Jeff I should be available just about anytime tomorrow night. Let me know what your schedule is like but it shouldn't be too difficult from my end this week.

[psusnoop]

I didn't see your message about watching Shark week with your son till after the fact, but I'd assume he was already in bed by the time I finished up. Sorry about week 6 there.

I lost Royster for 6 weeks due to a broken wrist last night. Looks like Green and Company are going to carry the load for me. I spent a little time throwing the rock around last night just to get comfortable.

[JeffHCross]

G, it should be just as simple for me. Home tonight by 7 or 8 ET at the latest.

Now we know the value of early visits. Snoop goes 3rd (-100) to a Hard Commit in a week.

No problems, he was already in bed. I was in the OD testing out more playbooks when I got your message.

Now we know the value of early visits. Snoop goes 3rd (-100) to a Hard Commit in a week.

If only Snoop and I wouldn't have had him in on the same week.

[psusnoop]

Thats right you had him in this week too. Very interesting......

This right here is all I need to know now, because I'm bringing in my recruits early and often for now on. This year is not possible now, but you better believe I want them in my house before anyone else has a chance to sweet talk them.

I just want to send a special thanks to everyone at the Endzone, you girls are the best!

[JeffHCross]

If only Snoop and I wouldn't have had him in on the same week.

Or if I hadn't gotten caught off guard by the fact that I wasn't able to get him in Week 6 as well. If I'd hopped on as soon as you sent out the message, I think all three of us would have had a Week 6 visit.

Guess I've gotta hope for a top WR in the offseason recruits now. Nobody above 3 stars isn't already in Top 3 mode. Recruiting has totally changed this year.

[skipwondah33]

interesting that Wisky jumped me in rankings.

[gschwendt]

interesting that Wisky jumped me in rankings.

We're better... which even a computer can see

[gschwendt]

Recruiting has totally changed this year.

I'll say. There are five players that I'm after that have soft-commits and only one of them is to a HUM team. I'm taking the gamble on all of them that I can change their minds...

[JeffHCross]

I'm taking the gamble on all of them that I can change their minds...

Well, that plus the fact that you really have no other choice. There are no fall-back guys this year.

[psusnoop]

I will admit that I love how tough recruiting is this year compared to last year.

In one of my other dynasties we have it set to Heisman recruiting and it is very tough but very real. The CPU is so aggressive that it makes it fun.

[skipwondah33]

We're better... which even a computer can see

lol, still doesn't explain us losing a spot. Seems like we would have had to lose...maybe I didn't beat the CPU bad enough.

[psusnoop]

We are in the Big 10 compared to the ACC remember,

[psusnoop]

What could be interesting to play out is if Wiscy (Gschwendt) and Penn State (myself) run the table since we don't play each other. Could have an all Big 10 Championship game. Now that would be funny.

Disclaimer- by no means do I think I stand a great chance at doing this, but my team is good enough to compete which allows me to entertain the idea and humor myself

[skipwondah33]

We are in the Big 10 compared to the ACC remember,

The Big 10's CPU teams are push overs too lol

[JeffHCross]

What could be interesting to play out is if Wiscy (Gschwendt) and Penn State (myself) run the table since we don't play each other.

I think it would be much more interesting if you both have a single loss to Ohio State.

DISCLAIMER: I'm pretty sure I'm going to get my tail kicked tonight. And when I play Penn State. And maybe even Michigan.

[Oneback]

Michigan plays Iowa tonight. After surviving MSU we will not be talking any smack about the "powerhouse" teams in the Big 10 until we actually beat someone rated higher than us.

[psusnoop]

LOL, considering I'm what 1 and 4 against you all time I'm not so sure about that. I'm just hoping to keep it close and maybe sneak out of Columbus with a W
