2018 Recruiting Thread

[Jefffrog1993]

I have no idea if this is allowed (probably not), but what if during a commercial break we brought out the #CarterBoys18 in attendance in the South end zone to introduce them to the crowd at games? Seems like that would be a really cool way for them to get a standing ovation/cheer from the Frog Fam and make other prospects in attendance want to be a part of that. Thoughts? Totally against recruiting rules? Possibility?

I like it put them with NFL players alumni too.

I like your thinking outside the box. That is what I am talking about. Good idea.

I think either on 247 or here I asked that same thing about bball recruiting because I thought it was a great idea...general consensus is it's not allowed.

That's also a losing proposition IMO. We have a good atmosphere for games, but a standing ovation from 40,000 TCU fans is naturally going to pale before 100,000 Aggies, Vols, or whatever.

Yep, generally the tighter the recruiting rules are, the better it is for us.

Tight rules are one thing, enforcing them is another. Even if this were legal we all know how well it would be enforced against secsecsec.

You weren't around for the Dry era where you?

The Dry era proves his point, so maybe he was.

I seem to recall some very high profile recruits making their way to campus.

Big difference in landing talents and building a program.

If you want the recruits to get huge ovations then just send them out there with t-shirt guns. Don't even need to introduce them to the crowd. Seems like most of the people who go to our games view the chance for a free oversized t-shirt with the Ol' South logo on the back as the most exciting part of their week.

How about introducing all visitors to TCU stadium and just show a picture of the recruits on the board.

I emailed Del Conte (awesome that you get a quick response from him) and he said that it is against the rules. Bummer.

However the T-shirt gun idea is a good one and I wonder if that falls under those rules?

Neither of You see a liability problem of having an untrained, visitor of the University shooting things into a crowd?

On behalf of the late Maude Flanders, I agree.

No not at all?

I guess I was unaware that the 5'4" cheerleader who shoots them off went to basic training for a T-Shirt Cannon.

I've only seen Rangers using the cannon.

Ranger qualification for the pickle cannon seems like overkill. A day-seminar at Ft. Sill should cover them.
