You might be reading what I'm saying....but you aren't UNDERSTANDING what I'm saying. There is a really big difference.
If held to the 28-rule, we wouldn't have sent out the paper work to EVERYONE automatically. We would have held off the ones to the lower rated players in hopes of getting the better ones.
once again.....Us = waiting to send papers to lower recruits until the big recruits sign.
This is my point and is what you're having such a hard time understanding. You're idea of probability in this would only apply if Nutt blindly sent out 100 papers to random numbers.
You didn't need those kickers? You would have gotten rid of every db or athlete outside of that juco kid Hornsby?
Nutt would have solely selected on stars? Not necessity for the team? Find that hard to believe.

The kicker greyshirted. We could have just as easily asked him to walk-on.
And don't forget....we would have been limited to 28. rivals/scout take the top 20/25. That means the kickers and a few lower rated needs guys still wouldn't have been counted. That's 3/8 spots we could use and not count against our ranking. We could have signed a 3/8 1-legged retarded midgets in those spots and they still wouldn't have counted towards our rankings.

yeah but you can only pick and choose in retrospect.
And I'm calling bullshite that under the current guidelines and having a similar situation, Nutt would have allowed nearly ten guys not receive papers after having been committed for an extended period. Would have worked PR wonders.

Under current guidelines, we would have informed those other recruits that we are holding spots for a certain number of athletes that we're waiting for.
We just turned down a 4-star Juco commit with 3 years to play 3 because we are currently after 2 HS 4-stars at the same position.
What makes you think we wouldn't turn down a commitment from a 2-star?

When you state this it's as if you're assuming the first guys committed were the highest ranked players. I realize that you will say something about rankings are judged based on who signed but that's not the point either.

After he's been committed for months and never informing him just not sending him a letter to sign on signing day because Patterson committed instead?

So you actually never even read what I just posted and you quoted. Seriously...read it....and read it again.

So why did you oversign that year?

Are you really asking this question? Do you know what the difference is then and now? You know....the reason why we can't do that now?
Now think about it....that reason wasn't there back then. I could have easily answered your question with one word....but I'd like to see if you have any shred of logical thinking.

So you would have told 9 committed players that they may be able to sign with OM on signing day?
You said "turned down." As in he wanted to commit but couldn't or he was committed and told to look elsewhere?

No....we would have told them that we wouldn't be able to honor their commitment at the time but that we would keep in touch.

as in he committed to us but we told him we were after two other players and told him to look elsewhere. He's now currently committed to TN.

I've got to give you credit. Judging you by your posts throughout this thread, I would have never guessed that you would have had the mental capacity to make a rhetorical question.

For nine players? haha

Yes. SEC rules don't say we have to honor commitments. They aren't going to force us to sign 9 crappy players because of "1st come, 1st serve"
ETA: and I'm not referring to telling them this on signing day. I'm talking about the day that they want to commit.

Not shocked at all that you didn't pick up on the nuance of something so blatant. With so many posts would have figured you'd be a little less obtuse.

seriously though..you are fricking with him..right??cause if you are not, then we need to play some poker together, where i can take all your money.

ok.....you have fun buddy. I'm off to sleep. Long day tomorrow.
But I did enjoy the knowledge that there is one more person in the world dumber than I am.
FWIW....if God were held to 28 signees, he wouldn't honor your commitment.
