he leaves out the fact the big boys replace those recruits with other blue chips instead of falling back on Plan D's like Lake did.

This is how I should have said it. Well done.YellowSnow said:
I mean fuck's sake, we had 43 four/five star kids "in progress" on the roster this year. More than Oregon or USC. We're still gonna be well over 50% 4/5 stars for the foreseeable future. Go out and win some fucking ball games Jimmy or fuck.1to392831weretaken said:Doog take: I haven't followed the class that closely this year, and I'm not suicidal over a perceived lack of quality. Not after last season completely broke me.
Maybe I've got the numbers wrong, but my perception is that the higher the "blue chip ratio" got, the shittier the team's play and record, ending in last season's 4-5 dumpster fire with the highest blue chip ratio in the conference, a 5-star quarterback, and finally fewer "3-star weaklings" like BBK starting. It left me wondering if the SOC program was broken, as it sure looked like nobody was getting any better/stronger than they were the day they stepped on campus.
So fuck it. I don't care who they were going to get if those kids aren't going to be developed into big time players anyway. I'll take 12 Greg Gaineses if that's on the menu.
To me, it always came down to those few in-state (in this class) elite kids who are can't-miss difference makers. Egbuka and JTT were this class's Budda or Byron Murphy or John Ross, guys who can singlehandedly turn a game by making an elite play. Everything below those kinds of difference-makers seems to be more dependent on coaching and development than initial ranking.
So no JTT and Egbuka, and I'm just struggling to care about today. The rest will either develop into elite players (Gaines, BBK, Jones, etc.) or they won't, but it won't matter one bit without a few game-breaking players mixed in when facing a roster in the postseason that's full of Egbukas and JTTs.
If we just get this recruit or that recruit...blah, blah, blah.
I'm sure glad we got ZTF and Ulofoshio, the "must gets" everyone told us about. Losing Kaho really devastated the program.
I have a hard time giving a fuck about who signs when they struggle hard to beat Beavis and lose to Stanford at home with a roster full of 4-stars anyway. -
