Kiss it goodbye and recruit Florida where Frost is a known name. Hit New Jersey hard, we’ve had success there and reestablish our footprint in Texas. We will be fine as long as we win.

Yes, don't blame Gebbia's dad for being concerned but we can't make a coaching decision over it, Cali is a big state we've always recruited and it won't go away because of a couple pissed guys. It does seem like the relationship to Williams is stronger than the relationship to Riley, and it's possible that Williams could stick around with a coaching change. If his buddy stays on staff this Hawkins guy probably suddenly becomes a Frost fan.
In terms of recruiting if we would manage to get Frost I think he would create a lot of excitement that would even-out what's lost from Riley. Maybe we could get in late with guys currently not on our radar like a good dual-threat qb and/or some JUCO help. If Riley had hit the JUCO's we wouldn't be struggling so much right now. If it's not Frost it's hard to say, will depend obviously on the hire and who he hires.

Now that Lee is taking care of the ball we should win this one. We have had two weeks to prep and even more importantly get ourselves healthy. They're a better team than the Rutgers score implies, pissed that one down their legs, but their O just has not been very good in conference play. Their D is fairly solid.
Both teams will be hungry for a win. I think this one goes down to the wire with us batting-down a Hail Mary at the end. Riley's seat won't cool-off but he'll still have one.

I love this...all of a sudden parents are worried to send their kids off to college because a different state is "so different"
99% of parents can't f'ing wait to get their 17-18 year old of the house and off to college...any college. Especially if it is going to be free.

Mark Richt, Scott Frost, Justin Fuentes etc say hello.....That's an excuse.
We took a 4* safety moved to CB, Kalu to safety....Only Injuries allowed Decker and Jaimes to start.....OZ basically missing, jut recently, after 7 games realizing we need to get the TE's in the game. That's incompetent coaching, roster management and development.

When Frost comes in, he'll replace the Calibraska connection to all the weak-willed granola eaters and potheads with a new pipeline to the inspired and motivated West Coast talent.

Well, his dad is rich and used to a different lifestyle than your average Midwest American.

I agree, but I think it is easier to poach top Cali kids than top FL and TX kids. The football pride in those states is very high and the local teams are hard to beat.

Maybe its just me, but I don't get the sh!tting on all CA players and/or recruiting of CA players. We have got a lot of good CA players going back a long ways.
A pipeline to any recruiting hotbed is a good thing, be it CA, TX, FL or OH.
And looking at Mav's chart of CA players, they seem to turn out at about the same rate as all of our other recruits.

True, plus there are WAY more top programs involved in pulling recruits from the east and southeast. Lots more mouths at the trough. NE and OK have traditionally done relatively well in TX and CA.
I remember an analysis and article of this done by Brandon Cavanaugh IIRC. Can't find it, though.
