2022 Recruiting Thread

My point wasn't directed at Penn State necessarily. I guess I'm not the best at making salient points. I was saying it's better to have adversity to life's miseries, of which I can personally attest to, than nothing. I'm sorry I'm not better at exposition. Alex Smith is a prime example.
Some thoght he might die. I'm not sure, exactly what the problem was. But it was serious enough to consider amputation.
To save his life! I watched him play, I'm always curious about things like that.
In my opinion he might have been destined to fail. He's frail, at least physically.
It would seem he looked adversity in the eye and to paraphrase a line I'm stealing from a movie with Gerard Butler and Katherine Heigel, telling it to 'f. Off!'. That is the point I'm making. That's my observation.
I guess it would be nice if all that was required was to show up and claim a title.
But that isn't reality. At least not MY reality.
It's good in some respect teams like Alabama, Oklahoma, Penn State, Michigan, Oregon, and whichever others you want to include take competition seriously. That's why I think the method should include the Belt. There's nothing more selective.
People might point to a problematic year like 2017 (and there are many others, besides) as evidence it's a flawed metric to employ.
But taking it at face value it would seem Miami, FL might have been looking past Pittsburgh. Ahead to the ACC Championship. A game they could conceivably win. And advance, as a result. After losing to Pittsburgh, NC hopes were dashed. I chalk that up to the efficacy of the Belt as a qualifying metric. Pittsburgh obviously wasn't a serious title contender.
A longshot at best. But as proprietor to the Belt, something they clearly earned, even if say were 0-11 before beating Miami, FL suddenly have name recognition. Clout.
That's all I'm doing. I know not everyone is sold on the idea. But let's say Pittsburgh advanced to the ACC Championship after beating Miami, FL. Suddenly that game takes on new life. Pittsburgh might upset Clemson, in which case they might advance to the CFP Championship. Why wouldn't they? They'd still necessarily need to beat Alabama, and I assume, Georgia. In which case I reckon they might earn a national title. Despite having lost seven games.
Why are people so afraid of the Belt?

A baboon could eat a can of alphabet soup and shit out a more comprehensive and articulate post than this wall of text you insist on trying to get folks to agree with you on.

Not necessarily trying to do either. If you are curious what I'm trying to do, it's to make life easier for everyone. I think I've done that. Now, instead of watching every Tom and Harry Dick, we can focus on what matters.
That's all I'm doing. Some people like anarchy. I like law and order. I guess you prefer chaos. I prefer a proven way to select a deserving national champion. Sue me.

There already is a method used in determining a national champion, and every member institution in the NCAA has agreed to it. Let me give you a hint, it doesn’t involve a belt, relative proficiency, little green men, voodoo dolls, Ouija boards, or the psychotic ramblings of a message board keyboard warrior. What you think, what I think, or any damn body else thinks is irrelevant. Good Lord man, give it a rest.

It includes those factors. Admittedly it might be difficult to be aware of that without having put the time I have into it. If you are worried I'm making things tougher, thats impossible. A title assuredly ought to be given full accreditation. That's all. Actually you ought to be thanking me. I learned what's relevant to a championship. It isn't demonstrated by a trophy ceremony. That's the last thing that factors into it. Little green men aren't what I'm promoting. If you care at all it's about being the embodiment of a champion. That goes a lot deeper than a trophy. Why is any if this relevant? Tradition.

I might simply remind you with respect to what I consider to be a valid metric, I've yet to be proven wrong as to my technique. That isn't to say there might not be one superior. Quite frankly I hope there is. But I think the simplicity if my method makes it more comprehensive than anyone else's. I think you mentioned Houlgate. I wouldn't know what would be initiated within that method. Quite frankly it's irrelevant to me. I tend to look at things much differently. Whether or not that makes you happy? IDGAF. Because I'm not working for you. O.K? In short I couldn't care if you agree or not. It might behoove you to maybe give some credence to me maybe being right.

I've also mention Dickinson which is another severely flawed math system which failed.

Now on to the rest of your diatribe....

Not all of what I do includes mathematics. I outlined how years play into it. I didn't invent relative proficiency. I outlined it. There is a difference and it's yet to fail me in any respect I'm familiar with. It doesn't select a national champion as much as the national champion chooses itself. Hmmm. That might be something you might have to address. Meaning I don't usually make mistakes. Occasionally I do. I guess you can chalk that up to me being human. If you don't like my metric you can ignore it. It seems to correlate to the New York Times.
But I didn't develop it to replace anything. Yet another flaw, it would seem in your argument. That simply because I utilize it it must inherently be flawed? Possibly. But I usually find ways to make necessary improvement. Meaning it might make sense to someone like myself. But I don't really care whether or not people agree with it.
 
4 star QB Cade Klubnik commits to Clemson.

#1 Center in the country, Demetrius Hunter, commits to Oklahoma

JUCO Lineman Percy Lewis commits to Oregon. Lewis checks in at 6'8" and 360 lbs 😲

Is it me or does it look like Cristobal is taking Oregon in the direction of looking a lot like an SEC school? Seems as though he's building a helluva defense. Then packing the OL with big uglies and filling the skill positions with incredible talent.

He's said from Day 1 that he wants to bring the SEC formula to Eugene. It's definitely a major change from the Chip Kelly days when Oregon recruited speed, speed and more speed.
 
Since MC became the coach of Oregon, he has recruited these JUCO lineman:

George Moore - 6'7 310 pounds
Malasala Aumavae-Laulu - 6'7 345 pounds
TJ Bass - 6'5 330 pounds

It's fair to say that Mario has a type

I hope he had enough sense to get some tall QBs. How can you throw the ball to your WRs if you can't see past your offensive line? (Referring to UGA playing Stetson Bennett (actually 5'9") last year.)

Colorado had a problem with Cody Hawkins that was similar. But he actually played pretty well back when Dan Hawkins was the coach. He even followed his dad to the University of Colorado. When Hawkins was head coach of Boise St.
