QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 5, 2013 -> 09:59 AM) But if you let the kid go, then you are back to being one under your limit, which gives you free reign to rob recruits from other schools. Thus, we have a signing date that locks people in. Some schools don't start their Fall semesters until after the first game or two. Can a guy play a game with a team and then decide to go to another school because he isn't enrolled? No because you cannot play until you are enrolled, you cant even practice. -

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 5, 2013 -> 09:23 AM) Whether or not somebody enrolled is irrelevant. Once you sign your LOI, the school you signed with stops recruiting whoever their second choice might be to fill that slot, and that guy signs with another school. It puts a uniform end date to the recruiting process so teams can move on with their plans. But if you want to use enrollment as the guideline, then ND can now go find some 4-star guy who signed a LOI with Michigan State and offer Vanderdoes' scholarship to him since he hasn't enrolled at his new school, right? And then Michigan State can now go find some 3-star guy who signed a LOI with Northern Illinois and offer their open scholarship to him since he hasn't enrolled yet, and then Northern Illinois can go find some 2-star guy who signed a LOI with Arkansas State and offer their open scholarship to him since he hasn't enrolled yet. Theres no limits to how many guys you sign, you know that. I just dont agree with it. Let the kid go. -

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 4, 2013 -> 05:12 PM) Bulls***. Most coaches agree with this move. You can't have guys signing NLI's and THEN transferring immediately. I'll pile on ND as much as the next guy, but not on this one. It has nothing to do with ND. You can sign pretty much unlimited guys so its not like he took a spot. And it's not a transfer if they just release him. -

QUOTE (SexiAlexei @ Jun 4, 2013 -> 04:49 PM) I have to agree with that though. If you start letting kids out of their commitment, what is the point in even having a national signing day or a letter of intent? And national signing day was what, 4 months ago? Give or take. I agree with it if the kid played or enrolled and wanted to transfer for athletic reasons (still doesnt always happen) but he hasnt suited up for them once. I dont like punishing 17-18 year old kids for making a decision too quickly BECAUSE of NLOID. -

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jun 4, 2013 -> 12:45 AM) I just don't understand how people can hit HR's all the time, or in my case, at all. Are you like 6'3?? Do you have a $300 bat? Are your fences 275 feet? Are your softballs filled with rubber? It just baffles me. In our league, we play 2 games a night, and we will see maybe 1 HR combined between the two teams, in 2 games. I just started hitting them so not sure. I actually use a wooden bat since its 16 in. This particular league has a fence and its short, you can google map it. But lately just been rocketing the ball for whatever reason. In 12'in i don't think I've ever gone deep. -

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jun 3, 2013 -> 06:32 PM) I'm calling BS on the Golson/Daniels paper angle. These kids arent that stupid. Anyone who has given a paper to a friend to "look at" knows exactly whats going to happen. Maybe you dont expect the entire thing to be copied (if that part is even true) but you do know that your paper is about to get plagiarised. If I was the starting QB whom the school wants to let play for them again that would be exactly my story. -
QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 3, 2013 -> 04:42 PM) And why did you do this, good sir? Had it for a few years and they made some nice upgrades like the 8.4 in touchscreen. My 2011 was one of the first made and I just had a feeling I was close to a mechanical issue. I walked off the lot with no more money down and the same payment. Win/win. Ended up with 2014 summit edition at invoice.
