Agreed. We have the edge in playing time, but Strong is no slouch as a coach and they're going to win, get exposure, and Papa John's is a kick ass OCS. And kids can find/avoid trouble anywhere. That's a moot point.

If he picked Miami, he clearly is showing that he wants to be on a team that wins at any cost, not that he wants to show case his skills.  

 

I have never seen the Louisville campus, but I guess I would have to say it probably is nice.

 

Campus = Tie

Strength of Schedule = USF

Coaching = Tie maybe edge to Louisville because of head coach experience but overall staff I think it is a tie

Stadium = lean USF (Pro stadium)

Opportunity to change team and stand out = USF

Education = Louisville depending upon his major (reputation)

RB's on roster = USF has openings where at Louisville he will be pushing someone out or to a new position if they want to play

Playing time = USF

Overall impact on Team = USF

 

Other factors

Getting into trouble = Louisville

 Wow, this is some crazy homerism.

 

Campus=UL (I've been there)

Coaching=UL (Taggs hasn't coached 1 game yet and Strong is a proven winner)

Stadium=UL (Papa Johns is an amazing OCS)

Getting into trouble=tie (Kids get into trouble at every school)

 

Everything else I'd agree with.

 

Been to the 'Ville twice, i'd say USF is nicer.  But their stadium is very nice and they have Churchill Downs right next to campus.

What is more important to a recruit/ player? An OCS with mediocre practice and workout facilities or first class practice and workout facilities?

If it was me and i had to choose between the two, i could care less where j play. Once you hit the field it is 100 yards long wether it is a pee wee field or an NFL stadium. I would want the best possible practice and worlout facilities. That is where you spend 99% of your time throughout the year.

OCS is more a thing for fans. Of course playing in front of a full or empty stadium is a different question.

You do realize they also have a better practice facility than us, right?

Who?  I was making a general statement.  Not about any particular team.

According to Louisville Courier Journal, Dyer is in Louisville's registrar database. Although has not officially enrolled yet. Can't post link off phone.

saw that

 

i'm sure hes in our DB as well. I'm guessing he'd have to be there upon application. I'm sure he's applied to a number of schools.

Its over. Lets evaluate RBs who are here. 

 

Mccray, Tice, Swanson: Pass protection liabilities

Shaw: size wise is a pass protection liability

Pierre: Non factor

W. Davis: Will he get a carry. Thought I saw flashes on his few carries but he may never see the field.

Maybe we see very basic passing formations this year to help fresmen out.

Oh, well...we didn't have him, so we didn't lose him.

 

Would be curious to see if someone can check with USF's registrar to see if he's there, just for grins.

    "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."
