ZachTheZip Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 There's so much stuff going on in the main thread that it's easy to miss stuff like this. It's great that we got a kid from McKinley. Hopefully more will come over the next few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZipsFan Posted January 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Already noted in the main recruiting thread: http://zipsnation.org/forums//index.php?sh...1635&st=360 Sorry - I'm not used to one continuous thread for recruiting... Usually each new commitment/ recruit gets his own thread. I think they deserve to feel special Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachTheZip Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Sorry - I'm not used to one continuous thread for recruiting... Usually each new commitment/ recruit gets his own thread. I think they deserve to feel special That's what they do over on Miami's board. Every offer gets a thread, and the ones that commit get stickied to the top of the forum. Each way of doing it has its own benefits and drawbacks. Maybe I'll create a hybrid. I can't sticky threads, but I can make a thread for each known verbal commitment where we can place all the articles on them and discuss them individually. Maybe later this week.

I think they deserve to feel special It's not a big deal. Like others have noted, that thread is moving really quick right now. It's probably not a bad idea to consider switching to a new style if recruiting news keeps pouring in like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only so much the staff can do with the time they have left before signing day, but recruiting has become a year round "sport" - and with this crew, I would guess that there will be a LOT of information coming out all year long...

Dr Z Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Sorry - I'm not used to one continuous thread for recruiting... Usually each new commitment/ recruit gets his own thread. I think they deserve to feel special.I agree. The other thread gets bogged down with players that a previous coach has offered and commits to another school. I want to know who is coming to AKRON.

Jalapeño Zippy Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 I agree. The other thread gets bogged down with players that a previous coach has offered and commits to another school. I want to know who is coming to AKRON. +1 million. I want to know who chooses Akron not who makes the wrong decision and goes to another school. Well maybe I do want to know who they are...then I can laugh when we beat them ala Stevie Taylor from OU this past weekend in basketball. Regardless separating them out would keep the old system of having all of those we recruit and their final destination to make those who like that happy and then creating a sticky thread for those that make the right decision and come to UA to keep a closer eye on which would make me happy!!
