You came up with exactly 2 names out of the hundreds of hires made in the last decade. "Home run" hires are like a hole in one.

Harbaugh is a home run hire. Meyer at OSU is a home run.

Encouraging word from OL Steven Clark, retweeting this: @SLClark7250 Forget Syracuse and Go #Gators... if you wanna win championships.

Clark is supposedly committing tomorrow.

Harbaugh and Saban weren't "available"... but Bama and Meatchicken hired them anyway.

If you want to make a big splash, you have to make it happen. You have to pay top coach salary. Fooley chose to shop at Big Lots again to look for a bargain.

He's a huge need.

How do you know who was available and who wasn't?

DE, Reuben Jones of Lakeland, FL commits to DJ Durkin and Michigan. Even Durkin has coattails.

This "grouping" by the big 3 players agreeing to go to the same football program, if it grows over a few years could create
the problem somewhat similar to what UK basketball recruiting is doing. ? Well it stinks like that.

I agree Rog. Hopefully that isn't what recruiting is turning into.

I think we get Ivey, Clark, Pellage, Scarlett, Conkrite, Davis and Zuniga.

Hope we land Francois or Lamar Jackson as well.

So, the big announcement at 1:00 turned out to be a blue light special at Kmart?

Yes, but everybody missed it because we were watching for the red light specials in Thailand.

We're just going to have to kill it next year to make up for our tiny class this year. Incredible how low we have sunk. maybe things will get better, I don't know.

I'm hoping Big Mac and his new staff are able to coach up the players we have so well that it's obvious to future recruits they are heads and shoulders above Will Muschamp in the teaching/coaching department so good players start looking seriously in our direction again. It's about all we can hope for at this point.
