6 years sober....

.....from following recruiting that is. Tomorrow is NSD and I could not care less. And it has nothing to so with Miami sucking, I just got tired of clinging to the words of 17 and 18 year old kids, especially since recruiting became such a business. If you have not gone cold turkey, you should try it some time. I could not name a single kid that has committed to Miami yet, and it feels good!

Board buddies - Has anyone committed to Miami? lol

Maybe one of those 20 fans.

LOL...come on, Cincy. Nice try, but we're not buying it. It's because you know you're not getting anyone worth having!

We have had some good classes, apparently, our coaches and admin just suck. That is what happens when you let a woman run a university, it all goes to hell!

Scout ranks you currently at #34. Suckage on the playing field begets suckage in the recruiting class.

I agree not getting too invested in the words and decisions of 17-18 year old kids is a good idea, but I don't think that following recruiting and that are mutual exclusive.

I follow recruiting (generally just what they post on 11W) so I can be more educated about what OSU has in the shoot for the upcoming seasons. But if OSU misses on a recruit or if someone decommits, I don't get upset. These are kids and they are making a pretty major life decision, can't blame them for having second thoughts.

If anything, recruiting at tOSU should be harder than at Da U right now. We are loaded with top talent at most positions and it might take a couple of years of riding the bench and plying on the scout team before any of these new guys gets a chance to play, let alone start. If they go to Da U and they're any good, hell...they'll be playing O and D, on Special Teams, and running the concession stand for the 20 true Hurricane fans that show up to watch!

The day Jamie Harper threw our hat on the ground and went to Clumpson because we would not offer his buddy, was the day I stopped caring. It is also astonishing to see how many top kids turn in to flops as well... jay has better things to do

I enjoy watching who is going to go to OSU. I don't melt about the kids who don't. Their loss.

All any Miami coach should have to do is holdup a picture of South Beach titties and the NFL logo. South Beach has the best tits, and Miami has owned the NFL for over two decades now. Hell, even this year with players like Perryman, Flowers and Dorsett, it will only continue.

I know that is not the same as Urban using a bag of weed and a blank class schedule....but we all play to our strengths

I've never followed recruiting. I figure if they're good, I'll see them on the field during the season. That's when I learn their names.

That ishow I am now. We are getting the same kids whether I follow or not

[Deleted]

Miami will probably get a couple of kids that OSU passed on. That's not bad.

If Miami was doing well and pulling in great classes Cincy would be singing a different tune.
