Another reason not to put so much emotional stock in recruiting, especially QBs

14. Gunner Kiel, Cincinnati. Remember him? Kiel was a breathlessly hyped high school prospect who committed to Indiana, signed with LSU, wound up at Notre Dame and then transferred to Cincinnati – all before playing a down of college football. Kiel comes from Southern Indiana, which is not exactly Florida in terms of a prospect breeding ground, so there are skeptics still waiting to see if he’s the real deal.

we're about to get a barrage of 'chest' comments

Oh boy...this is going to be good. Let me go get a Pepsi out of the ice chest

Kudos to being the first one!
Chest..ha ha! Miles cracks me up with the things he says, though in that instance, I wasn't a big fan for him to be calling out a kid.

I honestly feel bad for the kid. I'm also incredibly releived he didn't come here. A five-star QB bust under Miles at that time would have been a negatiger wet dream.

Not even sure what you are getting at here
What made you wake up and post this thread?

Yeah, it would have been a dream come true for haters.
However, I don't truly know if he's a bust just yet. He would probably be starting this year and maybe flourished.

It's always a negative Tiger "fans" wish to have bad things happen to our program.

I can't imagine why people actually pursue misery. If Miles wins they complain because he just gets lucky. If he loses he's awful and should be gone. Literally no result will please them.

This is one of the best posts I've seen in years. Wow.

Kid still has the bird variety of "Chest" as compared to the "Man" chest required to play at LSU

That's cool I guess

Thanks to Kiel, I still have the longest thread in RecBoard history.

Well, the kid is a dumbass and if I remember right, it was because of his mother.
He would be at LSU as a red shirt sophomore (I think) and IF HE WAS AS GOOD AS ADVERTISED, would probably be holding the keys to the bus of an elite SEC team with a shot at winning it all.
I know he doesn't love LSU as most of us do, but he has to wake up every morning and realize he's at fricking Cincy and not at an SEC powerhouse....ahhh, life's regrets for a know it all kid who's parents interfered.

Mommy makes it to all the games though...

Assuming the way this post is configured you grabbed this from some kind of list? Website? Link? What the hell is the ranking/list even about? 
Posted on 8/12/14 at 12:12 pm to GeeOH
Is Kiel eligible this year, or does he have to sit out? Either way, if he is any good, he would no doubt be the starter, Jennings would have RS'ed last year. Obviously, we have to see him play, but his mom didn't do him any favors.
