At this point it might be time to stop dooging about Savell and wish him luck wherever he goes. Unless of course he chooses Oregon at which point it's ok to hope he gets 4 years of high ankle sprains and then heals up before the NFL draft. Of course I hold out 5% hope that he changes his mind but the dream of a Hometown Hero seems faded. As an alternative I'm changing my definition of Hometown Hero to players that are willing and excited to represent my hometown. My nominee for new definition Hometown Hero is Jalen McMillan. While we are disappointed by Savell a lot of that disappointment is eased by the committment of Jalen. His efforts in recruiting other players to play with himshows a level of leadership and maturity that I haven't seen in Savell. We got a total winner in JM and the other players that want to win with him is gonna ease a ton of the Savell disappointment.
what are the odds Smalls shows up at Oregon's SNL event just so he can be spotted with another de facto "fuck you" to UW? JHOP just a few days ago said Smalls wasn't going to Oregon but I am still interested if he goes to SNL and if they makes his top 6.

Smalls in tallatrashy right now. Weather is too hot.

You can't start your post with that sentence and then run the oldest play in the doog playbook. I do agree in the sense of JM being a guy so talented he has gravity to bring talent with him, and gives the effort to actively recruit. That's something that's becoming super value with Twitter and ig playing such a big role in the whole process now. Smalls is a monster at a position we desperately need and getting Jalen McMillan doesn't lessen that need, but a big part of SS being "THE MOST IMPORTANT RECRUIT IN SCHOOL HISTORY" was /is the expectation that he would open the floodgates on top tier in-state. Huard, McMillan (by way of Huard,) and Garbers have all mitigated that to an extent, and I'm not sure Smalls has as much influence on other recruits as we thought a year ago. The recruit gravity or pull idea is interesting and tough to quantify. Those three above have it in differing amounts, Kalepo had it, even Miki Ah You and Mosiah Liu in a little different way with the poly movement. Coaches have offered guys for a better chance with a brother or teammate forever, but I'm curious how much attention they pay to a recruit's social web since it can be much bigger today.
Oh Jesus, you guys love your fucking starts
@animate, that's not true at all. Alabama's 2019 recruiting class had one 3*, twenty-three 4*, and three 5*. They are not getting three stars on purpose, they are taking the best talent they can get at all times.
It's such a shame, he could be an absolute legend at UW. Under Jimbo FSU had it's flaws (lots of them) but they were an elite program. Now under Taggart all of the bullshit that was happening under Jimbo remains and they can't even win anymore (year 1 I don't care that kind of talent should never finish 5-7 in the acc). With that said they are completely antithetical to UW under Pete so if he's not fond of OKG it makes sense he would like them. That's why I chose them in the poll the other day for savell's CB.Just a massive bummer. Jimbo gave up on his guys years before he left. It was apparent in comparing previous years coaches shows. He was sick of fighting with upper akademees (sp?) about facilities and other stuff needed to keep up in the arms race. He also had a very public divorce that involves his wife cheating on him with a local trainer (not CSB #1 guy) as this trainer was actually a former gator 🤣. Rumors of Jimbos infidelity also surfaced but nothing solid every materialized. In the process his son became very sick, cancer or something horrible. He was just done with tallatrashy and done with FSU. He had actually quit 2-3 yrs before he went to tamu. Problem is these boys trusted him so slick Willie walked into a complete shit show. Talent was/is there but these young boys aren’t fools and they trusted jimbo and he did them dirty. Willie has an uphill battle for many reasons. What jimbo built, he also tore down and it will take longer to get it built back then the time they will give him. Some of this is hearsay, some is factual, take it all with a grain of salt. Sounds like you care about FSU football It’s my job... knew here?
