You should focus more on your failed preium board with Blanch3.

Herbie is a little biatch

We are in a holding pattern as the place is currently over-run with jealous trolls from this board. But we have the maturity level not to respond so it is only a matter of time before they give up and we will move on to phase 2.

Is phase 2 where you and Blanch go away forever? Do you guys need any donations to make that happen?

I don't understand why you choose to spend time on a message board with no credibility because of over zealous mods who can't handle sports talk. Seems like there would be better outlets.

Can you understand why people are standing their ground in North Dakota to protest a pipleline?

Ah. Now it makes sense. Thanks for pointing that out Herbie, not sure where my head was. Two very noble causes.

Maybe you should stand your ground and only post on tBob.

My biggest reason is still an enlarged prostrate, but hey, while I'm up, I read threads like these

I'm on the team that advocates not editing other peoples' shit as well.. we have about 40-60 people log in a day, we don't need to be pushing anyone away.

Coaches found and developed talent. Enos and Duzzi were massive losses. Those are good cidxges because credible schools went after them. Not Northern Michigan

Oh,  I thought it was just Conklin and Cook. That's what you and your fellow dumbass blanch told us. I'm just happy we lucked into those two players.

As for finding and developing talent, did Mark Dantonio have anything to do with that or was it just Narduzzi and Enos?

Consult blanch and let me know. TIA, Walvie.

replace those two with TOC and machado, and let me know how many big ten titles we win from 2013 to 2015

Did this new kid commit on a committable offer or a non-committable offer?

I think if depends on if he signs.  Then it's committable.  If he doesn't it was non-committable because we investigated grades and character.

I think we should give Turtleneck his recruiting board. Let the swill evolve a bit. the 24/7 types can go there.

Phase 1 has been destroying the Bob. Once Herbie and the trolls leave, Phase 2 can begin.

I don't agree with the whole "troll" notion, DR. My feelings re: "trolls" are well known here. The people that take the bait like a panfish over and over again are just as guilty.

With that said, the swill has evolved and it is not NEARLY as bad as it used to be.

That makes sense, I guess. But what if we only investigate the grades OR the character. (Not both, only one.) Then is it a partially committable offer?

If you don't know... Yada yada.

Just checkin back in on this....

So, things are really, really not going well in recruiting, are they? We had a pretty solid class in-state, and did we go ofer on the top guys?

When was the last time things were this bad in recruiting? (Of course, this is for those of you who "follow recruiting". I know most of you don't.)

Man....I say scrap it.

Currently the 27th class in the country.  We will still offer more kids.  Currently the 5th class in the big ten

I'll let the recruiting guys tell me this class is worse or better than any other class Dantonio has put together while here.  It's my opinion he's won a couple of big ten titles and a rose and cotton with classes ranked less that last years and this years class.  

So, if your a chicken little, and into the numbers, go ahead and cluck cluck cluck.  

Me?  I'll be damned if that playoff team or this years 3-9 team changed my life one bit either way.

I don't know if Dantonio can turn a pigs ear into silk again.  He's won championships with classes ranked much lower.

According to Rivals we have 17 committs - 14 3 stars and 3 4 stars. That is an average star of 3.18 and 28th ranked in the nation. I would guess this is in the ballpark of the level that MSU has recruited for the last 5 to 10 years, probably a bit better than average and closer to the higher rank MSU has had the last couple years

Dantonio has beaten OSU with less.  Can he do it again?   A lot of shit has to go right.   No doubt all of us have taken a hit in the confidence level we had in him and his staff.  I have gone from "shit, this staff and Dantonio really can find guys and make them play football" to " They need the right attitudes and work ethic for Dantonio and staff to make them into players."   In other words, I went from thinking Dantonio and staff were about 75% responsible for motivating players into what they had become at MSU to about 40 % responsible.   It's the players who by and large need to bring a work ethic and attitude with them and it's hard to motivate them into working hard and studying hard.  If you  don't have that attitude with you when you enter college, It's damn hard for coaches to instill it into you.  

HOwever, Dantonio has surprised the hell out of me before.  I'm not completely thinking "fuck it" welcome back to SOS.

Beaten OSU with less?

Both times we beat OSU we've had stacked rosters with NFL talent.

By what analytical guideline? The NFL draft or recruiting stars?
