Three years of hearing about how we're supposed to reload not rebuild and I'm watching that ESPN piece on replacing first-round draft picks and I just want to know where our next man up is supposed to come from. We lost a first-rounder to the NFL draft and the crystal balls for our 2027 class still aren't pointing our way on any of the five-stars. The 247 composite is not kind to us right now.
This official visit weekend needs to be the one where we actually close. I'm hearing noise that we've got a couple of silent commits sitting on their hands waiting to pop but I need to see the bumps on the 247 page before I believe it. Oregon is out here stacking five 5-stars and we're fighting for scraps in our own backyard. The staff better be working the bagman angle hard because if we whiff on this OV weekend the Big Ten is going to eat us alive next season.
We cannot keep losing the West Coast croots to schools that weren't even relevant five years ago. Time to flip the script.
