National Signing Day 2012: Top 25 Uncommitted Football Recruits
Florida State is mentioned. A lot. But perhaps more importantly, this is a good chance to look at the kids from all across the country who will become the superstars of tomorrow.

As long as thats what we hear all day on NSD
Then I will be happy with the word Blah over and over. If its not blah blah blah Jimbo Noles Blah Noles. Then it means they are talking a lot about other places and we are whiffing on some of this great whip cream toppings for this amazing Ice Cream Sunday of a class we already have. I want my toppings. Sprinkles as well. And Sprinkles is also hot

TN is the best
funny how the link to this article here on TN already has 10x more comments that the actual SBN article itself. Bud, you have created a monster…

"Speed, speed and more speed."
I might be flat out wrong here, but I was under the impression that Stefon Diggs was more of a route-runner/polished type of receiver rather than a speed demon. On top of that, they wrote that he’s even faster than Agholor. Is that true? I just thought he and Chris Black were nearly the same receiver. Like I said, I might (i.e. probably am) be wrong.

I thought Bracy was the fastest in this class

He definitely is.
What I’m getting at is that the article described Diggs as a speed receiver. I thought he was more of a possession receiver. I’m not sure though because 1) I haven’t watched much film on him because he hasn’t seriously considered FSU and 2) My internet is ridiculously slow and I don’t feel like waiting half an hour to wait for the video to que up if the guy isn’t even going to FSU. So that’s why I was asking.

people still have slow internet?
when my grandmother got online and got some cheap DSL of all things package and had speeds that the waiting was due to the computer and her not knowing how to use a computer was the day I though slow internet in comparison to having to wait for videos was a thing of the past

gotcha, surprised its that bad
Been a long time since i was a student. 97-200. So it was still in its infancy somewhat as far as full broadband/WiFi type deals of any kind. Surprised its still that bad. Not exactly that much to stream stuff. Figure you could at least get a video without a 10 min wait. You guys need to protest. Your grades are shrinking because you have less time to study because you have to waste more time waiting for videos of possible Seminole recruits to load then is necessary and with faster internet you would get the videos quicker therefore allowing more time dedicated to studying and helping with school pride by supporting FSU.
Oh yea run on sentence baby!

Slightly OT
but given the tendency of students to be leading the way in any kind of internet piracy, I can’t imagine Universities are in a massive hurry to switch to high speed internet.
If all sports fandom is a form of emotional gambling, football is poker and hockey is Russian roulette.
On campus isn't that bad, actually.
But what I HAVE noticed is whenever I try to download a lot of podcasts at one time, the system will kick me off the server… But you’re right. OT

Fastest kid as far as track speed
And he may have run the record track time. But I think in combines and whatnot he is always at the top. But his 40 has prob been beat by a couple kids just for the fact on a football field the speed may or may not transfer 100% from the track. Hes at the top. But you may see another freak athlete with a better time by .01-.03 depending on where they were cloked, reported conditions, ect

he may have a longer "wind-up", which is why others may have a faster 40 time.
but by 80 yards or so, he’s walking away from every other kid in this class.

Diggs can fly. Not that Agholor is slow or anything.

Thanks
In that case, I’m a little more concerned if he does go to Florida… Of course with all of the D-linemen we’re bringing in, they might not have the time to throw deep anyway.

This doesn't just apply to 2012, this applies to the immediate & foreseeable future.
Unless the game of college football undergoes another metamorphosis like it did in the last decade, FSU & UF will continue to dominate the state.

Hey Bud or any of the Admins
Are we having a signing day chat like last year. last year was awesome with getting text messages at each of the announcements and as out players faxed in officially, and swwing who we snagged as well. The text that Timmy had signed with the Noles was the best text that month. And we had some kind of chat and everyone stopped by. Even Newberg if I remember. We have any sort of chat thats possible to set up or anything this year. So much better then it was on a thread 1000 replies an hours

OK cool. It rocked last year. And thnx for doing all that stuff
I know it takes time and effort. And is a headache. But our own TN NSD party last year was great. Glad to hear something is up. Just like I tell DA-2 at the recruiting board, if you guys need any help with something I can do let me know. Was actually fun helping update the boards. Glad to hear something is up, Thnx Bud

Anyone else intrigued by what they wrote about Leonard Williams?
I think he’s a definite take. Numbers be damned.

Do you think the staff would take both Fowler and Williams or do you think it will be one or the other?

It’s an adjacency strategy. Once people get used to his recruiting articles he can start funneling them over to TN to read them.

Obviously we're all happy for you and congratulations are in order.
But I am a bit disappointed that your attention will be diverted from the most important blog: THIS ONE!
I don’t anticipate that it will.
Once we get a more concrete staff on the recruiting side, I’ll be able to give lots of attention to TN as well. In fact, have a whole offseason series sketched out. The time to write it will come.
Bud Elliott, you make me feel like I’m living in a dream world.

It's tough to beat out
a team that currently has your brother on its roster.
The other two schools on his list are much closer to home than FSU is.
Sure he’d be great to get, but if he’s pretty certain he’s not going to come here, I’m glad he didn’t string us along.
