Why do we "need it"?

To finish Top 3 instead of Top 10?

Either way I am happy with this class after having 6 losses last year…

Mack Brown said a rival coach told him that UM was putting on a scam and that he’d retire after NSD. Brown said he didn’t believe it and that he trusts UM.

Personally I dont think he retires.

I think he had a major panic attack from losing and has now gotten past it. UM has never taken losing well…..crying, going to hospital, blaming refs….the guy is the eptiome of a sore loser.

Why not?

He’s saying “signing day” not our class. The class is fantastic The Joyner and Luc commitments were absolutely huge, and probably speak the most of our recruiting efforts. We NEEDED to hold on to the Christians as legacy kids.

However, we started the day with 8-9 kids on our board and are currently 2-5. Green is the only one left out there. I would not call that a “big finish” or a super successful day itself. Don’t take this the wrong way…I absolutely love this class

Only reason for disappointment.

Is due to predicting our class thru G&G glasses (everybody is ours)
We always miss a few and get a few. That’s why is sucks for commitments to wait till last day, now we only sign about 25 and didn’t pursue another 4 -5 guys as hard as we should have.

Dorsey is definately a thug

Preston was a play maker… Period. Yes he was a thug but the guy made people look stupid. I didnt mind having him (UM/UF have alot more then a few) at all.

I dont know if Dorsey is ever going to do anything on the next level. I cant miss a guy I never saw play in G and G.

Deering, Dorsey, and Cooper at Safety :(

Smith to New Mexico, Lemonier to Auburn, Ferguson to LSU – that looks like a whiff. FSU went 1-for-4. There was a need at defensive end and it was not filled like they would have wanted to. Do you see us playing in a 3-4 next year?

I'll tell you what still bugs me however

We apparently told Copeland we were full due to some of these kids possibly telling our coaches they were coming to FSU and now a lot of those guys have bolted elsewhere.

Successful signing day with *

*considering all of the handicaps we faced from coaching shortage, 7-6 season, transition, HC who has never been HC. Let’s keep it in perspective. The fact that we showed up on these player’s radar at all is saying a tremendous amount. Also, being #6, having our name and coach Fisher’s name mentioned on ESPN every five minutes means it is a successful day for laying the groundwork for next year. Not saying we get consolation prize because a #6 ranking is NOT a consolation prize.

I agree that the deal at DE is the one that hurts the most

because we actually told a guy “thanks but we have no room for you” ….. Dorsey would have been a playmaker but needed to get out of FL, plus we have some solid guys in there. The best upgrade at safety is the departure of Mangum.

by mantanga on Feb 3, 2010 2:18 PM EST reply actions  

The surprises seem to have been a bit more bad than good,

but still seems to be a good class overall— particularly compared to what things were looking like at one point.

We didn’t miss by much, but Dorsey and Lemonier would have made a difference in this class. I also think Mitchell was a significant miss too.

So it’s not a fantastic day, but a pretty good class.

Crazy talk.

I’m sure you have at least a few people in your life – surely plenty here at TN – that have warned you, “don’t take that (pay)site seriously”, “careful what you read there”, “don’t listen to that guy, what does he know,” and once again those people were right. We’re a team barely hovering above .500 with a head coach our own school wouldn’t promote until about a month ago, and you want a top 3 recruiting class. I’m not saying you don’t have the right to be disappointed, but a more realistic perspective could have prevented some of that. Long story short: You should have breathed a sigh of disappointment, for example, maybe said something barely over your breath like, “Come on, Dorsey!” and moved on, you know? We’re not looking for the missing pieces to an NC run this year. We’re looking to rebuild a program and this class exceeds every reasonable expectation for an underachieving team undergoing a complete overhaul. See also: national reaction. They’re getting this one right.

all you "glass half full" fans are disappointing me

you’re really showing how your heads have been stuck in the sand these past few years and you’re showing your ignorance about recruiting kids. please don’t think for a second that losing out to new mexico, rutgers, south florida, auburn or lsu is any kind of indictment of our current stellar staff of young, energetic, rising stars of a football staff. it’s a reflection of how far the past coaching staff drove this program into the ground.

coming off a 6-loss season and the controversial firing of a legendary head coach and the elimination of most of the coaching staff, it took a herculean recruiting effort by jimbo and coley to not only salvage some respectability, not only restock the shelves on a terrible defense, not only get fsu talked about today as the surprising star of NSD (at the same time the gators have put together one of the most star-studded recruiting classes in history), but they have rescued this program from the abyss.

to say that you are disappointed today is to say that you have no idea how far down this program is. i am more excited about the quality of this class of recruits than i have been in years. this program is on the rise and, today, i could not be more excited about this team, our class and our coaching staff. and you should be, too.

Some folks may be more disappointed with today than the class.

Me for example. It’s a pretty good class overall, but my response to today is based on the unknowns— players who had not previously committed to FSU. From that perspective, we’ve missed out on a few today, and I don’t think it’s unreasonable to be disappointed about that.

I was just hoping for more because of attrition and letdowns we have become accustomed to. I also wanted the coaches to have great 3 and 4 deep at some spots so if they wanted to rotate guys in often they could. I do not even know if our new coaches will want to do that though.

doesn't really matter...

what matters is that we GET Green! So long as we finish in the Top 10, I’ll be satisfied…if not blown away…with the day we’ve had. I’ve predicted #7 for the past week…so will stick with that.

I haven't followed recruiting for long.

When was the last time we didn’t have a recruit from Tallahassee.

And for that matter, when was the last time Tallahassee didn’t have a big name?

Yeah, I realized he was technically "from" Tallahassee at about 6 last night.

JF made the final call on all target recruits. Def his class….

no

because he’s been working with one hand tied behind his back until one month ago.

by egynole on Feb 3, 2010 2:50 PM EST up reply actions  

Yes with an asterisk next to it

It is a great class because of Fisher so you got to give him credit, but it could have been the most amazing class ever if he had full control and his full staff from the beginning.

Very happy with how this class has turned out, being a fan since 2001 I wasn’t expecting to get 5 out of 8 today like everyone else. I knew 3 out of 8 would have been huge if we land Green and the fact we got Foose back from Zook is just icing on the cake.

doesn't for me and here's why

1. he wasn’t the head coach until two months ago.

2. jimbo wasn’t able to have a FULL recruiting staff that recruits the way he wants to.

3. had to overcome recruiting issues that weren’t attributable to him (bobby firing, dwindling attendance, mounting losses, andrews retiring, academic scandal).

4. the coaching staff was overhauled after the season ended. i count this coaching staff as his official first recruiting class.

to me, next year is his first official athlete recruiting class.

So I count 22 official LOIs so far,

Only waiting on:

Nigel Terrell
Christian Green

Any other outside possibilities?? Would have been nice to grab a few more since we had the room but it is what it is.

How many projected schollies will we have available for next year’s class??

Going out on a limb.

Makes no sense at ALL

ESPN shows most of the top 150 are in FL, then neither analyst mentions FL as one of their top 3 or even 4 best states for talent.

by Njfoshizzy on Feb 3, 2010 2:54 PM EST reply actions  

Also

top 10 players by rivals all located out of Florida and top 5 players by ESPN non Florida players.
