Good video on Rodney Adams. Tough story with his Mom but his Dad seems like a great parent. This is a good recruiting piece. Inspiring.

They should have him sit down with the next couple recruiting classes and explain why it's a waste of their time going to the middle of nowhere to play football when they've got a legit program in their backyard.

I like that his Grandmother brings up that point about being at all of his games.

Eh...I get why that's a factor for some kids, but for many, leaving town for college is part of the experience. I'm biased because I want them to come here, but if they want to get away from home for 4 years, that's cool. I left home to play baseball and it was awesome for me. I had no illusions about going pro, but it was a chance to move away from home and play for a few more years for free.

I agree it probably largely depends on your goals. If your goal is just to get some different life experiences and a decent degree, considerations change. I don't think that's what at the front of most recruits' minds though.

  • 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

    "I wish you guys could be in the locker room and be on the practice field because it is so much different from what it has been in the past."
