UTEP is a beautiful place and told me that I will play right away, Harrison said...

Another reference to playing time.

Just my opinion, but I think this kid could play somewhere right away for us.

Isn't there some sort of restrictions on cartel alumni contacting recruits?

I would assume that the coaches are having to try to juggle quite a bit with Combs in play, potentially Howard, maybe even the Denton kids Thompson and Watson. Plus all the others that we may be trying to flip. Has to be nerve wracking.

Welcome back Eli. We'll have a "Zero" and a "Cinco" on the defensive line.

Billy58See. What is your analysis of this recruiting class so far?

Definitely not a train wreck of a class like it looked like it might be. Our high school class lacks a true headliner with a great offer list, provided fhat Kevin Dillman is just coming in as a tight end (we were his only offer as a tight end).

We've still failed to win very many recruiting battles with other schools, but we still could end up with some good players. I think we may end up with some good players because their offers with other schools expired due to their classes filling up and no longer recruiting those players, opening the door for us. In the future this staff has to do a better job winning head to head recruiting battles, but this may be the second best class Mccarney has brought in. But there's still a pretty big gap between this one and the 2014 class, at least from a quality, not quantity, standpoint.

What's going on Mean Green?

  I think you will see dramatic drop off in interest if that happens. The casual CFB fan without a passionate attachment to a particular team is a small market. College Basketball found that out the hard way. Your purely market driven model applied to the NFL 40 years ago robs the league of Carolina Panthers, Houston or Tennessee franchises, Baltimore or Cleveland franchise, the Jaguars an maybe even Green Bay (if they were poorly managed and never found Brett Farve). Hell even the New Orleans Saints would be on thin ice with hurricane Katrina without the Drew Bree and Sean Patton era. What I think is best would be about 30-40 FBS teams going back down to FCS. And I think a conference like the MAC just doesn’t belong at the FBS level. And basically any team that has jumped up to FBS after 2000 should be critically examined and forced to go back down if they haven’t met certain criteria in on the field achievement.

  I think you’re right. Morris, DT, Mercer, and Hammond.

  I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."
