Does anyone think Spurrier will even talk to Garcia about this? Stephen Garcia, a highly recruited Tampa, FL QB, who committed to, and has already enrolled at South Carolina, had a really good time on Friday night, that is until he was caught by the Columbia police. I guess the ole ball coach...

100 Reasons Why ESPN Sucks!!! This was probably posted here before, but I am so sick of hearing about Tim Hardaway and the oh so predictable positions taken on the subject that I thought I'd link it again. Besides, there is now reason #101 (at least) and its' name is Doug Gottlieb. For those...

I see that you Indiana boys are getting hit with some more snow. In an extremely unusual turn of events, (no doubt due to Global Warming:wink:) we in Southern New England have been very fortunate this winter to have thus far avoided any measurable snow fall. However, the weather gods are telling...

Who is a ND Football Fan? Let me preface this question by saying that this is not a religious, scientific, political, or moral question, and I respectfully request that all of the scientists and philosophers out there not hijack this thread, and try to turn it into one. This is simply one...

It turns out that Chris and Greg Little’s defections were 2 out of only 5 such actions taken by Consensus Top 100 recruits on NSD. The other three were Antwane Greenlee from Georgia to FSU, Robert Elliott from Ole Miss to Mississippi State, and Jeremy Finch from Indiana to Florida. All of these...

Jerimy Finch, the Indianapolis safety, has de-committed once again, this time from Indiana to Florida. So Urban now has enemies all over the state of Indiana. Finch has been an interesting story, and although he is obviously a great athlete, I am glad that Urban is getting him because his track...

Just in time to coincide with the Envied One's latest post here is Question #7. I swear this wasn't planned. All 168 of the 179 recruits on the QIR 179 that have verbally committed have committed to either Notre Dame, or a school that belongs to the 6 major BCS conferences. List in order from...

After #5, this is going to be a breeze. This is what Richard Dawson (does anyone remember Richard Dawson?) used to call a toss-up question. 168 of the 179 recruits on the QIR 179 have now verbally committed to 45 different schools. How many of those 168 recruits have committed to a school other...

How parochial are Southeastern U.S. High School Athletes in determining what college they go to, or should the question be how successful are the coaches in that region in keeping arguably the best talent in the country at home. 46% of the recruits from the QIR 179 come from this region, and...

Ok, this one is going to be a little bit tougher. The QIR 179 recruits come from 32 different states (listed below), and the District of Columbia. Among these 32 states which state had the highest per capita # of recruits, and which state had the lowest per capita # of recruits. The per capita...

Tim Tebow’s successor as Florida’s Mr. Football is one of the 23 recruits from the state of Florida listed in the QIR 179. What is his name and what is his in-state consensus rank (1-23) among the Florida recruits. The QIR 179 listing at this link...

The University of Texas has 11 recruits listed at least once in the Top 100 of the five recruiting boards. How many of those 11 recruits are from the state of Texas. The 11 recruits are shown in the QIR 179 listing at this link...

Name the Notre Dame recruit who is one of only 2 Consensus Top 50 recruits who are not in the Rivals 100. The consensus listing is at this link: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pAaiTNNa6ngffyHt3_9A5Pg&output=html&gid=1&single=true First correct answer will receive a $25,000 vBucks...

In order to make the last 3 days of the recruiting cycle even more interesting, I am going to run a “Fun Facts” trivia contest on the 179 High School seniors who are listed as Top 100 recruits at least once on the five major recruiting boards. There will be a separate contest today, tomorrow...

Is the Reggie Bush investigation finally beginning to negatively impact USC recruiting? The surprising commitment to Michigan of Long Beach Poly elite CB, Donovan Warren, is starting to create rumbles that this may be true. Warren is a huge upset pickup for Michigan, and his commitment has to...

Ronald Johnson has apparently cancelled a scheduled in home visit with the Michigan coaching staff ahead of his planned Sunday announcement as to his college choice. This has sent Wolverine nation into deep mourning as they are taking it as a signal that the #1 High School player in their state...

The hot rumor in Miami is that the Philadelphia Eagles plan on trading Donovan McNabb to Detroit for the Lions first round pick, which the Eagles then plan on using to draft Brady Quinn, I kid you not. The rumor is real, follow the link, whether there is any substance to it seems highly...

Brian Smith’s welcome commitment to ND last night ended a dismal 7 day period in ND recruiting since the Robert Hughes announcement. The other good news that comes with the commit of Brian is that the Irish now once again have 11 recruits in the ESPN 150, which ties them for the most on the list...

With only a week left until National Signing Day one of the nation's top recruits, Noel Devine, who is still uncommitted, is still not academically eligible to sign a letter of intent. Florida’s top rated overall recruit, Torrey Davis, is apparently in the same boat, at least as of last week...

Maybe Les Miles & Kirk Ferentz are right? Les Miles, the head football coach at LSU has a policy in place that once a prospect pledges the Tigers, they are not to take any additional visits. Luther Davis, until recently an LSU recruit, tried to bypass this policy by surreptitiously slipping...
