I'm just posting quotes from his press conference. Literally word for word. He said this shite.

If my comments sound stupid...it's b/c I'm repeating what he said. Think about that.

This is pretty dumb unless there is actually some transfers on deck. Time will tell but he probably shouldn't say things like this.

I know. How hard is that to understand. Our fans really are stupid. Literally stupid. Not just a figment of speech but literally stupid and many perhaps retarded as well.

It's becoming clear now? Do you mean plan for this class or in general? Because its beyond clear for a while now that there is no plan overall

I've given him the benefit of the doubt as long as I can. Him saying that the plan was to save 2 scholarships reveals that there is a lack of an overall plan. Like I said in the other thread, when you add all of these elements together, it's concerning.

Jesus some of you are dumb. You realize he meant that if they didn't get Foster or Surtain, the plan was to not use the scholarships on anyone else today just to use them. They lost Goodrich Monday. They were informed on Surtain last night. Foster went to A&M. I don't like him as the coach as much as the next man but come on. Y'all think the plan was to not get these kids?

what? But Ed....you're the greatest evaluator in all of football, why would you need to be more selective?

So Glenn Beal wasnt SEC caliber?

Washington out of Evangel? TCU thought so and TCU is easily SEC caliber.

Get this shite out of here.

What about the corner out of Salmen? Eddie Smith? Bama thought he was good enough.

Naw, Coach Zer0 is not a great evaluator as he claims and totally whiffed hard then attempted to spin that shite.

This guy is a clown

that's not what he is saying at all. After we missed on those guys no need to just give them out to guys like beal or other lesser talents just to fill out the class to 25


This is what he meant. The scholarships are much more valuable for immediate juco contributors or to be used next year for a loaded 2019 class

The point is:

1) You don't miss...
2) Or you have a Plan B and C if you miss on A
3) Therefore, you don't miss.

Of course you don't sign just anyone, but you don't put yourself in a position to not have options either. O is a poor strategist.

Coach O said he hoped to land Goodrich & Surtain. He had backup plans but couldn’t promise them anything because those spots were for the 2 mentioned above. He told the backup plans they could wait it out but he wasn’t leading them on.

He said they will now move on to looking to add graduate transfers. He didn’t say the plan was to sign 23.

Look it sucks we missed out on those guys but how else are you supposed to play this?
