Backpedaling.....
From what

The cold hard truth is....
Hopefully some of you can accept it.

West Virginia is in a Catch 22.
Win at a high level and win Big 12 Championships.
The conference will no longer exist and WV is in the American.

Texas and Oklahoma continues to play in the Big XII Championship game.
By 2024 Texas and OU are Top 5 every year in rankings and recruiting.

Big 12 stays and maybe expands.

So...
WV winning 10 games a year might ultimately hurt them in the long run.

Did you enjoy being a student @ Texas University? I was a little underwhelmed with the campus...but that isnt to say I disliked it.

Not everything is for everyone.
But if you are an elite student and your family doesn't have the money for the Ivy League or Stanford the UT Honors College is the way to go for a Texas High School student because they have a different program for each college.

WVU has an Honor College, I elected to not participate. The Honor College dorm was Stalnaker...their cafeteria was a better, supposedly. But the chicks were beat looking, Boreman South is the only way 2 go.

Its on prospect st which is sorority row...jokes on the honor college dorks.

If they don't move the Texas/West Virginia game back to November.
There is a good chance that WV could play Texas in Austin during Austin City Limits week in 2020. Like with any music festival there are girls galore. Probably 50x that of a normal weekend.

The Pride of Texas still stung by the thought of being cat fished by a recruit. OUCH!

No....
Usually in Texas they get exposed pretty quick.
It is hard because all of this is a creation of Texas recruiting.

They still have the old systems in place in Texas
The Fab55
Dallas Morning News Top 100
Dave Campbell Texas Football

All of the recruiting reporters know and talk with the high schools coaches.

But kids still have tried it.

Getting this thread back on track...... Neal Brown's staff is flooding the south and has been throwing out offers daily. GA is a target of many coaches. FL, NC come next. Not a whole lot of activity yet in states touching WV. At least not as much as in the south.

Another site has multiple daily posts about new offers. This staff is out there doing their job. Seems like much more activity than we've seen from any of Holgs or RR's staff.

I don't have an insider account on here or 247 WV board but I get the national articles.
He is legit.
But not familiar if the coaching change will or will not help.
Your last staff was high on him.

Please stop replying as if you are some pseudo-recruiting expert. You aren't and you aren't fooling anyone. You are just a slightly less irritating but just as ignorant hack as Pride 304 there Pride of Texass. One who thinks himself a lord among wits who is really just a wit among lords.

But perhaps you are brain damaged. Perhaps you truly cannot understand even the simplest of things. So, I'll give you a primer of how this shill works.

Take notes, there will be a test on this...

If one is going to "rate" things to see how they compare one can do it through norm referencing or criterion referencing.

Norm referencing results come out like a big bell curve. Some high, some low, most in the middle as you compare each to each other. This doesn't work well for "star" rankings but this is really what they do.

Instead, they pretend to criterion test or rate them on a particular set of criteria that must be observed. In this case, a set of recruiting "experts" sit down and (supposedly) watch hours of, get this, "highlight tapes" and then rate each person on a set of criterion such as size, speed, etc. They will also pretend to use other factors.

Now, you want to know how its all BS?

1. They are fake. They simply look at who has allegedly recruited them and give them stars based on that. Don't believe it? Simply look at what athletes Bama, Clemson, Georgia have allegedly recruited - automatic 4 stars if it can be confirmed, 5 if all three recruit. A 3 star automatically if one of them, as you saw with the fake account. All that is left now if the number to assign. Say 92 if Bama, Tennessee, and say a WVU all have recruited, and 85 or so if just a Tennessee and WVU, etc.

2. If it is criterion referenced, like they say, then there can't be a discrepancy in scoring. You get an 85 or a 93 or a 100 based on meeting the criteria set upon beforehand. You can't have a player a Rivals 82, 247 88, ESPN 84, etc. That "composite" 247 score is the biggest BS indicator.

3. Its all designed to get you to part with your money. That's why Texas always gets these 4 and 5 star recruits; Texans are stupid with their money and always have hopes that this year is the year they get back to what they never ever really were - a serious, repetitive contender for National Championships. Keep selling them the crack, they'll keep buying.

Everyone is out to get your money.

That is capitalism.

It is not about the rankings......
It is about the players. People spend money not to see the rankings. The rankings are provided for free.
People pay information to find out who their university is recruiting.

But like with anything. You have to understand what you read. You sound like a pretty intelligent person so you know this. Anything you read....you must figure out the writer's POV and why they are you telling you what they are telling you.

If I read an article on a Texas site, an OU site and an aggy site I usually get a good understanding. A lot of Texas fans have been around this recruiting scene....so they seen everything
Being an insider for Texas. On rivals or 247....
I wouldn't wish that on my worse enemy.
80% of the fanbase hates these guys.
Especially Fat Ketch. The owner of Orangebloods.

Texas Pride needs conversation so he created those 25 profiles to be able to talk to itself. A hole has been dug and it can't get out

Absolutely none of it. Texas Pride derailed this thread from the start.

WV needs players .....

I have been around college football long enough to see coaching changes that work and coaching changes that don't.

Right now .....Neal Brown is over his head.
He is not at Troy. He needs to find talent and get them locked up.

Sounds like WV may have found someone to play the Bandit position in the future.
A DE from New Jersey.

But Neal Brown is getting pushed off the table and everyone is collecting the chips.
2020 recruiting is determined Feb-May.
At least 50% of it.

More brain droppings from the Pride of Texas I see.

Dude has been on the job a month. The biggest win we had in January is that we didn't lose a single recruit. But according to the Texass troll Brown is "in over his head" because he doesn't have a single recruit from a fake site on board when he's been on the job a month and still hasn't discovered the Mountaineer Mall is closed?

A true sage he is...

You want him to win. I get it.
Never said that it is not possible.
So far he hasn't generated the recruiting energy needed.
WV needs at least 2 solid recruits to commit in the next 10 days

No, you really don't understand anything no matter how much or how long you say you've been around it.

He doesn't "need" to do anything to meet your ignorant understanding of college football. Quit relying on your own ignorance.

Recruiting exist outside of these sites..

Other first year coaches are way ahead of Neal Brown...right now
You can look no further than to College Park Maryland...

And the guy at Maryland has been there 3 full months. Huge help there.

Just because you and Texas were owned by Maryland the past 2 years doesn't mean they are a gods.

How would you know? These sites are what tells you the information you think you know.

Think about it.

About one month longer....

WV needs Maryland players.....

Since they have been in the Big 12 those have been their better players.
Can't be totally shut out of the state
