  1. and all of a sudden there is competition for the relatively few spots open. We can start being very picky over who we want.
  2. 200 ?????!!!! DANG! LAST I HEARD , A FEW DAYS AGO, WAS AROUND 50
  3. this is more than 3 times as many as last year.
  4. Wheeeeew! I thought this was going to be an NIL deal with Viagra or something.
  5. Oh, I agree about it being a business. I assume he has been told tthhat he was the first, but it is stupid little things like this that often fall through the cracks. esp when the focus is on the $$$. I imagine being the first on a coaches list is a powerful thing to a recruit that is deciding between similar offers. A major confidence boost for an incoming freshman. May be some blogger will interview him and ask him how he feels being the first visited if they have not already.
  6. I have heard/ read that also. It just seems like an awkward pick up line. "Hi, You are the first recruit I am visiting". It just seems possible that WW does not know he was the first recruit CHF visited. It wouldn't hurt for someone to remind him, JIC.
  7. Do ya'll think WW knows he was the first recruit Freeze went to visit? It seems common knowledge to us, but do you think Freeze or someone has actually told him? That would leave a big impression on me. I am wondering if anyone has actually Said to WW "you are/were the first recruit, #1, Freeze wanted."
  8. Saw this the other day.... Check out the score toward the end of the clip. You are in a Kentucky Crack house...
  9. https://www.on3.com/db/alvin-henderson-147701/ Alvin Henderson visiting this weekend?
  10. Can we take all the Prime crap to the rivals board, please.
  11. Arkansas just hired an OC/QBC... Dan Enos. I do not know if that will be a factor.
  12. There should just be a cap on how many players a team can have. no schollies other than academic. . Say 120 players-ish total for football. (and a reasonable limit on all school sports) Distribute the NIL any way the school wants to. It may stop some of the ridiculous amount being talked about for just one or two players on a team if you are responsible for all 100 players. Even the scout team and "walk ons" can get a small NIL if the school prefers a player that is a project . you just can not go over the 120 player limit.
  13. Also agree. I know UF has a strong and capable Spin department, and a strong presence in the media. I haven't followed this very closely. Do we know ANY of this drama as fact, or is it all still hearsay and rumor? (other than the fact this kid wants out of UF or was denied his NIL)
  14. I heard it will just be Robby's Arm out there playing QB with no body.
  15. We should know in the next 24 hours. Today is the last day to enroll/add /drop classes at AU.
  16. Thanks a lot AUBwins. You had to make me remember and post that, so of course my next logical action was to ask my wife if she remembered. She started uncontrollably laughing like a school girl at church. Twenty minutes later she is still giggling randomly. I ought to remind her of that one time she beat the hell out of herself with a pool stick.... but I digress.
  17. HAHAHA I can relate, after 10 years of lacking any serious exercise, I was asked to join a softball team for a fundraiser. They needed one more man to have enough players to enter. turns out half the team was made up of ringers. So we won, and won, and won. I was the oldest person on the team by a decade. I had no idea what I was getting into. This s*** was serious. No one was out there just for a good time. Teams were here from all across the state. We ended up playing 7 or 8 games with only 1/2 hour break between. It was an all day event. The beginning of the last game I got my best hit of the day... WAY deep into right field no fence. I hauled butt to first base, made the turn, and my legs started feeling weary. Rounded second and my legs started feeling VERY WEARY. As a young pup, I was very fast, so I figured if I ran hard I could pull off the home run pretty easily. I thought I really gunned it. I made the turn in the hot corner and realized I was not running near as fast as It felt. My legs were toast. absolutely DONE! I saw the ball being thrown but I broke for home anyway. It was going to be close! about half way down the third base line my legs turn to warm licorice strings. My wife later told me my legs looked like two of those dancing inflatable wind tubes you see in car lots. wiggling every which way as I ran. I was 10 feet from the plate when the catcher caught the ball.... I decided to dive for the plate. The sand was deep (not clay peat sand mixture, just sand), and I basically lawn darted/scorpioned myself into the ground. Face first. I only slid about 3 feet. Mouth FULLY open (and the first thing to hit the ground because I was gasping for oxygen) it filled completely with sand. Like a 5 ounces worth. My wife is now ba-ha laughing and telling the people around her that I looked like a bull dozer with my mouth looking like a dozer bucket FULL of sand. Ironically that is not even the most embarrassing thing to happen to me on a baseball diamond. I was sore for a week.
  18. Not falling in love. Not expecting anything. Like I tried to make clear, it is just a gut feeling. I do not go by gut feeling often. in fact I cant think of one time on the board when I didn't stick to stats and fundamentals. There is just something about this kid that has peaked my interest.
