Stop the delusions - he's a 2 star.


Should Florida fans be pissed that they're going to sign a 2 star WR?

He's a good find. Quit whining about stars. Perriloux was a 5, Ciron and Lafell were 3 stars. who worked out better for us?

What LA players do you like more in this class?

We just gave up 1,000 recruiting points and are now going after 2 stars.

I'm sorry , but Les has lost control of this program.

We handed him the keys to a Porsche 917, now
he's driving a Gremlin.

3* Brandon Lafell, 3* Ciron Black, and 3* Kelvin Riley doesnt agree with you

Have you seen Florida's last few recruiting classes, including their current? Their fans probably wouldn't care if they signed ME at WR...they're just so loaded.

And they have the coaching staff to compensate.


We, on the other hand, DO NOT have the coaches to compensate, and are starting to rake in some highly average players.

So that means they can just sign random people because they have enough talent on the team already?

Our WR coach was their's.

If this kid if such a player, why didn't we target him initially?

We had Davis, Hunter, made a hard push for Reed. We were going to be all set at WR.

Of course, we lose all 3, and now pick up Williams. Seems like we're "settling" on him.

But again, if he's that good (and I'm not saying he isn't), why weren't we after him a year ago?


Do you understand how this recruiting thing works?

Have you seen LSU's last few recruiting classes? Top 10 this year in a down year in in-state talent. Arguably the #1 class last year.

Well....yeah. If we still had Davis and Hunter no we wouldn't have offered him. When you lose somebody you go to your next target that's how it works. I'm not sure what you are trying to prove.

Slidell sucks balls, seriously. I don't even think they won 4 games this year. They don't have a QB who can get this guy the ball either...they run a lot.

I know against the game I saw him in, he tore Ponchatoula a new arse. I honestly didn't think much of him then until I thought back at that game when he was recently mentioned as being recruited by us...

Definitely under the radar and I could see why he slipped through the cracks playing for Slidell.

Yes, last years was not quite what ours was.

Huh? They lost two of their best this year, and Urban is having some sort of mini meltdown.

Minus Tebow and Strong Florida will look much different.

Then why do you drag a kid into it. This is about your disdain for Miles....leave a high school kid who you know NOTHING about out of it.

Then go and try to name a couple of position coaches at Florida, seeing as you crown them the best

Just got back home. Anything important happen here between pages 3 and 11? I'm assuming everyone still either has their head up their arse or is trying to talk some sense into folks.

The list of schools itself is not impressive except there are some reall offensive coaches on that list that wanted him including Arkansas, Houston, SMU (June Jones), Mississippi State. So someone isn't paying much attention to Rivals and Scout ratings.

I really don't see anyone who has committed to get that excited about. Hopefully these guys will fool us all and turn out to be stellar players, but if the scouting combines are correct this is not exactly a super class.
