Owa to UCLA. The Bruins are quietly stockpiling some major talent in Westwood.

And they will still suck.

Nice! Thanks for the info. Hopefully he can get his grades and his head on straight but he's confirmed to have committed to Wazzu. We need anything we can get at this point haha.

EDIT: He's saying that he needed a fresh start and a change of scenery from Florida to make sure he can focus and compete on the football field. Pullman is about as far away as you can get from Florida, both location-wise and culturally.

Worked for Devard, right?

The obscurity of Pullman-Moscow and dry-humping of anyone with a pulse by the Pullman PD tend to weed the bad ones out quickly. Hopefully, the close-knit, family atmosphere keeps him in check. As long as grades are good, we'll have two stud freshman linebackers (Mizell and Markle) to go along with Bland.

Wow....how can anyone be mad with FSU's class? The meltdown on Warchant is fun to watch.

I know right...I'm jealous.

Re: 2010 Recruiting Thread

Yeah, which is what lead to Lorenzo Booker exposing him for his Notre Dame bias and costing him his job at ESPN. Lorenzo Booker and Tom Lemming despise on another. In retaliation that night he named Maurice Clarett his HS POTY when it was going to be Lorenzo Booker. I had even heard that the trophy was on site during his commitment from someone on Warchant close to Booker.

That night also on Lemming 900 number he had been telling people Booker to ND and it made Lemming look stupid.

That is really funny to look back on.

Lemming got booted sometime in 2005 from ESPN. Myron Rolle called him out to USA Today back in 2006.

Our LB corp should be pretty solid but our depth up front hopefully won't kill us again. Losing Forde sucks.

Can't believe Cleveland went to The U either. Don't really blame him, but was looking forward to him wearing crimson next year.

Rivals ACC Rankings

This is the first thing that matters for FSU to get back to the top of the ACC and this class laps pretty much everyone else in the ACC. I am really excited with what FSU has accomplished the past three clases.

I think it has a lot to do with the fact that a lot of kids that went elsewhere were penciled into Florida State's class by certain people.

Today had the potential to be epic with all of the highly ranked undecideds having them as one of their final choices.

Everyone is in for Baylor. A real good class for Baylor.

What I suspect is that with the coaching changes there was a lot of misinformation out there. Losing Demar Dorsey sucked, given he was listed as a commitment. But with Corey Lemonier we knew it was a fight with Auburn. FSU landed Christian Jones who was reporedly Florida bound and Christian Green is still on the table. Despite not landing those kids, FSU still has a consesus Top 10 class and far outpaced the rest of the ACC.

I don't think the coaching change was an issue at all. If anything, it worked to Florida State's advantage. Making the change when they did saved their recruiting class. Without it, a lot of these kids are going elsewhere.

In the off chance there was any misinformation out there, the staff was put together by the beginning of January so they had plenty of time to work everything out. I would say they did for the most part.

Ferguson's selection surprised everyone, the staff did everything right with Lemonier, Smith's dad is getting a job in New Mexico, and Michigan provided Dorsey a better opportunity to play right away.

I am still pleased with the class. Since Jimbo's arrival, each class has been better than the last. I just wish they would have been able to get more DL recruits.

And Christian Jones was never going to Florida.

Chaz Green to Florida, I thought he was heading West.

Re: 2010 Recruiting Thread

Green to FSU, nice.

[MassNole]

Re: 2010 Recruiting Thread

Christian Green to Florida State.

Huge, huge signing for FSU. This could be the playmaker the offense has been lacking.

This pretty much does it for me. Gonna try to go do some work.

Re: 2010 Recruiting Thread

WOW @ UCLA. USC starts the day (really last night) by snagging UCLA lean Hayes Pullard from UCLA feeder school Crenshaw, and UCLA strikes back by stealing Josh Shirley from USC.

And they just added Anthony Jefferson, too.

And they're probably the favorite for Dietrich Riley.

Slick Rick doing work.
