who ever did the yardage on that cookie cake needs to be fired lol

This. A cookie cake is a nice thought but the decorating looks rushed. Obviously, a recruit isn't gonna say "Yeah, in the end I choose Kansas over USF because the cake was fugly." However, it seems to be Athletics' MO to do things on the cheap and easy. They need to hire a full time event coordinator or someone with experience in the high-end hospitality industry whose only job is to make sure everything is perfect. You give a kid a lopsided cake and spell his name wrong on his nametag or something and he starts to wonder how bad you actually want him and thinks back to how well everything went at his visit to that big time school.

I'm probably being dramatic about it, but it's all in the details; these kids are the bread and butter of our athletic department so they need to be treated like royalty, at least until you get them on the practice fields in the fall and break 'em down.

I will be surprised if he doesn't commit to us after reading some of his tweets.

And this year's banquet winner- Marvin Floss, with an engraved trophy to match.

You are being dramatic. A cake is inconsequential in the grand scheme of the recruit's visit.

@DWard75_

Raymond James seem like it would be crazy on game day dawg

6:04pm - 13 Dec 13

Sounds like he is liking it so far. Hope Taggart can bring him in and whip him into shape, because I haven't heard great things about his discipline and drive. We need serious help at this position.

Wow, your worried about it but the coaching staff isn't. Hmmm which way will I lean???? Maybe a link would be appropriate here?

Settle down chief. I also hope the coaching staff knows something we don't... just saying that this guy doesn't have a rep for hard work. You'll have to take my word for what it's worth to you - which is obviously not much.

Sounds like scuttlebutt. Weinke would have warnred Taggs off if there was something to worry about. Last thing I;m worried about is a Taggart coached kid work ethic.

It's exactly scuttlebutt - doesn't mean it's false. Ever think that there might be a reason he is on his third team in as many years?

Anyway... like you, I hope that Taggart can iron out whatever flaws our guys may have.

  • Quotes

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
