MSU's not done by any stretch of the imagination either, there's still guys with heavy msu interest like Sims,hunter,custis,klatt,chris williams. |
Perhaps my point (beyond sharing a recruiting link on a recruiting message board), wasn't as clear as it should have been: we've got a long way to go when you really compare us with the big guys. ESPN got all of their information from Scout & despite all of Scout's faults (who works there, which players they have yet to truly rank, etc.), it just shows that we're not ready to make the jump to a national top 10-15 recruiting class. Would anyone realy expect us to be at this point? Let's hope not (I sure don't)....but let's also keep in mind that we have a long way to go before we are where we want to be with the nation's best. Coach D must first build up the recruiting base in Michigan (check), then surrounding states (getting there), the entire midwest, and ultimately the nation. We're on the way, but we're not close yet.
Also, there is no correlation between reading ESPN & knowledge about recruiting. I'd venture to say that most all of the top recruiting gurus read ESPN as do people who could care less about college football, let alone recruiting. I think what you mean is there is a correlation between not knowing anything about recruiting and getting
all of your recruiting information from ESPN, but of course this couldn't be deduced from my post, it's not what you said, and it's not true (for two reasons: 1) I follow recruiting & 2) clearly you would know
something about recruiting if you read ESPN and something>nothing).
