College Football 2017 Offseason: We're Not a Football School Anyway
- Thread starter Monroeski
- Start date
Will be interesting to see if Solomon finishes his career there.
Reminds me of what happened with EJ Price last year with USC and he has now left.

They have solid coaching (especially defensively) the depth chart is in his favor, Solomon and Gary help to form a nice one-two punch.
I would think he would stay there since he committed there.. but.. who knows.
Didn't work on Najee Harris.
He's coming into a great situation. Will get plenty of playing time as the entire starting Dline is getting drafted with 2 of them expected to go in the first round. Has the most overqualified Dline coach in CFB in Greg Mattison and arguably the best DC in CFB with Dr. Blitz Don Brown. The talent is there on the Dline, it's just young. Gary looked fantastic at times last year, but at other times, he looked like a freshman.
It would be dumb for him to leave.
That's a long way from his mom. Time will tell on whether that will wear on them.

Or Landon Collins

Jim and Company just need to work him and make him feel at home.
Or he can do what Malik Hooker's mom did and tell everyone not to answer his calls and make him finish it out. Something like that..

Enjoying the cries on twitter for someone to stop Alabama's reign like we didn't just lose a national title game lol
I had to google these names. A "too old" DC who got demoted for a yale/UCONN/Boston College guy.

When your recruit can't sign because he's in jail...

What? Mattison won a Super Bowl as the Ravens DC, he could have taken any DC job he wanted, but he asked to be demoted and wants to retire at Michigan. Don Brown has had dominant defenses everywhere he has been.
EDIT:Mattison left the year before the SB team.
I knew that it was gonna be Sparty, lol.
Yeah Bama is going to be absolutely awful next season. Might not even be preseason #1.
Did think I heard on the radio, that a kid decided to go to South Alabama over Michigan State. Kid is from Mobile, so I could understand staying near home.
Shocking, win a super bowl with Ed Reed, Ray Lewis, Terrell Suggs and Ngata.

Yep, if he was worth a damn they would have won 4 or 5...

Xavier McKinney, Mac Jones, Daniel Wright and Brian Robinson will enroll at Alabama on Feb 13.
Apparently, there's a second enrollment period for the spring. I've never before heard of something like that, but it looks like they'll all be able to participate in spring drills too. Honestly, I don't know how the QB situation is gonna work itself out in the future with 3 QBs who have a combined one year on campus, but I'm glad Jones is getting on sooner rather than later. We desperately need the depth from him and Tua.

I think Texas only got 1 of the top 10 players out of Texas too
I was actually a bit concerned that hiring such a "hot commodity" coach would cause a big swing to you guys.
A&M has a decent looking class from the little I've seen. Nice to see two highly rated LBs.
Anyone know if this QB Mond is a Pro-style or Dual Threat guy? A&M's offense never goes right without a credible QB-run game.
UT got nobody out of the top 10 of Texas. Their highest rated Texas recruit is ranked 20th in the state.
In his senior year at IMG, Mond has thrown for 1,946 yards with 20 touchdowns and only three interceptions. He added 775 yards rushing, averaging a little over five yards every attempt, along with 18 touchdowns on the ground.
Looks like FSU's day is pretty much done, just waiting to see where this kid Marvin Wilson picks. It's nice to see Jimbo get good classes on paper not that we can put much stock into these things a year or two down the road. I think the last time I followed recruiting classes was in the mid 2000s when Bowden got Xavier Lee lol.

The always fun all name team.
Kobe Buffalomeat cannot be a real. lol
And Mo Hurst, probably my favorite player since Brandon Graham. An absolute terror for the opposition.

We don't deserve success as long as we have a guy like Briles appologist Casey Horney on staff

How did they leave off Max Cummins- Texas?
Nico Collins to Michigan and I think we are done. Our WR class is ridiculous this year, hell this recruiting class is as a whole is ridiculous, stealing two top recruits from the South on NSD is something that I'd never have thought possible. I am convinced that Harbaugh went hard after Nico Collins to spite Malzohn.
Is Gos Malzohn friends will Woll Smoth?
Signing Robinson definitely helped lol
Robinson and Lemons, guess Mac went over the AD to make it happen.
Herman better fix this. OSU feasted in Texas
Go back to the days that Texas got all the best players in the state

That's the exact reason why Tom hired Beck..

Reheat the Saban to Texas rumors.
Better not backfire on him.

We were still getting most of the top recruits in the state in the early 2010's, but we never managed a 10 win season. Now we've put together 3 consecutive losing seasons so I'm just happy we still managed a top 30 class this year
admin is clearly setting up the path for this. They're pretty much hiring his graphic design team.

Glad to see Ole Miss shit the bed this NSD. Donors must've been on lockdown.

Bama only picked up two DTs, and one is a JUCO? And only one DE? Well, Saban knows what he's doing more than I do, I guess.
When does Najee Harris transfer to Michigan?
ErnieMcCracken

After Solomon transfers to Georgia.
Well, we tried to get more D-lineman. We just missed. Same for CBs.
