Isnt it illegal for "fans" to contact recruits about attending their school? Syracuse offered Washington and he is getting bombared by their fans on twitter. Sad.

Awesome. Sounds like we are set to have the worst recruiting class in the country.

I really dont feel like arguing about this anymore. Bowden gave Buckley his first "real" coaching job. He did a nice job and got offered the same position at a BCS program. Good for him. However, I personally think it is in poor taste to then pursue the team that you are leavings recruits. It isnt how you say thank you to the guy that gave you your shot. Again...Louisville has no reason to poach recruits from Akron. If they do, Buckley should not have left.

You miss the point. BCS to BCS it happens. I dont like it, but it happens. BCS schools should not take from the MAC. There is just absolutely no reason for it. All I am saying is that each situation is different and I figured Buckley would see that. I guess he doesn't. It doesn't really matter what I think. I just wonder what Bowden thinks about it, not that he would actually say in public what he truly believes.

No way does he have room for all of those guys. Franklin has taken (as of last night) 4 guys and PSU only has 2 spots open. He isnt going to release the entire class that already had signed on with Penn State in order to try and flip all his old recruits from Vandy. Franklin has been there for a few years, so they arent a bottom dwellar. They have turned into a mid level SEC team and his recruits were good. You cant compare that to Akron. Back to us...what do we have, about 7 or 8 solid commits? If we have more, you sure as heck cant confirm it on any recruiting sights.

There is a large difference in a BCS school taking recruits from another BCS school. It is a whole other thing when a BCS school is taking recruits from a national bottom dwellar. Every db Lousiville has committed is ranked higher than Washington. Buckley has zero reason to take our recruits. How is what Buckley is doing any different than Franklin?

It makes me lose a lot of respect for Buckley. Does he really think that Louisville needs to be poaching our recruits? That is a bad move on his part. He left us at the worst time of the year and then probably takes our best db recruit. Way to burn bridges man.

From what I am hearing, it looks like Buckley took Trumaine Washington from us.

No kidding. That could be a train wreck.

Looks like he set an official visit for January 17th. It was done before Buckley bolted, so hopefully we dont lose the chance at him as well. That is a heck of an offer sheet. http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recr...an-Cordy-149501 http://recruiting.scout.com/a.z?s=73&p...amp;nid=6978849

Unless we get the Toledo treatment. That schedule looks like a 7-5 season to me. Hopefully, we win the games we should and steal one or two and make that an 8 or a 9 win season.

I wish the guy luck, but what an awful time to bail. Kyron Brown is now a soft verbal and Trumaine Washington opened up his recruiting after Buckley bolted.

Looks like he opened up his recruiting since Buckley left. I really hope we dont lose all of our DB commits at the last minute because he decided to bail. Bowden was obviously stacking up here for a reason. We need help!!

I believe balsy

Tressel was on the radio in Columbus today, basically lobbying to be interviewed for an NFL coaching job.

I dont know what to make of this game. Oklahoma hasnt been overly impressive all year and Alabama has struggled with pretty much everyone as of late. I would still be surprised if Oklahoma wins.

What is that?...lead Alabama?

A couple of bad interceptions?? I will give you the first one, even though you see those throws all the time in the NFL giving their guy a chance to make a play. The second was a fluke that got tipped at the line of scrimmage.

What is the gist of the article?

I saw that he had a forced fumble and an INT in the Miami Dade county vs Team Florida All Star game.

Which tweet?

No. I dont feel any worse having read that. It is pretty much on par with what I expect to hear from the large national universities fans. I did not go on that forum to discuss zips basketball. I just happened to see the topic while I was scrolling through. The tv audience may have heard the announcers talking about our success, but the product they saw on the floor made it all irrelevant. That is what happens when you only beat cupcakes and have no signature wins to validate your win/loss record.
