I agree with cornhole! I see about 18 student-athletes that need to go ahead and make their decision to be part of what is going on in Troy! WHY? We have seen it before where players were on the fence and got caught by the barbed wire and were left hanging. Coaches are on the road selling AND parents need to be. The positives I see with early signing is removing the stress from the players and parents while allowing the coaches to focus after Christmas on the final few that need help to make a decision. Student-Athletes need to know that TMTDM only has limited seating available! My personal prediction is a minimum of five over the next 72 hours, but we have reserved seats for more IF they want to be seen as aggressive and hungry to be a TROJAN!

It might actually also benefit Troy in the fact that there’s been many instances where a P5 lost a guy and snagged a guy from Troy late. Signing tomorrow could help in those instances.

Heard CNB interviewed on jox radio. Said he expected all commits to sign tomorrow. If they don't, he'd consider them not committed ... then we'd have to decide if we wait on them or move on. I think he feels confident that we can compete for additional players. He had advise for some that are "fall back" options for power 5 programs ... don't get left out. Also, he said, sure ... there are a few elite power 5 programs we won't compete with for players ... but he said most lower power 5 programs we can and do compete with!! Love the confidence! Oh ... and he said he fully believed ... while we lose great players and leadership ... we'll be better next year!! Again ... is it September yet!!!

It will probably wind up hurting the bigger P5 programs more and may even make it a little more balanced. The chance that gets the herd cut down a tad and do not have to keep trying to herd the sheep till February.
Any of you guys going to watch the "Cherry fartbun Tartfart Cherry bowl tonight? I was listening to ESPNU radio and they were talking about the excitement around Kiffin etc.....

It's college football. I will be watching. re Kiffen. The squeaky bearing always gets the most attention. But in this case, doesn't seem to be a xerxes fitting to grease that man. If FAwhoo? wins we'll hear about it. If they lose, we'll still hear about it. BTW, FAwhoo? signed on for ten more years of drama today.

I have two people I know sending their kids there. Beautiful facilities and 36,000 students in a nice area (by S. FL standards, which isn't saying much) huge area to recruit from but I don't see Kiffen staying. FI Who is another story

KJ Robertson will be one to watch. He was a stud at the highest level of high school football in this state. He was one game away from playing for a 7A State Championship.

Blace Brown had the most receptions of all WRs in Georgia 6A football. We all know what kind of athlete we got. I think we're getting some real gems this season.

Keep an eye on twitter.com/_WYC90. He's our highest rated recruit, but has not signed yet. Would be a tremendous get at the DT position.
