55 confidence is the lowest rating I've ever seen. I didn't know it went lower than 60.

BMunson's confidence rating for Thomas to Nebraska was also 55. If you look at the first webpage of recent RPMs there is a 50. There are a fair number of 55s in the last week. There was a 45 6 days ago (a Florida writer on Guervil going to Florida - he just committed there yesterday I believe). 60 appears to be the most common RPM.

Alabama might be in their Solich years but they're not recruiting like it.

They have moved on to the Callahan years.
Wife is a Bama fan, so I follow pretty closely. I don't think there's gonna be a drop off. I think what we saw last year was the end of Saban being done with football and where he left the team.
DeBoer is a winner, and his biggest knock was his inability to recruit with the 59th and 29th classes. He's not showing that at all and if he recruits like he has the last 2-years and fields teams like Washington they're going to be good.

The Alabama's and Georgia's are on a different level, they won't accept mediocrity for very long. If DeBoer can't get it done right quick they will find someone who will.

I'm hoping we had to drop out of the bidding because of the deal we are finalizing with Sone.

Did they though? I thought recruiting became very suspect immediately. I remember right away Solich started taking reaches from instate. Maybe to be fair a lot of the development of players started sliding downhill too so hard to say. I know 1998 had Keyou Craver and DeJuan Groce who were super stars but after them if you look at the careers and production of that class its pretty yikes. Randy Stella could have been great but...you know..issues.
1999 Had Fonoti and Garrison. The rest was very average to below average. I don't count Jamal Lord but you might. This is that class that had Patrick Kabongo and Dan Waldrop 🤢

At some point we’re going to need to figure out a more aggressive plan. Texas Tech is finding extra NIL money through taking away from women’s softball. We keep losing and the thought is that the most desperate set the market however aren’t we seriously in need of a ton of blue chips to try to half way catch our “peers”?

Dean probably knows but couldn't say anything at the time because it was a fluid situation. ☠️

That's the kind of dedication I'm looking for. Rhonda, I know you have a good team but your going to have to fuck off because we're going to make a run in football.
That’s just not true. Tech just threw another 7 figure deal at the top softball player in the country for her to return. They have money all over the place because they have a billionaire running and committed to their NIL collective.
Nebraska just doesn’t have the depth or top end boosters some of these other programs have.

Well, we will find out quickly whether the NIL clearinghouse works as intended or not. They’ve made it clear that NIL has to have a business purpose and needs to be in line with market value for the services, but Tech is still using it as pay to play.
