Because so many posters are guys experiencing BPH, so they are ready to pee at a moments notice.

Last I saw, we're ranked # 17, but this was before the last three commits...

Because without good players Bob might have to live in a house under 10,000 square feet.

I love any/everything to do with OU football. I follow recruiting because I want to know what the future of the program will look like and once a kid starts to contribute, it's nice to know something about him. It's also a good way to get through the off-season.

I've been following recruiting since before the internet. Having all of the information available online has been great, but it can also be misleading...but I digress.

My interest in recruiting ends with research. I have never/will never contact a recruit in person. To me, that's just crazy (unless your the same age as the guy, or know him). I see a lot of that going on, and much of it is harmless, but some of it is not. There are definitely people out there that take it to the extreme.

I can see yer Points, I just dont have that curiosity level i guess.
These Kids Make a verbal an everyone gets excited then he decommits and every ones sad then he makes a Verbal to another skool and every one there gets all happy pants.

Or we land a 5 star and he fizzles out in the off season never to be seen or heard from again,

To each his own I reckon.:fox:

I never get worked up either way. It makes me happy when a kid commits (especially if he's a highly regarded player), but I don't get bent out of shape when they de-commit, or end up elsewhere.

They're 18 year old kids with the attention span of a fly. I don't lose sleep if they change their mind. Some folks do though, and I don't understand that behavior.

...because we're looking for the next AD, or Boz, or Bradford or Dupree. Before they were stars, they were.....RECRUITS! Hope springs eternal.

Natural part of the process.

that alabama fan that got ahold of the cell number of an auburn commit this year comes to mind.

We got enough talent, combined with the players already on the team, to perform at a championship level, if the coaching is also there.

I was watching the "top 15 wildest signing day videos of all time" yesterday. I recognized one kid. Jimmy Clausen.

So... Where are those prima donnas now? Some kids peak in HS and their attitudes go along with it. I'm sorry that we missed out on that O lineman from Oklahoma though.
