I know it is popular to bash Kiffin on this board but I have no problem with a coach showing his Heisman winning NFL 1st round draft picks to recruits...even if it is from another school. It shows what players can do in his system and what they can achieve. In fact, I wish CBJ had more well known NFL players to show recruits.

Dude, that's why that recruiting class fell apart because LK wasn't selling UT, he was selling himself.

I don't think that's true because if you remember that class we got justin hunter, da'rick rogers, tyler bray, and maurice couch so i'm not saying your necessarily wrong, but if we were to debate this I bet I would win. ( P.S, All the other classes after that weren't as good as that

Mo Couch was not in that class.
The only player that committed to Kiffin on your list was Bray.

This guy would be a centerpiece for this recruiting class. This visit kept UT in contention. At this point in recruiting, recruits just aren't typically committing until they've made all their visits. Their enjoying the OV's and I don't blame them. I hate the wait, but that's the game at this point. UT has a chance with Lawson--can't ask for more than that right now.

Classes fall apart because you have 3 coaches in 3 years. It would happen at any school with any recruiting tactic.

Hunter, Bray, and Rogers were a part of the 2010 class.... Couch was purely a Dooley recruit and was a part of the 2011 class. Hunter and Rogers committed to Tennessee while Kiffin was the head coach at USC... Kiffin's 2009 class completely fell apart... that's the class he was referring too anyways. The guys you mentioned were not in that class.

Ryan, If SEC schools can only sign 25 kids, why does A&M have 32 commits? Does that mean 7 will be asked to walk on if they all sign? Will some of those be asked to look elsewhere?
