    Baceilla, Fuller, Manu, Hilbers, Twattenberg (you fat pos) etc.

    Duh beta coaching is a massive issue, recruiting isn’t the end all be all. But winners recruit. You need this thing called talent to win. We aren’t popping off and winning a natty without it.

    Of those 43 we are missing at least three: Kaho, Yankoff, Lowe. Any others I’m overlooking? Eifler I assume?
    Are we the only top program in the Pac12 that has some attrition of 4-5 stars?

    Wattenberg was actually a pretty big recruiting get. He was an army all american. Sometimes kids dont reach their TBS potential
    Duke was like his only other school that would take him if i recall. I didn’t like him or McGrew coming out. Mcgrew has been misused tho

    Wittenberg needs to be more committed in the weight room.

    He was a top 300 recruit, Army AA and beloved by the local TBS community.

    The conventional wisdom at the time was that we only offered Nick Harris in order to get Wattenburg.

    You got it all wrong... First you win the Natty, only THEN can you pop off.

    beloved by the local TBSers because he wasn't here yet.

    same as every recruit every year.

    But have you never twatted a teen boi or followed one on Twatter? I don't even have a Twatter account. According to BDTW we all should have like a dozen burner accounts.
    They should focus on setting up a website firsT

    The 20th ranked guard is typically a 4 star, but would be predicted to be a 6th-7th round pick if the draft was done strictly by recruiting rankings. Last year there were 30 OL picked in the NFL draft.

    There are like 50 4 star WR’s. 50 WR’s aren’t drafted each year. Sometimes we overrate 4 star guys. Low 4 star guys are basically fringe NFL players according to their ranking.

    Wattenberg is going to be a 3 year starter and a fringe NFL guy which is pretty close to his ranking out of high school. He was the 13th ranked guard on 24/7. That was probably pretty accurate.
