It would be nice if we got more coverage. If we have the season I think we're capable of, we'll get all the coverage we want. What we're seeing with newspapers, especially the Palm Beach Post, is that there's a sense now that we're Palm Beach County's team, which we are. That's a big selling point for local recruits. We're just beginning, our program isn't even 20 years old. We are in a position to become the hometown team. Back to this get, this guy threw for 50 touchdowns his junior year and ran for 400 yards. At the very least, with his speed he could be a scout team qb this year. I wonder if they redshirt him. He could be groomed to be the starter once Robison leaves. And Robison could go pro in a couple years, it could be Littlejohn's team. We're the #1 G5 choice for every recruit at this point in time. It'd be nice to become the hometown team for the Post, which is writing a lot more articles about us than they used to. And that's an understatement.Posted On: Jan 31st 2018, 11:38 AM #376792
You are crazy.
UCF, Houston, USF Boise, SDSU, ECU even Fresno just to name a few are all way ahead of us at this point.
Our facilities are trash outside of the stadium and we "broke ground' on something a year ago and nothing has happened.
We do not have the fan support, facilities, or major wins that any of those programs have.
Also never forget how quickly G5 cab be on top and fall of the face of earth IE WMU and WKU.
Again recruits care about relationships with coaches, who is cool and in some cases who pays them.
Not one kid cares how much press we get in the PBP they are not 75.

I will reiterate no we are not.jgf2017 said
I'll reiterate what I said was right now we're everyone's first G5 choice after it doesn't work out with major programs. And I think we are, or very close. Our recruiting class is amazing already. Among others we have a stud WR who flipped to us from MSU, a great C who got big time offers out of HS and Littlejohn who it didn't work out with Kansas. Apparently at the very least we're on everyone's radar who doesn't get the P5 offer they want. If we're not at the top we're only behind USF, UCF, and maybe Boise or Memphis.Posted On: Jan 31st 2018, 2:50 PM #376795
That WR did not have an MSU offer when he flipped.
Their coach left and the new staff was like nah.
Getting kids who are pushed out by P5 teams at the end are still good players, but do not kid yourself and think these kids have a legit commitable offer and said "yea I am playing G5 ball"
Also getting pushed out by Illinois is not a good sign they are a dumpster fire.
Throwing for all those yards at a school in NC is a lot different than playing power schools in GA and the fall in production when playing better competition obviously made the P5 schools stay away.
I do not want to be negative Nancy as the player we are getting at our level is great, but I also understand we are not close to what you think we are.

Right now we could just be a flash in the pan that ends when Kiffin goes to the PAC 12 with his entire staff.
