I have to admit, jimbo looks really polished.
Most of the other coaches looked kind of awkward and some a little necky, but what the heck if they can coach. Hudson was a hoot though…they had to run him off the stage, funny aS HELL.
good luck
no one seems to know how to watch it again

Anyon know what happened to Todd Chandler?
Thought he had dumped his Louisville committment for South Florida this morning but is not in either LOI list.
To me, Coley wasn't what I had expected but Hudson was great.
You can’t tell much at these manufactured functions though. Trickett looked like he might have had a few drinks though and shoulder pads under his leather jacket….lol
Trickett being Trickett
Hudson was great. Liked how Eliot came off too. Overall was just really impressed by this group of guys. They’re top notch.
>>---l>
Agreed. Even impressed with the story of how Eliot was hired.
How often do you hear that happening? Stopping the interview to offer the guy the job. Pretty impressive.

Espn still showing us with 7 top 150 not 8.
Oklahoma and Auburn only have 7. That may move our rank with them
class of 99
Yea I"m waiting for them to change that

it says 8 now. We are still 6.
I don’t know how ESPN does rankings but we have a much smaller class than Auburn or OU. So that could factor into it.
2010 AD = 1 AB for FSU
UM shutout on NSD
So much for their big pro bowl visit weekend.

Mark Stoops will have to work on his persona/speaking if he
ever is to become a head coach.
Coach Fisher speaks well. I take it he does not like ties. Every time there is a post game or something he seems to be wearing the same jacket and turtleneck.
I hate ties
I feel for him

When you make 1.2 mil a year, you should learn to wear a damn tie.
With that being said, I agree. Coach Stoops doesn’t have the personality his brother has. Better let Hud do all of the PR work.

Woah Woah Woah!
Son, I’m the AD of a Divison-1 State University Athletic program! How dare you speak to me that way!
For instance, do you know who was responsible for signing the contract with Nike to wear those sweet Uniforms against Maryland? Me. Seriously, it was a ton of work sign that thing. I had to find a pen and everything.

Who was the guy doing the announcing?
He would be good for calling the game once Dekenhoff retires.
We're going to dominate the ACC
FSU signed 8 ESPNU top 150 players. Next closest was UM with 3. We signed 2 5 stars. No other team signed any.

Speaking of that. Was that Miami Northwestern (that all went to UM) class over rated I have seen much out of them the last 2 years?
class of 99
Im allways skeptical when I see so many high rated recruits out of one high school in one year.
and Havent* for the above statement
class of 99
Harris will be a good QB eventually despite being at scUM
Spence is a good linebacker, the 3 receivers from MNW haven’t done much, and I think Forston has been in and out of the lineup with injuries. The best pro prospect they have might be Brandon Harris of BTW. That whole class was made from two high schools. That kinda made Shannon look like a better recruiter than he really is.

And they're gonna live off that class the next two years
All their best players are from that class except for Bailey and Hankerson

I didn't realize Mizzel was eligiable to be recruited again this year
Did he qualify recently or something? I noticed Wash St signed him today.
THats bizarre....
With that said good luck to the young man and I hope everythings alright so that he can get in.
"You play to WIN the GAME"
I can definitely see how these kids love Coley
Seems very personable, very loud, and the pronunciation of smooth is key. I feel like I’m listening to my cousin and friends back home in Miami. You know that was him updating his twitter as he left the podium.
They gonna love
Hudson too…….I’m 33yrs old and I wish I could play for FSU right now…..or waterboy……
So funny
Now USC has the #1 class on rivals. Just landed two more 4* players
by westcoastnolefan on Feb 3, 2010 11:32 PM EST reply actions
I'm glad that Pete is gone......
I dont think Lane is that good of a coach, but his dad is……I think they will still be down for a year or two….then hopefully their probation will kick in……and then we should be in better shape by then too…….basically saying hopefully we’ll be turned around by then, and USC will be going through there rough years….I really HATE USC!!!!!!
Lane is a figurehead. Coach Sarkisian will be their HC in three years
Lane couldn’t have gotten the job if his staff couldn’t come over with him. Folks forget that.But yeah,Monte is the only REAL coach in that family
by westcoastnolefan on Feb 4, 2010 12:01 AM EST up reply actions
I saw that
He couldn’t coach, when they played against Bama…..play too conservative towards the end of the game…….They had nothing to lose, but the game, and they did that…..
How can USC have the #1 class this year
When the Gators have the greatest class of all time this year? Hmmm
Oh, and where were these four stars hiding at? You would think the press would have not acted like things were over with some four star guys still out there
So much for UF's 'Best class of all time'
by westcoastnolefan on Feb 3, 2010 11:35 PM EST reply actions
They’ll change it after Urban calls Rivals and tells them he dreamed of having the #1 class.

Wow Just watched Mike Harris's Vid's
great coverage, great at shedding blocks amazing at reading the run. Seems like a very smart player. the opposite of what I got used to seeing this year. Im as excited about him as anyone.
class of 99
Seantrel Henderson
Reading he might hold onto his LOI until hearing about the NCAA investigations into USC’s “matters”!
Is the above link working for everyone?
when I click it, the screen says “the media you have selected is currently unavailable”.
You need Microsoft Silverlight
They could not just use Flash, no, had to use something most others do not use
What a day.
Thanks for all the coverage and all the work of the TN staff/contributors. I followed at work without logging and was following all day. It was a tough day to work, but it seems like a great bunch of kids that Jimbo was able to sign.
Thank you for all the links as well. Just got through watching the signing party.
Trickett, Hudson, and Viloria all cracked me up.

I missed some things today
Was Telvin really about to de-commit or was it just a signing ceremony at his school that kinda threw people off a bit?
by westcoastnolefan on Feb 4, 2010 12:08 AM EST reply actions
The way
Jimbo was talkin about how it was a battle all the way to the end….some maybe he was thinkin about flippin or was doing it for entertainment purposes…….dont know why he would want to go to GA the way they were losing recruits today……
Telvin said on a radio show this morning that he was going to have good news for the Dawgs
Then he signed with FSU.
Oh, he was just messin with people then. Hell, I think his LOI was one of the first ones in
Along with DJJ’s

The first after all the commits who never swayed were in
My sleeper in the class might be Dent. We may be selling him a bit short.

Just finished reading all the comments that I missed after I left at ~ 1:15p
incl. this comment there are 3649 comments left standing. I’m sure there were a lot deleted so the total would’ve probably been over 4000 overall.
"The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary." Vince Lombardi
"We'll win games with talent, we'll win championships with character." Jimbo Fisher
I'm guessing this is the current thread?
Does anyone know when we can expect comment/anaysis from FSUn? SIAP.
All he said was sometime today.
I hope he’s getting some much needed sleep right now.
