I know it's mostly the loud kneejerkers that have been having a meltdown about our current recruiting class due to their lack of patience or understanding of how Jimbo operates every year, but a few things need to be pointed out.
While it may appear that sip is running away with this year's recruiting class (which is not the case), things are going to shift right back in our direction in a major way in the coming seasons as they prepare to join our league, and let me tell you why.
They have 2 of the "highest rated QB prospects" since ever on their team in Arch Minnion and Quinn Skewers. And word is on the interwebs is that Hudson Card should have won the QB battle over Ewers.
It does not bode well for their supposed savior at QB in Ewers who has already been in college for a season at Oh st and was the 4th stringer there, and was being beat out by the QB that took them to 5-7 last season.
There are a few things of note here:
1. Card is not a very popular candidate in Sipville with his apparent limited capabilities and lower ceiling, but still managed to make the decision difficult and/or outright win the battle but not get named starter.
2. Their other QB recruit from California was also an immensely overrated 5* that has barely even thrown any passes at the high school level, and I believe we all know how that one will turn out.
3. Sip has 3 total 5* QB's on the roster, including 2 with a near perfect score.
It is starting to look like Ewers may be the bust that we all knew he was going to be. Now, if arch manning also becomes the bust that we all expect with his subpar tape, average stats and little competition, then things are really going to take a turn for the worst for sip.
The negative recruiting will take care of itself if/when sip has 3 major busts at QB in a row with the most hyped QB's of the modern era just as they enter the SEC.
I'm not saying let's bring back the WRTS moniker again just yet. But, if things transpire as they appear they will, I'm not sure how we don't continue to dominate on the recruiting front for years to come…
