Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

I actually think that's a good point Chief. If RR goes say....6-6 and keeps his job and gets off the bubble so his recruiting competitors can't use it against him I thoroughly expect recruiting to pick up. If it doesn't, I'll have some concerns.

My concern like many here is the OL. I'm in the minority I know, but let's say KT stays healthy we're to win out. Slim chance, I know, but would the prospect of having the opportunity to share the field with a player of KT's abilities spark the interest of already committed top OL talent...can we flip a few?

I heard somewhere that I think Friek might get a redshirt and come back next year. I do hope the next 5 recruits are all O Lineman

He's a pretty decent pick up. Good size and strength. Needs work but he was coached well at Oceanside. Hearn and Whittacker helped with this one. Good stuff.

He looks like a big wide out or maybe he gains weight and plays in that flex TE position. I like what I see. Be curious what others think

Yeah that guy looks like a future TE to me. That puts us at 17 commits right? I assume we'll have a couple of grey shirts and add like 3 more guys.
