The Lions' Pride

Well, doesn't that just bite the big one.

Good luck to him. He conducted himself w/incredible class while being recruited.

With time when the season comes rolling around and BOB has a very exciting offense setup, do you think he will give us a chance? Or do you guys think that because of our sanctions, that no one in the top 1000 will give us a look? Serious question though. I ask this because the 2014 class that comes in will have chance to play in 3 bowl games (provided they are red-shirted), so do you think any high caliber players will give us a fair shot?

Yeah, it's going to be a fight to get top-flite kids interested in us, mostly due to the fact that the perception is already out there that we are DOA.

We have to fight that by

a) reinforcing that every kid we recruit from here on out will have a chance to play in a bowl game and
b) show that we can be competitive on the field despite the sanctions.
