For those who care....

I'm glad to see a strong recruiting perception of our recruits. Other recruits will see this and do care. I love the fruits of the Rose Bowl win.

It's a great time to be a Frog!

We lead for #66 Wheeler

Have a good shot at #37 Fuller

And have heard inklings that #9 Agholor might camp this summer.

What a time for TCU football.

A very strong class so far and glad to see Matthews starting to get the recognition (the others were better known prior to committing). Of the rest of the group so far LaDarius Anthony probably the most underated, but Hunt, Johnson, Gilbert, Aune & Listenbee all big time recruits and should get some good recognition.

Pretty cool. Thanks for posting that. There is no doubt they our recruiting has gone to another level this year.

Now I'll check out of this thread before the 30 page tired debate on Rivals and its rankings begins.

So did I, but according to Rivals we have not.


Well in any case, this is great to see. I'm so proud of our team and its coaches, they're killing it out there.

I have confidence that the kids we're going after have the character that got us here to go along with their obvious talent.
 
This is unprecedented. 4 out of the first 10? The most we've ever had (well,since 2002) is 4, which was in 2009.

While star ratings do not guarantee on field performance, we at least seem to be getting the recruits we wanted first.

This is a startling testament to Coach Gary and his staff.

Thank you LHCGP!!!

Not that stars actually matter, but it's pretty impressive to see TCU's class getting some props. Texas is always going to get those high rated players, the hype machine does wonders. I expect them to land a few more 4*'s when its over. A&M is getting 2 more 4*'s tomorrow.

I believe Nance's issue is his knee, teams are waiting til the fall to see if he's recovered.... although it's possible I'm confusing him with someone else

I read that on Texags.com. How do they know?

Rival's 4 stars who are not in top 250 announced tomorrow. Maybe a Rivals mod posted on their site that two more of their recruits would be on that list. The PM mods told us ahead of time that TCU would have 4 on the top 250 list--They just didn't tell us who they were.

If some of these recruits want to come to TCU they better get on board the wagon pretty quick. There are more guys on those lists than we have ships! :biggrin:
