Is Brown good enough to take a program like WVU, and be able to compete with an Oklahoma and stay above the lesser surging Texas?
Our Holgorsen teams never had an identity.
The only thing I know Brown will do is bring an identity to this program.
I’d argue that’s the first and most important part of an elite program. When kids see that identity on Saturday’s, I believe the right players will find us as much as we’ll find them.
Maybe...
But WV needs players like this.
The #2 RB in Texas. Already an OU commit.
All likelihood Texas will be getting #1 who is the #1 player in the country according to the composite.
This is against high level competition.
Most of these schools have a few college level players
Texas Texas. Nobody cares about Texas.
Question Was can WVU get there. Not what Texas and dip wad are doing. It's a simple question. Answer yes and why. Not Texas can do this, this and this.

We have before. We should be able to recruit in top 25 every year. Top 10 is a whole different ball game.
I dont know where Oklahoma and Texas finish in recruiting but I assume it is high.
We rarely have true talent advantage over anyone in the league except Kansas, ISU and maybe Kansas St.
Where do we normally finish in recruiting? Whats typical for us.
Avg is mid 30's or higher 30's. Dana was slipping into the 50's for a couple years.
Ive always assumed once you get out of the top 10 - 20, its most parity from 20 - 40, but I don't follow it and dont know that.
But it seems the teams who recruit well every year have good teams, with some exceptions....
Can be true yes. But many high recruits don't pan out. WVU has had some 4 and 5 star players that never made it.

Dana recruited at a higher level than anyone
But those consecutive years in the 30's should become 20's
I think WV needs more hybrids players like Osita Smith.
Truthfully WV needs three Osita Smiths
One to play LB, one to play S and one to play WR.
These hybrid players that are 6-2 200-225 are what is needed
Perfect examples are Grant Delpit LSU and BJ Foster from Texas.
I get what you are saying. I have always felt WVU should look for the best athlete available, a guy who plays big on the field, but may not have all the physical measurements. Get the talent in the program, start winning more consistently, and translate the wins into improving recruiting. Not an original concept. If your best available lineman is only 6 feet tall but has 4 star talent, go after him.
What about Blake Carringer?
Did WV offer. Has offers from Bama, Florida and Georgia.
The guy is a beast. 6-6 310.
You mean the fake persona that some students made up?
The one Rivals automatically gave a three star ranking to without a shred of evidence? No highlight tape? Nothing...
When will folks realize this star shit is nothing more than a ploy to get your money. These dipshits couldn't find a supermodel at a fat farm. Just goes to show you how gullible some people truly are.
Oh yeah, I guess you'll need proof
Kid messed up by putting Bama.
The recruiting directors in the area became interested.
3 star is a placeholder until they get additional info.
Video, watching the recruit or camps.
A lot of these people put in Long hours and evaluate football players a lot more than coaches...
Look at Syracuse get fooled...I Googled him and found it

You got played....
You're just an addict who needs a fix.
I found out about this after the fact on the SECrant....
I know Texas had this kid who acted he committed and no one heard of him
Tucker Green. Think he Twitter is gone.
He was funny. He trolled the kicker who committed to USC....
So this person does not exist?
Are you a clown?

He does.....

Have you checked out Marcellus Shale?
6'5 310 Beast outta WV....built like rock.
All bullshit aside...
You know the most important trait for an OL.
SAT/ACT score.
Everyone thinks you want smart QBs and a bunch of dumb big guys blocking for him
But because OL have to work as a team and apply what they know.
An aptitude test is a great away to decide on OL if they are near the same size
All bullshit aside, the most important trait for an OL is actually being a real person...move on clown.
That is about leverage...
Knowing where to apply force.
Something that someone who works at their craft is skilled at.
Why a lot of great OL also wrestled in high school
