We've made it. Kind of.

Watching the espnu signing day pre-show, and they list the teams in all bcs conferences and their top recruits. No cusa schools. No mwc schools. No WAC, sunbelt, etc.

But guess who they made a special exception for? Smu, boise, ucf sdsu and uh.

Kind of cool.

Yes- but for us I think big time embarrassing. I hope the CofC sees this as a reason to start the 'new coach' search.

This class will be disappointing in terms of the guys that we lost, but we're still getting peices that we will need in a few years and there are a few seriously underrated guys (Meyers, deiter, and Burcham) that have stud potential. Burcham has great mechanics, one can only hope that he comes back from knee surgery just as mobile as he was. When he bulks up he could be the best passing QB we've ever had.

OK= I stand corrected. I didn't realize Burcham was an all-american selection. By who? Parade or some other group?

Burcham was not all-american. I believe they were referring to Prescott Line

Burcham did win MVP of the Elite 11 QB camp I believe. I saw on another site where a guy from Arkansas posted that Burcham was of the best QB's he has ever watched and compared him to Kellen Moore.

We can WIN with this class. That's all that matters.

I'm looking at us beating schoolsfor kids we NEVER would have even gotten a sniff at a few years ago.

If our coaches can win with nothing but sleepers, we can WIN with kids who offers from Notre Dame, Texas A&M, Arkansas, Washington, Virginia, Kansas State, and more - that's what I take to mean by 'We've made it.'

I am looking forward to the future.

We can win in CUSA with this class but not the BE. We keep getting class loaded with diamonds in the rough and the odds will soon catch up to you. And the results usually are not pretty.
