Doesn't seem like UCF gets much credit here but their season
Jan 11, 2014, 12:25 PM
|

meets all the criteria of a great season according to Tiger fans?
12-1
Won a BCS game
Conference champs
Only loss to a top 5 team
Why no love for the Knights?

treated like boise's first great run when people thought it was a a one-off. it UCF sustains like boise did, respect will certainly come.

Good comparison. It also seems like Louisville was "accepted" immediately by most folks, but they have had at least a couple good years I guess.

What game? It is a discussion, dude. Familiar with the concept?
Tennessee is awful and deserves no credit whatsoever. We lost to them. It was a terrible game. We deserve to be mocked for losing to such an inferior team. No reasonable Coot could argue against that.
Now can we get back to having a reasonable discussion about a college football team that has virtually nothing to do with either of our teams?

they just weren't talked about a lot, at all. Not just here. It says something when you're the 2nd best team in Florida. Hate to now have 4 major instate schools to split up that talent. Probably means less will leave the state.

Exactly. And one of the main reasons for my bringing it up. They could be a serious problem in recruiting for both of our schools if they continue to emerge. Maybe they pull from the other Fla schools some, but. More likely they do their work in the 100-150 range of Fla recruits where we both get good players from.

Right. Hanging out here for a while I can see that clearly the only thing ever discussed on here is specifically limited to Clemson football.

Soccer,
You know better than that. This is an active board and that makes it good. People are here for one thing. I could have gone to the UCF board and chatted with the 3 people that are online.
I asked a question about a team that had a great season and you guys twist it into something having to do with us?
Seriously, who is reaching here?

Certainly could be argued they did, which is amazing given they were virtually an unknown to start they season.
O Leary can coach and there is a bunch of talent down there.

This a Clemson board not a UCF board. We didn't play UCF, so of course you're not going to see them mentioned.

in the first place. So UCF's success wouldn't effect your team, because your team doesn't attract top talent from Florida.

It is true. Name one five star recruit you have signed
Jan 11, 2014, 1:44 PM
|

from Florida. I will save you the trouble, zero. I have followed recruiting since 1974, and SCAR's success in recruiting has almost always been heavy in SC, Georgia, some in NC, some in Florida (but not the elite in Florida and usually no more than a couple of players a year).
Using Rivals site as an exmaple, SCAR has only signed 3 players rated as a four star recruit from Florida from the current recruiting class (2014) back to and including the 2010 class (5 years worth). Clemson has signed 3 five star and 6 four star players from Florida over the same period.
When Clemson is successful, our best players are typically heavy from Florida, Georgia, and NC, with a lesser balance from S.C.
SCAR historically has recruited SC as good or better than Clemson, even when we were winning, and SCAR was losing. Out of state talent, and most of it from Florida, NC and Georgia, is where most of our stars have come from for the last 30+ years.

Like I said I'm not a recruiting guru, but I will say I don't put a lot of stock in the (stars). Coaches getting the players they want and developing them is far more critical. Not sure what Ace was rated but he was pretty good. Wasn't Bellamy from Florida?
But given your info, doesn't that make the discussion that much more relevant for this board in terms of UCF taking recruits from Florida?

Jan 11, 2014, 2:11 PM
|

for SCAR, albeit the closest thing in the last 10 years IMO, would be Ace Sanders.
Garcia was a trainwreck.
As for the UCF discussion, well, on ESPN's board, it is a decent topic, but not on our site. No one here really cares about UCF or USF. If the topic had been brought up by a Clemson fan, it might have gotten one response. Being brought up by a SCAR fan, in a year they had played and beaten UCF, seems to be a way of pumping your team, not UCF's recruiting prowess.

Certainly you can re read your list and see that UCF stands out of that crowd as being unexpected and right in the middle of both of our recruiting base.

program of all time. And they could have been our opponent in the orange bowl, if OSU didn't lose to MSU. Sorry but you are moron to compare Bama to UCF. If your team would have known UCF was going to be this good they wouldn't have scheduled them. Y'all won't be playing them anytime soon

You are accentuating my point. It was a total shock that UCF had the season they had and totally NOT a shock that BAMA did.
I am willing to completely ignore that fact that we played them this year (since I haven't mentioned it once) if you are for the sake of the discussion.

Stephen Garcia was a four star, but he sabotaged his own career. You had a 4 star rb from Florida but Spurrier ran him off once Lattimore came.

the last 5 classes.
You have never had a 5 star from there, we have had 3 just over the last five years, and I didn't go back any further than 2010. Signed C J Spiller, another 5 star out of Florida in 2006

Who cares about stars? Was one of your 5 stars Bellamy? Was one of our 3 stars Ace Sanders?
What was Shaq Wilson rated? How about Skai Moore? We get great players from Florida regardless of what rivals may think.
And the original point of the post was ......nevermind.

Sanders was not a five star, he was a four star. Stars don't
Jan 11, 2014, 2:23 PM
|

always translate, but it is pretty darn close. All the five star, and most of the four stars are loaded with offers from the best schools in the region/country. That is typically why they are rated so high.
Is it 100%? Heck no, but it is usually a very good indicator of the talent and potential a player has.

Your teams recruiting base is SC, NC, and GA. Outside of those three states your team doesn't pull highly rated recruits from other states.

BC is awful and their stadium sucks, plus who the hell wants to go to Boston? Adding another Florida school would have been awesome.

Your handle indicates you may have remorse for being a coot. Would 'professedcoot,' be a better handle or are you genuinely sorry about the coots thing?
