How did I guess it was DBP? LOL

Looks like Toal has the Ironmen armed and ready again.

Last year Don Bosco played Mission Viejo and Miami Central before their league started. Do they have any national powers on their schedule this year?

I was actually going to post about him wondering why we weren't involved, but then I saw he was class of 2015 not 2016. I REALLY hope Tillery sticks, but if he doesn't, I wouldn't mind jumping in on Mirko's recruitment.

I don't really know as Ironman and #1 Irish follow Bosco. My school played DBP a few years back so that's why I know a little about them. I do think, but don't quote me, that they have STA on their schedule again this year. Say what they want, DBP usually plays a mean schedule every year.

Texas Longhorns recruiting: The news is almost all bad - Burnt Orange Nation

For all the drama we had this week, we're in way better shape than Texas. Charlie has a ton of work to do if he's going to right that ship, but I wouldn't mind if he waited until the 2nd game of 2015 to do it.

Any staff who recruits a guy with options like this probably knows it's a possibility, but still has to mess up their plan a bit.

Could the 2015 Ohio State recruiting class be the smallest in-state ever? - Land-Grant Holy Land

Ohio State's 2015 recruiting class took a bit of an unexpected twist yesterday afternoon when four-star LB Sh'mar Kilby-Lane elected to commit to in-state Florida State over the Buckeyes. Kilby-Lane had long been considered almost a sure thing to end up donning the scarlet and gray, and though higher profile linebacker targets like Justin Hilliard and Jerome Baker remain very much still in play, Mark Pantoni, Urban Meyer, and company may have no choice but to move on to plan B for a third linebacker in the class.

Wonder if this makes them any less appealing to Hilliard and Cornell. Probably not, but it's still good to see them miss on their guys.

No idea how many CBs they're taking, but I wonder if this has any impact on Reid's recruitment.

Wonder if this helps us with Reid; or portends him moving our way, in the first place?

I didn't know where to put this. Sorry.

Re: who has the best backfield argument from a few months ago. JC just did a piece on the best RB duos.

1. Gurley/Marshall UGA
2. Marshall/Tyner Oregon
3. Yeldon/Henry Bama
4. Gordon/Clement Wisconsin
5. Langford/Hill MSU

Folston/Bryant got honorable mention, along with 12 other duos.

Todd Gurley, Keith Marshall lead the country's best duos

Edit: Sorry, I should have put the team names.
