This really should be up there with the Gus Malzahn thread for "Thread of the Year."

This thread should be titled "Poor Grammar".

I'll engage this only because I assume you won't be around here for very long. If you're not a troll or blindly enraged, you would have known that one of Kelly's biggest criticisms was his ability to recruit nationally and for high level recruits. That was squelched pretty quickly. Top 15 recruiting class in year 1. Top 10 recruiting class last year. Even if you think ranking systems are actually good, you should be impressed by that. Weis had one huge year, and everyone assumes he was an expert recruiter. This is the kind of **** that annoys the hell out of me. Unintelligent, mindless ranting that accomplishes nothing, adds jack **** to the conversation, and irritates the level-headed fans.

Grow up. I hope you were neither a) born in 1959 or b) graduated in 1959.

Oh, we are dignifying this with responses? Look, even if this guy is serious he should be banned.

If you're aren't at least *this* tall, you can't ride the ride. Sorry.

Sadly, I don't think this guy is trolling.

I agree.. and we shouldn't be so quick to hang the poor guy. A lot of us on here are heavily entrenched in the recruiting process. We watch and evaluate the videos, follow twitter comments, read local articles, weigh offer lists, watch 7on7s.. etc etc.

Well, a lot of people are just star gazers.. including this guy. Thats all it is. Dont worry Irish Mike, BK is getting 10x the athlete he ever dreamed of at getting Cincy and this staff will develop one hell of a program in due time.

But if you are a troll... Go **** Yourself.

Kelly is building quality and (more importantly) depth at the positions that need it the most- IN THE TRENCHES!!!

WTF? It's obvious that you're oblivious to what goes on in cfb recruiting; particularly Irish recruiting! Have you even followed the recruiting forum since Kelly was hired? Evidently that would be a big NO!

I actually kinda agree with they guy..........in a small way. Even though I don't really get the "star" ratings, they do kinda matter in the longrun, and we do have a lot of "3" star prospects. But in the longrun as well, Brady Quinn was a 3 star and so was Zibby I believe. Anyway, I get where he's coming from......BUT the 3 star guys seem to always be the diamonds in the rough. We'll see though.

Good Lord, NDOM, are you griping just to be griping? Alabama's CURRENT verbal commitments list TEN three-stars on Rivals. I shouldn't bother. I know now that you just like to stir pots, and I fell for it. But it's a poor way to live.

Pretty harsh comments in this thread....

You all know the casual fan doesn't follow recruiting, so although the OPs comments are way off base, this could have been a good teaching moment for him, instead of a zombie mob flesh-grabbing feeding frenzy.

If the guy is serious and not trolling, he still shouldn't come here with the "Kelly sucks at recruiting!!!" nonsense if he really doesn't have a clue about the topic. If you're interested or curious and you don't follow recruiting that closely, why not ASK people that DO follow it their opinion, rather than go on a ridiculous rant that makes you look like a jackass?
