How about some names(proof) smazza

[BullsFanInTX]

USF is outrecruiting USC in California!!!

The Devil Rays will win the 06 World Series!!!

The Buccaneers will be signing me to be Chris Simms' replacement!!!

oh, wait, I don't have any hard stats to back up these claims.  Never mind.

Statements mean nothing unless they are backed up with data and statistics.  Where are they.  And don't give us some 4 star player a BE team snatched out of FL as proof.  Give us names and college stats of players taken from FL by these schools who have panned out big time (in college play, not HS) above our top tier players recruited in Fl.  If you can.  For example I give you Matt Grothe, you know the stats.  Now you give me one QB recruited  out of FL by these schools that has topped MG.  If you can, then they out recruited us in FL at the QB position.  If you can't we outrecruited them in FL.  Grothe is just an example, we can talk individual RBs, WRs, LBs, DBs, whatever.

We're waiting...

Hey guys, I know you all have green and gold goggles on, but the facts are that the better players in the stare are choosing to go to WV, UL, and Pitt, and Rutgers is starting to get in the action too.  Just because you dislike smazza and are blinded by USF's "greatness" doesn't mean you have the right to call out a guy because he disagrees with your opinions.

Let's hope our top rated recruits out of Florida can handle UNC saturday, they couldn't handle Kansas.

It is one thing to disagree with OPINIONS.....It is another to make an ASSERTION OF FACT and not back it up. And we have the right to call out whomever we want, whenever we want.

...

USF CANT OUTRECRUIT RUTGERS,UL,WV OR PITT IN FLORIDA...

For whatever these subjective rankings are worth, here's one example that smazz, et al, doesn't know what the hell they're talking about .... UL is the only one who, on paper, appeared to out recruit us last year...

I don't really think much of smazza's opinions, but here are some names:

Anthony Allen - RB at Louisville

Chris Duvalt - CB at Illinois

Thaddeus Lewis - QB Duke

Tim Brown - WR at Rutgers

Now some of them we may have missed out on for various reasons: Lewis wanted  a Duke education, Brown is a 5'7" WR whereas we usually recruit much larger receivers.  Point is, we have not yet put the lockdown on Florida where kids see us as right behind the Big 3.  If a kid wanted to go to UF his whole life, he's going there regardless of what we do.  However, the Pitts, NC States etc need to be shut down in Florida.

But remember folks(my S.Bein impression)   that USF AND other schools only get about 25 signees a year ... there are MANY more HS kids each year.

ET, did you fall down and bump your head ?  What in heavens name where you thinking ?  Asking smazza to back up one(many)(thousands) of silly posts he makes with facts. Opps -10-13  got it.

[SANJAY]

Fonua and McCaskill will be here in the spring right?  Fonua for sure.

ET, can you take your personal vendetta against smazza somewhere else?  Your cluttering this board with posts in a vain attempt to embarass smazza.  If you disagree with him, do so in the relevant thread or call him out in the Mad Cow Lounge.  Please don't keep posting your petty arguments over old topics in new threads.

So where can we have smazza take his personal vendetta against CJL so he doesn't keep posting his petty arguments over old topics in new threads?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated ...

[E.T.]

Hmmm ... we are talking about USF Football ... yup, correct thead.  8-)

And posting his own quote is a vendetta ?  :-/

If you want to defend him, defend him by posting facts to back up his statement. Let's keep this about USF football or post your thoughts on the Mad Cow  

;D
