First of all no one is "bashing" anyone. Second I'm not too worried about what some kid thinks who just got a free ride - perhaps undeservingly considering his skills may not be commensurate with the level of play he will face. I'd be happy too if I were him but should we ? It's funny how most on here knocked Flood for his recruiting but now embrace the DisASHster for doing essentially the same job.
You're speaking with forked tongue.

No one is bashing anyone, you say, and then you proceed to bash this kid and, by extension, any other recruit that opts to play at RU. o_O

3. Informal To criticize (another) harshly, accusatorially, and threateningly: "My point is not to bash teachers or ......"

Explain how I am bashing given the definition above. You think speculating that a recruit's skill set may not be up to the big Ten level is bashing ? I don't. Time will tell if my speculation is well founded or not. I'll be happy to bump this thread in 2 years and say I was wrong - if it's still on the system.

Yes, I think what you said is bashing.

It's criticizing recruits (and Ash) not only harshly, but quite possibly unfairly since none of us can say what will happen and there's absolutely nothing to gain by speculating so negatively about it now.

Nobody is going to care in two years if you were right or wrong. Think about it. People for whom having guessed right or wrong on a football forum is important need to get a life. IMO, it's far more important not to be overly negative and unkind (although a little unkind to each other in a gentle and loving way is just good fun :D).

Let's simplify it and be perfectly clear. This thread is basically a commitment thread, so lets try to spell this out to you where there should be no arguing or gray area. You, are being a "DICK". An uninformed dick, at that...

Welcome all kids to the program. If you want to add opinion posts about recruiting,please do but these are not the threads to do so.

If you want to bash a kid, bash the kids who use your school as leverage to get other offers. Alot of northern kids come down here and do that. This Simmons kid WANTED to play for Rutgers. Point is that Ash got his *** in Alabama. Ash got his *** in Tennessee. Ash is getting into Georgia. Look at what your coach is doing. Kid had conditional offers from every school in the SEC. Thank us when he makes All Big Ten in that league. Oh yea Roll Tide!!!

Sometimes you need an outside POV to see what should be obvious to everyone here.

Sometimes fans here can't see the forest for the trees.
