TCU Fans Starting to Face Reality

[Stallion]

It should be at least added that TCU does more with less-they don't recruit a lot of kids who end up being non-qualifiers, they keep kids in school and they graduate kids. They sign 18-20 per year and Tech signs 28-30 per year. Tech sometimes is like a revolving door with non-qualifiers, drop out, suspensions and flunkies. It would be great it there were some way to quantify the Coaches who recruit well and develop those players. For example, for all practical purposes SMU's last 2 classes were greatly inflated by 15-20 spots by players who likely will never contribute on the field because they never qualified, dropped out or flunked out. Ole Miss signed 38 kids a few years ago and Houston Nutt still got fired. There definitely needs to be analysis of inflated recruiting rankings due to marginal academic recruits over the 4-5 years those kids compete. Rivals does publish an enrolled rankings-but its largely ignored and really doesn't trace academic subtractions in ensueing years

Not if Tech keeps canceling the games. Last time they played under Leach it was 12-3, pretty salty defense. The frogs looked like they had a down year, defensely, I think Tech or KU is going to be the doormat of the B12. Plus Tech just released there D Coor. today, going to take a few years before they get there defense rolling.

You are either crazy or misinformed if you think Tech is recruiting better than TCU.

You mean aside from the fact that EVERY ranking service has them higher? Mmmm..k.

Oh, you are basing this on the "stars" or rankings. Well that's stupid. I thought you might have an opinion on your own. Half the tech "stars" won't qualify and the other half are juco transfers. And of course you realize that TT has 24 recruits compared to 19. You know? 24 > 19?
