    ^ Well I guess we can partially thank Jimbo & Frost for Kirby--we look a little more stable than either FSU or UCF. Hope he'll be able to size up a little at DE but his athleticism sounds great, glad to have him and glad he's eager to get started.

    Kirby is already at 245.

    Boyles is the one who needs to size up more to play DE, since his is only 225. He could move to LB, which he also played in HS.

    These 5 players have all said they will enroll early at USF:

    Brian Norris
    Stacy Kirby
    Antonio Grier
    Trent Schneider
    Dwayne Boyles
     
    There could be others.
     
    Someone with access can check to see which of them are already enrolled at USF for the spring semester.
     
    I suspect that USF Football will eventually issue an official release on them.

    There is no analysis or mystery. I said I have a feeling and that's just it.

     

    By the way, check whom all didn't vote USF into the top 25 and you'll understand my ill feelings.

    You make a fair point.

    There are 24 voters who did not have USF in their top 25.

    Obviously, not all of them will put USF in their final 25 just for beating TT in a bowl game. Some will prefer to add other teams instead.

    However, let's just say that all 24 of them voted USF #25 that would only be worth a total of 24 points.

    ucf National Champs

    UCF national champs? Florida lawmakers could declare it so

    Florida lawmakers are being asked to take action the College Football Playoff Committee won’t: Declare UCF national champions.

    Kevin Cate, a Democratic consultant and Auburn University graduate, tweeted this week that lawmakers should consider a resolution declaring UCF national champions after it knocked off Auburn 34-27 in the Peach Bowl on New Year’s Day.

    On Twitter, the idea gained support from Rep.Amber Mariano, R-Dunedin, a UCF graduate; Rep. Kionne McGhee, D-Miami; and Sen. Oscar Branyon II, D-Miami Gardens.

    Surprise, surprise that FSU and UF legislators are not interested in doing that. LOL

    “I vote HELL YES,” wrote UCF graduate Piccolo in an email. “The Gators and Seminoles here [in Tallahassee] are not keen on it. But I am still working on them.”

    I'm not sure we'll even be ranked. The problem is that so many people don't have us in their top 25 to begin with. Then you factor in the win's from Money5 teams and the backlash coming toward us for UCF's comments and wate'll be hard pressed to be ranked. I just feel it in my gut and hope I am truly wrong.

    I could see us falling to #25 at worst, because we won our bowl game against B 12 TT.

    Our two (close) losses came from Houston and UCF.

    Since TT beat Houston, that loss is somewhat now diminished.

    #10 UCF beat #7 Auburn and they will likely finish in the top 8 which will make our loss to them look even better.

    I don't know why you think there will be a backlash to USF because of comments made by UCF regarding the unfairness of the CFP which had them ranked #12.

    There was only one behind us who was ranked. The receiving votes winners had 4 to 5 losses so I think we are safe with three spots to 20. Could be 21 or 19 too.

    I think you have to take more into account the large disparity in points between us and those ahead and also the teams they played.

    19 Mem 475 L 

    20  NW 398 W

    21 Wash St 342 L to ranked #18 MSU 

    22 VT 323 L to ranked #17 OKL St. 

    23 USF 115 W over Tech Tech

    24 Miss St 103 W over Louisville RVs

    25 Boise 59 W over Oregon 

    RV NC St 54 W Ariz St

    http://www.espn.com/college-football/rankings/_/poll/1/week/15/year/2017/seasontype/2

    It's not easy to pick up so many additional points needed to jump over many teams by beating TT.

    Miss St will likely jump over us with their victory over UL

    Memphis (with their one point loss to Iowa state) might still be ahead of USF because they are currently 360 points in front.

    So, I think USF finishing at #22 or even #23 is more likely.

    Yeah I had that argumesnt a few years ago this board and lost...like now. The recruiting board has little discussion and all that is there is just a long list. It seemed this lossend up a little during the national signing days though. 

    The rule here has been that once a player is signed he becomes a topic for discussion on this board, if someone wants to post about him here which could have a bearing on next year's team. 

    Sometimes, it just makes sense to still post new info on him in his recruiting thread, because it provides more context, such as him playing in some post season HS all-star game.

    It's easier to search a recruits name on that board to find his main thread.

    IMO, it's good to have a recruiting board separate from the main board.

    Keep in mind that this is not a paid recruiting site and people just glean info from open sources.

    Those who want more info on recruiting can always go to one of the pay sites. We try not to use premium info or links to premium articles.
