Stars schmars...THIS is where it's at!

As for Stinson he was a big recruit 2007, but greyshirted not sure why their listing him again.  He was a Pitt commit for awhile, can't really lie about that.

Morgan garnered serious interest.  Of course we can't verify scholarhip offers, but he took official visits, including one to Mich State.  Remember officials are ones the school pays for.  So thats a lot of interest either way, if he stays healthy could be a big time pick up.



EDIT:  After reading Marcus' blog Stinson didn't greyshirt and did not enroll in January, instead he plans to do so in August I guess thats why he's listed again.  I hope he goes through with that plan thats a lot of school to miss.

Not to argue, but I'm just wondering where you're getting your info from.  I checked both Rivals and Scout and neither Kooi or Williamson had offers from UCF and UCF wasn't even listed anywhere on their profiles.  I just checked with the UCFsports.com mod and he has no knowledge of UCF recruiting them.

I also just check Stinson's profile and his only stated offer was from FAU.

What are your sources?

They went through the list of a few notable atheletes up here in Jax on the radio.  Xavier Lee- the FSU flop QB was a 5star, and Pat White a possible Heisman QB was a 2star before coming to WVU.  So who cares about the stars.

Exactly.

What I liked going through the list was the height and weight, we are definately get bigger every year.

GO OWLS!

Re: Stars schmars...THIS is where it's at!

For all of you concerned about the stars next to players names, read Ted's Blog this morning.  He interviewed Larry Blustein who put this stars crap into perspective…

Flip Flop Football | Rating the rank recruit rankings

“Those rankings are hypothetical crap,” Blustein said. A reminder, Blustein has been evaluating high school football players in Florida for decades. I have found him to be a very honest and good evaluator or talent, and have used him to help me gauge each FAU recruting class. Larry is the first to tell you that these are kids and you may never know what will happen, but his insights have usually been dead on.

“What FAU did was unbelievable. They filled needs. They needed linebackers and got three great ones. They needed a quarterback for the future and got two. They didn’t even need wide receivers, but got some great ones. It’s ludicrous that they would be ranked that far down.”

"The people who do the rankings haven't seen most of the players and really have no clue. They are guessing. I guess it helps sell subscriptions, but they really aren't credible."

I think that is the one thing that jumps out most to me as well. I especially like some of the size that we are getting at WR. Having guys that are 6-3 and bigger should definitely help.

Give it 2-3 years and then we can judge this class.

Stinson was 2007 recruit (3 star) who is their big time recruit.

Kooi and Williamson did not UCF offers, they prob got letters and some UCF interest but no commitable offer. That said Yourhighness Morgan and Troy Niblack at one time had written commitable offers.

This was a good class for FAU, but FIU signed a class that was a little better but their recruits have some academic  issues so it is to be seen how many can enroll.

This is yet to be seen. Every year they brag that they got the better recruting class. Well, look where FAU is and look where they are.

Two years ago we were saying "who is this Rusty Smith guy"? "His only offer was from FAU, thats it!" "He can't be very good".

Howard has always been honest. He wouldn't say it was a good recruit class if it wasn't. Read back a few years ago on his criticism of the 2005 team during spring drills. He wasn't impressed and he said so.
