2014 ESPN Recruit Analysis

[Cackalacky]

I was just watching a video on the ESPN CFB App so I don't have a link, but they said that it was a down year overall for DL and QB and kind of an up year for RB and WR but that there is not a clear cut #1 guy right now. They would have to spend a lot of time really watching guys this year as compared to the last few where the top guys really stood out.

I wonder if Kelly is seeing the same thing and is similarly taking his time in choosing recruits to go after, which might explain he slow play on Hood, and others.....

I believe you are on to something. It also has a lot to do with that this class is going to be smaller in size so i think overall ND is going to be picky on who they take

I thought I read that was the consensus on him and possibly why we have not spoken with his parents even though he is high on us. I apologize.

Anyway, we may be in for a long recruiting cycle this year if the ESPN guys are having a are time evaluating (I know its ESPN, but still).

To hell with ESPN, it's all about 24/7 baby!

The BOLD says everything you need to know about ESPN CFB recruiting quality. Oh, they have to actually watch people this year..... POS... I'll even take Scout over ESPN.
