Here we go again...

that's a cute little team that would get its [deleted] kicked by the 5 stars or 4 stars or 3 stars even though there is about 20-10-5 times respectively more 2 stars. And I'm not going through the entire list but Brendan Marion at Tulsa is an academic vagabond. All that article means is that with 1,000-2,000 2 stars some of those kids will make the big time. The odds are against them. The fact that this guy is suggesting that these 2 stars are anything close to the best players in America makes this guy an idiot. Since they are not anything close to the best players in America the basic theseis of his argument is fatally flawed ie. that star rankings don't matter.

Can't believe we're still having this argument. it's like Groundhog Day

I beg to differ on the best player in america. At least one of them is at his respective position. Jonathan Luigs, the center at Arkansas, won the Remington trophy this year along with many other accolades. He was severely underrated coming out of high school. I played with him my junior year, when I lived in little rock. He absolutely schooled now starting LSU lineman Brett Helms when we played Stuttgart, yet his Arkansas offer didn't come until after we won the semifinal round of the state playoffs. An assistant coach on the Houston Nutt staff told our head coach, Kevin Kelly, that they weren't sure how hard Luigs would work since he was coming from a private school. Talk about some rednecks with a rediculous anti-private school bias.

You nailed it

Great! another genius with an exception.

This is not that tough. More stars is better. Occasionally blind squirrels will find a nut - the ones with 20/20 vision eat alot better.

Would you guys quit feeding Stallion? ex will never catch up if you keep posting this stuff

Stars won today. Woo-Hoo!

Go stars

A problem was our two stars had zero coaching or encouragement from the last staff of idiots

Usually they select three stars per game. I think they are fairly well coached, I don't know much about it, but I do know that they have been coached into second place in the western conference.

It gets you an 18-52 record, a fired head coach, and an empty stadium. For every Justin Rogers...who as great as he was and is, was only a sixth round draft pick, there are oh about thousands of players you never heard of and never will. Like Emerson Settle and Eric Johnson and Todd Alexander and all those other stars!

Are the stars out tonight
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
But I only have eyes for you.
