How old is Hopkins? If he is 25+ using the word grind he is a bigger tool than I originally thought.

Unbelievable:

Check out @JHopkins247's Tweet: https://twitter.com/JHopkins247/status/474366359938158592

"Less than that. That's what happens when you grind."

No shame. Totally trolling now.

Really not surprised by this. This is not good to see because I believe that he would be Better then any qb we have on the roster. That's why kids should have a time line before they can commit.

Some of these recruiting guys are kind of creepy. Seem to be big time jock sniffers that get off hanging around big time high school football players.

Lol, he didn't even come close to getting what Keith's sarcasm was about.

They do, it's called National Signing Day. A verbal commitment isn't anything, really. It's just a kid saying "I'm going there." You can't restrict that.

If I was a 247 member I would immediately cancel my subscription because of this asshat. But since I refuse to pay 1 penny for articles that have basically the same quotes like
"my number 1 priority is education" - Then they choose Mississippi
"This offer definitely puts them towards the top of my list" Then they never make plans to visit

I never have to worry about canceling any subscriptions.

by asshat I mean Hopkins

ND seems to take it up the ass in recruiting by playing nice. Sometimes I wish we had a Tosh or Orgeron to fight fire with fire.

This is the stupidest thing I have read on this site...ever. Go check the class rankings since Weis and Kelly. Recruiting despite what all the negative nancy boys might say has not been much of a problem.

I submitted a request to cancel last night and my reasoning was I couldn't justify paying money to watch an "expert" gloat about steering a high school kid to his favorite team. Got an email about 15 minutes ago saying my request was fulfilled and that they hope to see me back as a subscriber soon, without addressing anything else I said.

Wow. Hopkins is a fucking recruiting journalism ninja!

Sucks. But as others have said, feels like something must have gone deeply awry for Barnett to flip this quick. Distance and competition were always there. Stay in touch, but go offer Waller.

It's actually not that stupid.
