We were expected to take a smaller class (15-17ish) if Sark had stayed, and I imagine they were going after a lot of guys who were going to wait until closer to signing day to commit.
We did have quite a few people drop us when Sark left (5ish? not sure - they weren't all committed but we were either leading or in the final 3-5 for a bunch of them), but we might be able to get back in on a few of them. I'm not expecting great things from this class, but so far it's already shaping up to be better than Sark's first class (since he stayed with USC until after the Rose Bowl) or Tyrone's first class (because Tyrone sucks).
If we can just stay afloat with this class, maybe get some projects that can develop for 2-3 years and then become contributors, I'd be satisfied. Class will probably be bigger now since we might see some transfers, though.

This yahoo sports confidence thing is confusing
Well, the players sound like they'll be ready to play against BYU. The coaches leaving pissed them off and they're using it as something to bring the team together.
coachingsearch says Brent Pease will be joining our staff. Doesn't say what position. Also, Boise's DL coach is staying there, so that bodes well for us keeping Tosh.

Shaq Fluker is transferring from UGA citing a lack of playing time. He took a redshirt this year after having some back spasms and seizures in the spring and couldn't win playing time. I've seen kids change their mind about this sort of thing before, but as of now he's transferring.

@TomVH: No. 2 ranked WR George Campbell has decommitted from Michigan. He decommitted Friday, didn't want it out for awhile but that happens.
Cyan, I feel like you should have realistic goals for your program to achieve. Goals like: win a conference game, be .500, or regularly lose by less than 30 points.

Welp, just booked a one way flight to Phoenix and bought bowl tickets.
I'm going to the Fiesta Bowl!
Completely irresponsible financial decision but fuck it. One way ticket lets me be a bit flexible on return flights, dates and prices.

If you get the chance go to Sedona, what we did when we went out there. Place is amazing.
Not like this
Finally!
Southernfried Pimpin: You need to re-purpose some of these so-called FSU fans and set them straight. I think Meier, Striker-Obi, LosDaddie, and Yaboosh could all benefit from your insight.

So we've resigned DJ Pettway, one of the four players thrown off the team for assaulting and robbing fellow students earlier this year.
From my understanding and recollections he only served as the "distraction" in the assaults and never physically assaulted another student, but this does not sit well with me. While I assume that the staff knows something about the incidents that we in the wider world do not, I am not a fan of this move. At all.

MSU only has a few dorms with AC, mostly because it would only be hot enough to be used for like 4 or 5 weeks out of the Fall/Spring semesters. Was miserable when I lived in a dorm during the summer though.
If you schedule an all cupcake OOC lineup, it's a realistic goal.
Just look at SEC programs.
That's a fair point, but he had other D1 offers including, if I'm not mistaken, FSU, so it's not like this was his last shot for a life on the straight and narrow.

Urban Meyer to Texas confirmed.
Just be careful not to dine too much on cupcakes, might not be able to handle all of them.

Now for the real quote:
Braxton hasn’t made a decision, but when asked if he’s ready to play in the NFL, he said “Oh yeah, of course”
On the plus side Shazier said hes leaning to comeback.

Miller needs to stay, he's not ready for the NFL.

That would be D'Anthony Thomas all over again.
The upcoming draft class looks to be pretty laden with QBs, as well.
I thought he had few delusions that he would actually play qb.

Idk give him another year to improve, he made some strides this year. Hell who would of ever thought Pryor would play well in the nfl.
Which says 2 things
1) Pryor is horrible like we all thought and will be either a bench captain for years or out of the league away from starting
2) Bill O'Brien did wonders on McFarves mechanics that he went from wouldnt start a UFL game to making a roster to playing ok at time in the NFL
He seems tot be full of delusions if he's actually thinking of declaring.

The tweet included in the article are interesting. Surprised about this as well. Isn't Saban usually a gone for good style guy?

Cal is an upcoming [sic] program.
Someone photoshop this over a pic of Nietzsche: "Beware that, when playing cupcakes, you yourself do not become a cupcake."
SECamus will have a new friend.
