Filling Out the Class - Weekend Edition
Trying to sleuth out the class, more for "how many spots can we take" - max 30.
Thesis
- We have 22 commits
- 3 gone so back to 19 - Elliott, Johnson, Weaver
- 2 added by 8 pm , back to 21- Uche, Mmmbop
- Silently (?) - Stewart, McDoom
- Added in my heart - Gary
- Warm feelings - Allen, Hudson
- Once academics clear = offer = Sam gut = sad Frankin - Dwumfour
Take you back up to 27. DiscussMan from there on spots 28-30. If you get both kids out of Cali (no speculation that is happening) you basically have 1 slot it seems. If not, then 3 max?
Discussion points
- Will Dytarious Johnson remain in class - filling a swim lane?
- WD says Hill gone due to Scout premium, no King player ever again to UM in our life until coaches gone.
- Onwenu flip chances small
- Fuller seems OSUish
- Murphy - very quiet
- Do we get either of the 2 Cali kids currently on campus? Both? If Asiasi do they take both Allen and he (I assume yes)
- Pie - still out there; always out there
- Nordin - Baxter or us?
- Viramontes - final 3 Cal, Utah, UM
- EJ Price and Isaiah Simmons at this point not visiting UM, unlikely end points.
- (EDIT) J. Jones - all the ballz to ND of late

No you ae not biting because you said a week ago you are done until NSD.
So take your biting back to your Recruiting Anonymous meeting.
January 24th, 2016 at 5:44 PM ^
Which is why I said I'll bite...
And I already gave that up awhile ago, I'm just being selective on which threads I click on. Don't be an asshole when someone compliments you on an awesome thread.
2 days 3 hours ago | I lied. (should be a diary...I want it to be buried in a thread) |
^^^I quit that 2 days and 3 hours ago according to the recent posts. I felt a need to comment on the Swenson stuff with some info after speaking to someone in the athletics department.
January 24th, 2016 at 5:48 PM ^
January 24th, 2016 at 5:58 PM ^
I'm not...but you don't get credit when you're late to the party.
It was 3 days ago, lol. http://mgoblog.com/content/thursday-recruitin-surveys-antics#comment-3702996
turd ferguson called me out fair and square...I tipped my cap to him. I could've just created another username like WD. But it's really not that serious. I'm glad I've steered clear of most of the rubbish - however, I saw this thread and knew Alum posts quality stuff and felt the need to read it. Especially since I said 2 days ago, I was done with all that because I had some stuff I wanted to share with the board about the Swenson/Spath/Greenwhatever debate.
January 24th, 2016 at 5:36 PM ^
Ideal scenario imo would be to not take Stewart and then get Tagaloa, Asiasi, Murphy, and one of Hill/Fuller for the final four spots. Seems very unlikely though.
I don't think we can take Nordin on scholarship at this point.

This board needs more bilingual humor ! ;-)

Care to elaborate? Or is this just YOUR gut feeling?
January 25th, 2016 at 11:01 AM ^
The density of baseless speculation in your post is remarkable.
January 24th, 2016 at 5:38 PM ^
January 24th, 2016 at 5:39 PM ^
Even though he's likely headed to ND, I think Jon Jones is worth mentioning in the OP.
January 24th, 2016 at 5:44 PM ^
Wait you are still here? I'm calling your sponsor.
Also, edited to include Jones.

I like Alum's posts...I think he's the best and should be on the MGoStaff. I just think ever since other people started noticed he's become arrogant as fuck. Which is fine, I'm rooting for the Panthers right now and their starting QB is arrogant as fuck - it's not necessarily a bad thing.
I remember when it was just me and Alum in the Late Night Games (open theads) watching some west coast game and still posting at 1am EST. So I have some context.
I never said I disliked the guy. But anyone who has read one of my far too many posts on this site will know, I'll forever speak my mind and I'm not afraid to say how I feel. Others may not agree and that's fine.
In this case, I thought Alum thinks he was being cute trying to call me out on something when he was 3 days late and I'd not only acknowledged it, but I'd also come back a day later with a post that literally started "I lied." I feel like if someone is going to make a comment, you can't comment back when it's incorrect. It's not even that I was upset or offended, I was just pointing out that it was wrong/late...and thus weak.
January 24th, 2016 at 8:23 PM ^
I didnt see where you did the retraction so didnt think it was offensive or "weak". Was just being playful on my end in a koala bear way.
I like the people who dont always just talk the company like - thats a David Brandon thing, so people like Don, Yost, and a few others who say things that are not always maize tinged are good with me.
I'm ok with being online arrogant ;) Also snarky. It's all good - not a big deal either way to me, just making random online comments, some snark fails.
January 24th, 2016 at 8:27 PM ^
Understood. You and Alum96 both make great contributions to the blog (as your point totals indicate). I just thought I'd use a little humor to try to defuse the situation. Now let's return to our regularly scheduled pasttime of speculating wildly about who will be in the class so we know which kids we like and which ones we hate!
January 24th, 2016 at 5:57 PM ^
January 24th, 2016 at 5:41 PM ^
That is a handy table. Nicely presented.
January 24th, 2016 at 5:41 PM ^
thanks for taking the time
January 24th, 2016 at 5:44 PM ^
Are things so bad with the King coaches that UM can't even sign the brother of a guy who is major contributor on the current team? I guess its just hard for me to believe that the King coaches would have a greater impact on this than his own brother. That would come off as a major coup for MSU :(
January 24th, 2016 at 5:49 PM ^
Not specific to Hill but yes upped a lot - they have 3 of the top 100(ish) players in the nation now per 247 Composite in Corley, Robertson, and King. And 9 of the top 250. That's a pretty impressive haul considering they only have 20 recruits.
Also not just about his brother - Corley and Vance are supposedly close friends with him, esp Corley.
January 24th, 2016 at 5:51 PM ^
Well it's not that simple...I mean Hill is only here for another year. His 2 best friends reportedly are Vance (MSU commit) and Corley (MSU commit). He would be with them for his entire time there. I think the best sell we can give him is the depth chart...learn from lewis for a year and then basically you are guaranteed a starting spot in 2017 given our roster situation.

We may have a better chance with Asiasi than I had thought, based on his initial visit reactions.

And Boss tweeted out that sweet pic of JH in his class with him at De La Salle. That's pretty cool. Getting a pipeline into De La would be great as King may be temporarily closed for business - for whatever petty, short-sighted, selfish reason the coach has.
January 24th, 2016 at 7:23 PM ^
I'm really high on these two, but I've been trying not to get too hopefully. Anything interesting that anyone has to say about either of them would be most appreciated . . .

A couple shoutouts on the front page and Alum's arrogance is approaching WD levels, lol.
At least it's good stuff in the OP though. Quality content can be arrogant...you're like the Cam Newton of the board. Me? I'd like to think of myself as Dominic Raiola...always around, but not very helpful with anything.
