And no, Freeman was definitely hired to be an elite recruiter. There was no other reason to offer him the job. If hiring Fickell meant blowing up the ‘22 class, that would’ve been the right move, if Freeman doesn’t pick it up. He really should be ashamed at this Defensive class.

        It's a question not a statement, hence the ? at the end. [NT] - Rocketman84 - 5:20am 5/24/23
        Hence the ?? Mark does not make it a question. You're inferring my thought. - Frankx - 11:53am 5/24/23

        One of the most ridiculous comments I've heard! MOST 5* players can't pass a basic Math test?? - Rocketman84 - 4:04pm 5/23/23

        55-60% of the Top 100 guys can get in academically, then it's about fit! - Rocketman84 - 6:32pm 5/23/23
        Academic restrictions aren’t irrelevant - NDIrish1988 - 7:34pm 5/23/23
        Agreed! Not irrelevant but now its a "crutch" the fan base has gotten used to spewing every other ye [LINK] - Rocketman84 - 8:36pm 5/23/23
