I'm thinking Emmet Perry. 3 star kid from DeSoto. Listed as 6'2" on 247 so that's pretty close. Currently committed to Wisconsin. Keep that DeSoto pipeline going. Just speculation though.

Pls no

Imagine us adding another guy named Tre in this class and would could have the tres tres. Come one SL, that just sells itself haha.

Welp, I just want one more 3 star to be happy with this class and an explosive playmaker would be a solid place to get it. Also of note: we have a certain JUCO transfer QB who played at Eisenhower Aldine. Just saying.

My very sturdy sources inform me that he is expected to get 1.5 million touchdowns while at NT #GMG. I think we just need one more 3 star now in this class for me to be happy with SL's first full year. Pair it with a winning season and we should expect even better next season.

Maybe it's just me, but those stats seem great, yeah I would like to see that 40 be .1 second faster, but this seems like a really good get for us.

I think the most interesting thing said has to do with blue shirts. If the staff didn't have something up their sleeves why would they be blueshirting 3 to 5 guys in a class of 19 guys with 20 scholarships to give. That means we would have 4-6 schollies left for this year and would be just eating out of the next class. I have faith in SL and his staff that there will be some surprise come NSD, whether it will be good or bad will be seen tomorrow.

Welp that was short lived haha

I gave this 1.5 million likes.

Yeah. I understand he has had some academic issues, but we could blue shirt him and see how it turns out.

247 lists him as a 2 star .74 recruit. He is ranked as the 3rd best P per 247 though so I'm more than happy to have this kid here.

He was finally rated. 247 lists him as a 2 star .76 recruit.

Is anyone going to the NSD event at Apogee? I would love to meet some of y'all in person haha.

I'm hoping he'll pick us, but my prediction is 65% UCLA, 30% FAU, & 5% North Texas. But, if we land him I'll be beyond excited. I think with English & Hoston (Hopefully), our D-Line should be solid, I saw that we offered a LB from Illinois (I think?) so that would be nice, & I have a good feeling that since Bradley didn't decommits he'll stick with us.

Well NSD is now only a couple of days away and many kids are committing today. So I'm curious who y'all think the best remaining get for us would be. Who is the best guy we've offered that you think we have a chance of getting. I would think Tre Siggers would probably be our best remaining potential get, but I would love to see what y'all think.

His pinned tweet is still of him signing his LOI to play here & his bio still says he is a DE here, but he wasn't eligible last season. *Whispers into the void* Imagine having both English and Hoston on the D-Line and our defense improving even further this year

I thought about going 2 more recruiting classes back, but at that time different schools were in different conferences and all other kinds of confounding variables.

You get a 5-8 record by looking at the listed year's record. Over those 4 years we had 19 wins/4 years = 4.75 wins rounded to 5. Over those 4 years we had 31 losses /4 years = 7.75 losses rounded to 8. Hence the 5-8 average record. The "top 4 in recruiting" are Marshall, MTSU, Southern Miss, & LA Tech because they had the 4 highest average class rankings. So. Miss averaged 5-8 over that 4 year span, which I wouldn't label great and MTSU only average 7-6, which is a winning record, but not something necessarily to brag about. LA Tech has done well with 8-5 and obviously since Marshall placed 1st in recruiting all 4 of those years they did fairly well at 9-4, however this takes into account some drastic poles such as going from a 1 loss season to last season going 3-9. WKU had been the most successful program though averaging 10-3 with an average 8th ranked recruiting class. Plus let's not forget FAU has averaged 5th in recruiting but they only average a 4-8 record. The SD for this data is is comparing the ACR to AR (wins). So basically if you look at expected wins for a school that finishes 5th in recruiting then you will see that 95% of the time they'll fall within SD of 3.5. Which is pretty large given that there are a maximum of 13 games to be played.

I think someone should tell him we go by MeanGreen not the GreenMachine haha ?

*Prepares for copious amounts of dislikes* I have an ungodly amount of free time this late at night so I decided to look at the recruiting classes for each C-USA school from 2013-2016 and compared it with their record to find a correlation between average class rank and average record in our conference. Here is what I found (ACR = Average Class Ranking, AR = Average Record): Marshall: ACR: 1, AR: 9-4 MTSU: ACR: 4, AR: 7-6 Southern Miss: ACR: 4, AR: 5-8 LA Tech: ACR: 4, AR: 8-5 FAU: ACR: 5, AR: 4-8 WKU: ACR: 8, AR: 10-3 UAB: ACR: 8, AR: 4-8 (minus 2 seasons) UNT: ACR: 9, AR: 5-8 ODU: ACR: 9, AR: 7-5 FIU: ACR: 9, AR: 4-8 Rice: ACR: 10, AR: 7-6 UTKFC: ACR: 11, AR: 5-7 Charlotte: ACR: 12, AR: 3-9 (minus one se) UTEP: ACR: 13, AR: 5-8 So what is the correlation here? First thing to note is that the standard of deviation is 3.5, which is pretty large given a sample size of 14. Next thing to note is that the coefficient of determination of this data is .2048, in a research setting this would be a very slight correlation, it would need further testing to test for statistical significance. So what does all of this mean? It means the sky isn't falling yet. It means we should wait and see how this class plays before we start calling for SL's job like some are already doing here.

http://247sports.com/Player/Austin-McGehee-30346 out of HS he was a 3 star recruit and the 13th overall ranked K. I'm guessing this means the Driggers ship has sailed?

With that kind of attendance + winning football team + national television deals + mediocre to good basketball = potential move up in the next conference realignment.

Have y'all looked at his posts on Twitter? FULL of UH fans begging him to come play. This is ridiculous.

Well, he did say he was leaning towards them, sucks to not show up though.

Do we have a list of who all is visiting this weekend, I've heard some rumors but I would like a definitive list. JayD?
